I totally agree Grandmaster C.

Pierce is a hard read to guage. On one hand it looks like Boston will throe him under the bus... and the other hand it looks like they throw down the red carpet. As for his game... if there was a way to pair Dirk/Josh Howard/Paul Pierce... you do it. Pierce shoots well when he doesn't have to force shots. The last few years in Boston he's been forcing shots a la Stackhouse and his FG% has been horrible. But he can handle the ball, defend the ball, rebound the ball... and can score.

(Btw, could you throw in Marquis Daniels to Boston? He might be enticing to them instead of Stackhouse or Van Horn.)
