Still waiting for the reward. I watched the refreshing box score for the last 2 1/2 minutes of last night's game against the T'wolves. When I started Pierce had played 29 minutes and scored 29 points. While I was watching he got an assist on a Jefferson dunk. But the Celts went from up five to tied, with the ball, with 26.something to go. They got a 24 second violation!!! Ricky Davis, former Celtic Ricky Davis, scored the game winner with .2 left. Much-maligned former Celtic Mark Blount scored 20.
How does Pierce do it? He's been out forever with the "stress reaction", just got out from two days in the hospital, and he goes for 29 points and more minutes than Shaq's playing after two weeks back. What would Pierce accomplish with a Shaq or Duncan drawing mega attention in the low post? I hope Al Jefferson is rounding into a guy who'll give us the answer next season, though I noticed Doc Rivers was subbing Kendrick Perkins for him on D at the end of last night's loss.
I might have to go out for a couple months with a stress reaction to the way they're going.
By the way, the photo is from SI's pictures of the week.
