The best early glimpses come in exhibition games. But even without the benefit of statistics, there was visible evidence the Celtics are an improved team. It started with the appearance of Walker. He looked thinner and more defined in his Celtics uniform, most noticeably his upper arms. Cocaptain Pierce added some healthy heft to his 6-foot-6-inch frame. Then there was Vin Baker, who showed up more than 15 pounds lighter with a body reminiscent of his early years in the league.</div>
Nice, just as I called it in the NBA forum a few days ago, now feast your eyes. I am happy for the guy and hope to see him play soon.
