Yes..Walker has looked bad lately...
1 rebound in the warriors game? From a power forward? Maybe you could let 
that go if it was from the point position, but honestly thats pathetic..

 Pierce has looked amazing though. He is really passing better then I thought 
he ever could. I never though of Pierce as an above average passer...but wow. 
He has somehow improved that aspect of his game. The guy is a total stud at 
his position.
Pierce doesn't need this gimmick offense..he would be great on any team in 
the league..instantly making any one of them winners IMHO.  

I am fully convinced this team should just be built around Pierce not Walker 
like it is now. The folks who thought Walker was the superior player need to 
wake up. KA had a higher +/- rating them him last year. The guy just isn't 
that good.

Don't get me wrong..Walker can be a great player at times..but if we could 
move him for Elton Brand and pick up a real point I wouldn't mind. Shammond 
is better then Blount though...so I don't think we need to trade him for 
Blount and a pick. LOL. 

About Andre Miller:

NO way. Pierce hates the guy. Pierce was championing him as an overrated ball 
hog in the World Championships, and judging by the way he has "transformed" 
the clippers I suspect he was right. PP is totally ticked about how the US 
basketball powers namely George Karl screwed him over. There is some serious 
bad blood there I guarantee it. This is likely good for Celtics fans..as he 
might pull this team thought the playoffs this year, but I still agree he is 
being disrespected.
