I spent the majority of my afternoon on the road, and since I am in the greater Philadelphia area, naturally I was listening to 97.5 The Fanatic. I can't speak for all of the programs that came before Mike Missanelli's show since he was the show on when I got on the road, but a lot of the talk today focused around the potential of an Andre Iguodala trade for Paul Pierce. When I first heard them talk about it, I just figured it was a hypothetical trade where the hosts and callers could give their input on the idea.

Well, this was depressing. What's even more depressing is I'm seeing some of the negative comments toward the Celtics on Celtics boards that I've been amazed at on the others.

The Lakers and Celtics could have checked the ball after every possession rather than sprinting to the other end of the court, a rules change that Derek Fisher certainly would have preferred. This was basketball played at the pace of a balding man with dentures, a plodding, grinding, triceratops-type affair...
