I'm not saying he tanks the game, I'm saying he doesn't have the "it" that other stars have had. If you are a boston fan and you think he is OK then I'm OK with that. There are fans here in DC that think the Redskins are going to the Superbowl just because they have Joe Gibbs. They also think the Wizards are good. I lived in Phoenix when Buddy Ryan was hired and they thought they had arrived. I mention these things to say I understand fan loyalty. I have to keep it real. For instance, I like the 49ers. They will probably be horrible and I will not defend a pro athlete or make excuses. I like the Lakers but after the playoffs something is going to change and it will probably not be for the good. If you think there isn't anything wrong with Pierce then that is fine. I'm sure the Pacers wouldn't mind playing them as long as he is on the team every year in the playoffs. Great players aren't always winners. That is purely my opinion or Pierce and if something changes then my opinion of him could change but I don't see it happening. If you don't agree I understand but it is an opinion that wasn't given to me like I see way too often. If I shouldn't have posted this then I apologize. I just love to talk about sports, almost all sports.
PS - I can't say the way Pierce looks on this board and it isn't a term or word I use anyway.
