BOSTON - Paul Pierce talked to a few reporters on Monday at his
annual summer basketball camp at Basketball City just around the corner
from the TD Banknorth Garden on Monday, and said that he'll be getting
an MRI on his knee but doesn't expect to have to undergo surgery.
Pierce said the knee is still sore, but is getting better, and noted
that he's been treating his injury like a sprain that normally takes
three-four weeks.
I've still got some soreness in it, so hopefully it's nothing
major requiring surgery, Pierce said. I plan on getting in there this
week, getting the treatment and the MRI and making sure I take care of
my body. I doubt if I need any surgery. It's getting better and better.
I'm gonna get the MRI just to take the extra precaution but I don't see
any surgery in my future and I just plan on getting treatment until
it's all the way healed.
