    hey I hear celtics say no one is untouchable and are looking for a pg. Would you do a Paul Pierce and 16th pick for Steve Francis and Eddie griffin? There's bound to be a adequate pg with the draft pick. Or sign a pg with the exception. Pierce can play Small foward too.
    So the lineup would be
    PG/Draft pick or FA
    SG/Mobley
    SF/Paul Pierce
    Pf/Taylor/2nd rounder pick
    C/YaoMing

    I'de honestly do it. Doesn't leave ya too thin and wont make ya any worse than last year.And if we resign Posey pierce moved to SG. Much better than the Allan Houston trade rumor.lol

    Yes! Steve Fracis and Eddie Griffin for Paul Pierce? Hell yeah, Paul Peirce is a top 10 player in the NBA.

    No because:
    1) Francis can be just as explosive as Pierce.
    2) There is probably no 16th pick in this draft that would be of any higher potential than Eddie
    3) Further weakens our Guard situation and further clogs our SF position

    This is a hard one, but I would say no right now because I want to see what JVG can do with Francis and Griffin (if he doesn't get traded) for atleast a season.

    -G'day-

    HECK NO.

    Mobley and Pierce together?!?

    UHH...HECK NO!!!

    I would love Pierce though. If we can somehow get Paul Pierce without giving up Steve Francis or Yao Ming......we would be unstoppable!!!!!

    No, Pierce is good, but not great. Steve is in the same category as him, not a superstar yet, but in the tier right below that of one. Both are definite franchise players though.

    Superstars:
    Shaq
    Tim Duncan
    Kevin Garnett
    Kobe Bryant
    TMac
    maybe Iverson,

    and then everyone else.

    The second tier of stars are pretty good, don't get me wrong, but those guys listed above are great.

    Poor Yao would never see the ball ... well, of course, except for rebounds

    That is what I think, Paul Pierce is a baller, and he steps it up in the playoffs. After making this deal, I would try to move Mobley too.
