And then I’m in there with Dennis Johnson and I’m speaking with him and I’m just learning so much from him. It was a great workout, man. I had a blast.” Herald: Kobe finds much to talk about with C's, Lakers Of course the Celtics can win a player over with their history and aura... and this was back when ML Carr was coaching.  Imagine what he'd think coming in and working out for Doc Rivers.  It'd be better than playing for Mike Brown, that's for sure.  I do wonder sometimes what would have happened had the Celtics drafted Kobe instead of Antoine Walker?  Would they stil have been in ...
