COMMENTS:  Missed most of this game through sheer stupidity (Daylight Savings 
Time, arggh!) which was on NBC.  Bird was a late scratch due to back 
spasms--according to today's paper, it was coming on for several days and they
almost decided not to play him against Indiana on Friday (so why *did* they play
him on Friday?).  Expect him to miss at least the next couple of games.  Bagley,
McHale, and Lewis were big for Boston in the fourth.  Chicago had the advantage
in most categories except for the one that matters, basically because they just
plain shot terribly.  Between them, Bagley and Dee Brown covered all 48 minutes
at the point for a combined 23 pts, 5 rebs, and 11 assts.

Boston used only eight players with amazing egalitarianism, while Chicago's 
Big Three of Pippen, Grant, and Jordan averaged over 40 minutes apiece.  
Boston has quite possibly the best eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh players 
in the league right now in Douglas, Kleine, Fox, and Pinckney (in no particular 
order), but it's the top seven that really matter. and Portland, Chicago, 
Cleveland, and Golden State have the advantage there.

IT FIGURES:  The Celtics have now beaten every team in the league this year,
with one exception--the mighty Timberwolves (0-2).
