Not good news, at least we still have a lot of veterans and Big Baby will be back here very shortly as well.

Is this like the KG knee injury that was not serious?

Honest question. I know its different injuries but could this be more serious than we expect.

I don't know... Pierce played last night and was 0-10 shooting before making his first basket w/ 6 minutes left in the game. He still drove to the hole and took 13 free throws making 12 of them and finished w/ 19 points. Doc just gave KG the night off last night just to sit a night against Indiana at home. The thing that scares me is we don't really have a "filler" for Pierce's position on the court. It's going to be either Tony Allen, JR Giddens or Bill Walker.

Pierce will be back the next game after sitting out the first half in a wheel chair.

Were talking about the fake ass Willis Reed, right?

Sounds like karma to me.

Barkley and Kenny Smith were ripping Pierce a new asshole last week on TNT. Barkley's quote "How the hell do you leave the court on a wheel chair then walk back out two minutes later? If Paul Piece wins this award me and Kenny aren't gonna give it to him"

I swear people are still bringing this up from two seasons ago? Do people have to keep being reminded that it was the TRAINERS that told his teammates to put him in the wheelchair because he said he heard a pop sound he didn't go in the chair on his own!! But whatever people believe to make themselves feel better.

The dude fucking faked it. He was in tears. Take your homer glasses off and look at something objectively for once.

It's not just the fact that he had to go in a wheel chair..

BUT, the dude looked like he ripped his leg clean off.. He was in fucking tears!

That was pretty embarrassing for Pierce, that's why it gets brought up.

But great win from the C's today without him. Even though it was the ugliest basketball game I've watched in years. You can tell those guys weren't at all focused to play on Christmas day.
