Hes eeeeeee-vil.

Name the team after him, I say. "Paul Pierce All-Stars" is better than The
Eastern "If half of us were playing in the west we'd be sitting on the
bench" All-Stars

What for? Doing something that half the centers in the NBA get away with

Who doesn't know how to dribble. Kenny had 10 assists, missed two free

Unfortunately you have a point there.

I'm having trouble working out who the greater bust is: Kenyon Martin or
Jerome Moiso?

In the draft yes I would agree seeing that half the drafts class is PG. If
they dont come away with something good then we'll be in trouble....
