PAUL PIERCE RUMORS & GOSSIP

Boston Celtics Draft Prospect: Giannis Adetokunbo

If the Celtics choose to rid themselves of Paul Pierce this , the team will have a need to add another wing. One player that fits the mold is Greece native Giannis Adetokunbo. Adetokunbo, 18, is undoubtedly the biggest mystery in this year’s draft class as he was unknown throughout the international community until recently.

The Question of Burning Out/Fading Away: The Boston Celtics Conundrum

(Note: This was written on Tuesday the 18th, by which time sources had reported the Clippers walking away from trade talks and Danny Ainge himself declared the trade “dead.” But as far as I know, an hour after publication the trade may end up happening, rendering this article useless. But, you know…whatever.) Well…How Did We Get Here? The first thing that should be addressed...

Random Thoughts on the Paul Pierce Domino

 The situation that the Celtics are in this off season is a tough one.  The first roster decision likely to be made, and one that will affect every other one is what to do with Paul Pierce.  Celtics GM, Danny Ainge, has options and I'm sure he is going to explore every one of them to the fullest before making the decision. Pierce is in the last year of his contract and will...
