I'm taking pierce. I think it's easier to Find a dirk type of player then a pierce type scorer. One thing that separates it for me is that Dirk almost singlehandedly carried his team to the playoffs nearly every year. And also put the team on his back for his lone championship. Pierce had never made an ECF before getting the Big 3 together. I have a lot of respect for Pierce. The gap between them isn't huge, but like I said, I'll make the same choice every time.

Should the Celtics trade the #1 pick or keep it? We know if they keep it, the choice is Fultz.
Do you take a chance on Butler or George knowing they may not re-sign after the season? You could have Fultz and say Gordon Hayward, and have Hayward for the long haul. To me, that's the better option. Could potentially trade Avery Bradley or put a package together to trade for Butler using next year's BKN pick as well.
So many possibilities thanks to that other team in New York.

How about James Jones making it to his 7th straight Finals? Today's John Salley? Or Robert Horry, for you Spurs.

I may honestly be on the "trade Isaiah" bandwagon. The liability he presents on defense may not be worth the offensive production (plenty of scorers in this league) and his value won't be any higher than it is now. If everybody was smart, PG13 would be a sign-and-trade to Boston and there would be many many ECF appearances in the future. But George wants to cut his career short by joining a rebuilding squad just so that he can play in SoCal. I have no idea about Butler, or any idea as to what Chicago needs to do going forward.

I checked the last 30 years for a guy who can get you 60 threes, 60 blocks, 600 rebounds, and 1600 points. Guys who did it once:CB34 Pippen KAT Employee Number Eight The Human Highlight Film Guys who did it twiceLarry Legend Cousins The Slim Reaper King James The Matrix One guy did it NINE TIMES anybody care to guess who that guy was?

However, I'm of the mindset that I don't think they could win anything even with PG or Butler without IT as the #2. I mean, the guy did average 29ppg this year. While I also think they'd be better in the long run trading IT, I don't know if they can win now if they do.

At ITs salary it's ridiculous to trade him right now. How do you trade a guy who had the playoff experience he had? I say experience because of what happened in his personal life that he pushed aside while on the court. He may be everything he ever will be but he has greatness in him. Heart can't be taught nor bought. But I think Boston should keep the pick, choose Fultz and look to move the Nets' 2018 pick for Butler. I don't know if Chicago owns its own pick next year but if they can get it back in a deal, it may be a pretty high pick, without Butler on the team. If George comes to his senses, make a run at him. It's worth a phone call, like any other deal. Hayward makes them better but I don't think he makes them world beaters. But if he can be gotten in free agency along with Butler or PG13, that's a solid squad that can compete for titles. There's a small window if they want to snatch a ring from the Lebrons or the Warriors. If they don't want that, then just keep using those stockpiled picks, but why bring in Horford?

kobe played in the west bron has played in the weakest time period in the weakest division ever in sports, c'mon really the wizards, raptors, hawks and yes the 07 pistons are in that category .. not even close... Bill Russell greatest center of his time but he was playin against 6'4" centers competition was beyond weak same thing with james. bron is easily top 10 all time but to me hes isn't at the kobe, tim duncan level yet

this a watered down league i don't think theirs any debate about that with all the flops and traveling, the lapse of defense league wide, the wing players get away with so much crap while post players get hacked and scratched and clawed with no whistle. no wonder post players are going extinct.

I'm at Six Flags in San Antonio. Just saw a black dude wearing a John Stockton jersey.
I mean, you see white dudes wearing black NBA players all the time, but how often does this happen? Lol
