Good point. After five seasons with the Celts, Pierce has be frustrated
by ending up with Delk, Blount, and Bremer as the only additions to
the same old tired nucleus of himself, Walker, Battie, Williams, and
McCarty. But he is, believe it or not, still only 25 yrs. old, and the old
man (Walker) is still only 26 yrs. old.
I've read this idea a number of times on the list -- that the Baker
Trade (which I agree is probably the worst in Celtic history) closes
the door on the "Pierce Era" (as opposed to the "Pierce & Walker Era)
and that we should therefore "blow-up" the team. I just don't
believe that's true.
