Nahh, never hated him as a player.
He was a good player.
He was one of the dirtiest in the game (Heck, most Celtics fans will agree he deserved to get bit) and he's the only player I've ever seen pull up and take a 3 on a 1 on none fast break. (and it wasn't a close game and he wasn't going for some scoring record).
That being said, I was ok with some of his moves, giving him the benefit of the doubt... in all honesty, O'brien doesn't suprise me. I figured he was gone when Ainge first got here.
O'brian has coached a 3pt and defensive style, mostly because that's the players he has.
Aingle is looking for a run the ball offense... like show-time or the 80's Celtics. Pitino tried that here, didn't work... don't have the players...
I find it funny in the walker deal he got a white gaurd that wears ainges old #...
