Patriotsfatboy1 1,433 Posted February 23, 2007 He was one of my favorite players growing up. I remember seeing him play for the Phoenix Suns in Phoenix before he was traded. I remember saying to some old guy next to me (who was smoking a cigar) that he would be a nice fit in the Celtics lineup (the first part is true, the 2nd part ) I have heard that he ballooned up like a tick recently, which is a shame.
