WOULD YOU.....

[Diesel]

I'm just thinking about something here....

Would you take Vin Baker to get Paul Pierce?

I mean, if it were possible, would you complete the deal of:

SAR/Theo to Boston for Vin Baker/Paul Pierce.

I'm just wondering what kind of things people would say.

In a ny minute, love "the truth"

but like Danny Ainge said when asked about all the rumors concerning Antoine Walker, everyone is available for the right deal if it comes along except the cornerstone of our franchise, Paul Pierce.

Paul Pierce is one of the best NBA 2-GUARDS in the minds of the average NBA FAN. To the celtics, hes their Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady. Would never happen. Celtics said that pierce is untouchable. Shaq called him "THE TRUTH"

that being said + the question

"Reef + Ratliff cant go to the playoffs in Atlanta what makes us think theyre gonna make the playoffs in Boston?" comes up so Boston wouldnt do it (and no Reef/Ratliff/Walker prob wont get it done since we had Terry/GRob).

with those 2 in mind, i dont think it'd happen....

Tracy McGrady (the best SG in the EAST)

PPG 32.1

RPG 6.5

APG 5.5

SPG 1.65

BPG .79

FG% .457

FT% .793

3P% .386

MPG 39.4

Paul Pierce

PPG 25.9

RPG 7.3

APG 4.4

SPG 1.76

BPG .78

FG% .416

FT% .802

3P% .302

MPG 39.2

if Pierce shot a little higher %, he'd prob be mentioned in the same class as Tracy McGrady/Kobe Bryant.

I understand that.. BUT Ainge needs some wiggle room.

Getting rid of Baker would mean a lot.

Then think of this lineup:

Theo/SAR/Walker/Brown/Anderson....
