RE: Pierce needs to sit

[OzerskyJA <OzerskyJA@cmog.org>]

I guess we can all see for ourselves that Pierce is plenty healthy
when he has the ball in his hands.  Like a lot of players, his health
problems (not that he has any) disappear when he gets to play the
part of the game he likes.  Playing defense against the Vancouver
Grizzlies was apparently not somthing he felt like doing badly enough.
"drifting away" like Dobie Gray has always been a knock on Paul.
We'll see what will happen this year.
