Paul Pierce recently spoke about teammate Kevin Garnett who will be an unrestricted free agent come July 1st and how he'd like for Garnett to remain in Boston.
‘He’s been everything for my career, just his locker room presence, his desire, his determination, his leadership,’ Pierce said. ‘I’ve said before when Kevin first got here, he really changed the culture of everything we did around here, from the practice habits to the on-court discipline. He made everybody accountable, from the ballboys, to the chefs to the guy who flew the plane. Everybody was accountable. It was just tremendous to have him around, just the culture he brought. ‘It would be great for me to end my career with Kevin. I have a couple of years left and who knows what his future is going to bring. Hopefully, management can do something to bring him back, maybe add some pieces to this team that we need to get us over the top. If not, it’s been a tremendous ride.’

Dont c why not. Allen also they will still have money 2 add more pieces 2. If guys stay healthy Dont c why they cant still challenge for the east behind chicago and miami
ReplyDeletebc lets be serious they can't stay healthy all at the same time and at 37 they aren't getting any better. time to go young get players who can play the whole season and improve, so they can learn from what vets are left. from a buisness standpoint its just just a much better investment. I'm surprised pierce didn't at least mention ray tho.
DeleteWell there's young guys who can play but can't stay healthy. ( Derrick Rose)
ReplyDeleteOkc would easily beat Miami if they had Rondo. Westbrook is always taking 25 shots
ReplyDeleteWestbrook will get better n time but that would b a good trade for both teams. Or trade westbrook for cp3.
