SUPERSTARS

[Dorine Pratt <norine@sover.net>]

I read today in the Boston Globe about how the NBA has been touting
Grant Hill as the next Michael Jordan, but he's too nice!  Not cocky,
not a showoff, says he doesn't have all the answers, etc.  Said MJ has
never been accused of being too nice, though people like him.  Said he
lives basketball and some even believe he bets on it!  My whole point
is, if Antoine keeps improving the way he is, he just might be the next
superstar.  And, he's cocky, but so was Bird.  He used to taunt the
other team and even his own, sometimes.  Antoine has a long way to go,
of course, but he just might be in that league some day.

On another note, I hope they come up with some nicknames for some of
these guys soon.  Tyus?  Antoine?  Maybe old Cornbread on the radio side
will come with some, he used to be good at that.  Nothing wrong with
their names, please don't misunderstand me, but a few nicknames would be
easier to shout out at a game when you get excited.
