INTC will not jump, since it didn't do enough R&D. It made up the
short fall in technology through acquisitions. The danger of
acquisition is hard to integrate.

Mary,
RE:"Spree is a loser. He couldn't win in college. He couldn't win in High
School. How is he going to win in the NBA?

WRT Indiana (vs San Antonio) Johnny Cochran said it best: It won't fit
(the championship ring) if you can't (create) shot - unless of course Larry
gets over the thing he has against Jalen Rose (what is that all about?).

Random thoughts: NBA players are too big - playing on courts that were
not designed for modern day sized players. They should either reduce the
number of players to four or play like the way the girls in Iowa have to
play - half the players can't cross mid court.

Rebecca Lobo's Mom can teach these guys how to play the half court
game."

Now now Mary, you sound like an bitter New Yorker....
Say what you want about Spreewell but the guy is one heck of a neck choker. <G> Where did Spree go to high school and college, BTW?
jalen is one of the few Pacers that can actually create a shot. Bird seems to have played him a lot last night. It was Larry Browns doghouse where Jalen resided.
As far as the court being to small for the players. Probably so but I'd either raise or lower the basket. Naismiths origial game description called for putting the peach basket high enough so no one could dunk. Now if you lowered it, that would eliminate the need to be tall.
As far as Lobo, I could take her one on one anytime.

Jim
