Yes I agree.  An injury to Pierce would be awful.

An injury to Kidd would be also....as well as an injury to O'Neal in
Indy...or Tmac in Orlando.  What's the significance of mentioning it?  An
injury to a star player hurts their team's chances.  Right?  What happens to
the Spurs if Duncan goes down?  Or Phoenix if Marbury goes down or Minny if
KG goes down?

Same story...different cities.
