MORE BRASS BS

< The team has also set up a vague target date of around Jan. 19 for 
Pierce’s return, according to coach Doc Rivers, though it could be 
pushed back.
      
“That’s the earliest,” Rivers said of a date that features a home game
 against Sacramento, followed the next night by a road game in 
Washington. “It could be longer than we anticipate. That is not a 
guaranteed date.” > - Murphy, Herald

Follow the game attendance. Already way below expectations
this season,   if it slips further, Pierce will return sooner than later. 
If it holds steady, Pierce will return later than sooner.     Having 
Pierce out is manna from Heaven for The Three Stooges™ 
(Wyc/Danny/Doc), now that they have officially replaced the
original Three Stooges (Obie/Wallace/Papile). 

Pierce's injury is the perfect PR excuse for fielding a second-rate, 
lottery-bound team which it was even with Pierce.
