Mike - I know it took a while to knock off Atlanta, but, why is it so easy for the press and broadcasters (not you or Tommy!), to
jump off the bandwagon of a team that has been so successful all year. Kevin Garnett is taking it on the chin from alot of these guys, and it just doesn’t seem fair. Nor does it seem right that PP has had such bad press also. I guess I take it personally when someone attacks the team they way they have this last week. Written by a die hard, long time
Celtic fan who watched Tommy play!!

Mike: Positive news unfortunately doesn’t sell newspapers or increase talk show ratings. Hopefully fans like yourself will have the last laugh.

Rajon vs. Delonte

Back in seattle I can remember that Delonte kind of got the better of Rajon. How do you think that match up will go this series?
Personally, I think Rajon has grown so much since then that he might overwhelm delonte with his D. Delonte still needs to stay close to Delonte to keep him honest at the 3 pt line.

Mike: I’ve always felt that Delonte could be a contributing player on a good team. He showed that last nite and in his time with the Cavs. That said, I like Rondo to ultimately get the edge in the series. Rajon just does more things and has superior quickness.

Mike,
I remember the days when Tommy used to always say, “I Love Walter.”
He seems to love Leon Powe so much, maybe he should start a “I Love Lean.”
Just a suggestion.

Mike: Think that’s coming next season.

Danny Ainge said on WEEI the other day that the best defense for Lebron is to make him shoot, even if he does get hot, not matter what? Do you think it is a wise plan to allow him to shoot all day whether it goes in or not, and keep him from getting to the basket? Thanks Mike!

Mike: Lebron scoring lots of points does not equate with Cavalier wins. It’s the big rebound and assist nights that do. I agree with Danny.

What is Leon Powe’s ultimate potential? Obviously you and Tommy are in love with him, for good reason, but could he ever be more than a hard-working, tough minded rebounder scorer off the bench? Is he a starter in this league? Thanks Mike! I love Tommy’s nickname of “The Garbageman” for Leon.

Mike: Ultimately Leon could be another Charles Oakley - Anthony Mason type. They both had long and productive careers.
