Danny Ainge seems determined to destroy all the good will he has built up putting together the all Super Veteran Squad. People murmured when he traded Jeff Green to get Ray Allen. But then it seemed like genius because that trade helped get Garnett into the fold (Presence of Ray Allen a Plus--Disappearance of Wally Sczerbiak a Double Plus).
So now, Ainge apparently thinks that the key to building good will is to sign old 3-point shooters.
How else to explain this pursuit of Reggie fucking Miller? How many things are wrong with this idea?
1. Reggie is 42. Basketball isn't baseball or golf. 42 year olds, no matter how in shape they are can keep up with 20 year olds on the perimeter. Even if Reggie can stroke his shot (which I have no doubt he can) how is going to keep up on defense?
2. Reggie has been retired for 2 years. Playing horse with his sister at the Miller Compound hasn't keep him in NBA form.
3. Reggie is a fucking Pacer. The Idea of him wearing Celtic Green is just sick.
4. The Celtics now have a chucker Head Coach, a chucker Older Veteran in Ray "Jesus, Jesus!" Allen, and a younger chucker in Paul Pierce. On what planet is the missing piece of that team a chucker old enough to be a rookie's father?
To summarize, Celtics fans, get ready, because clearly Danny Ainge is bent on destroying this franchise. He's come so close before. If Kevin McHale hadn't helped him out, he would have done it this year. He's still looking for ways to do so. And Danny Ainge gets what he wants. Reggie may have had the sense to say no, but will Chuck Person?

How is Paul Pierce a "chucker" averaging 18 shots per game for 26 pts?
Idiot.
If you'd want Paul taking any less than those 18 shots you are on crack. They wouldn't have won a single game.
Well, "Anonymous", infantile name-calling aside, I suggest you brush up on your reading-for-context skills, or toughen up a little.
How you read this post as a criticsm of Paul Pierce is beyond me.
Pierce throws up a lot of shots; so does Allen. Why would anyone, with two highly skilled shooters try to recruit a 42 year old man who hasn't played in two years.
The point of the post, you see, was to critize Danny Ainge. You can tell because that was the point that I actually made.
Perhaps, Dear Anonymous, you are the idiot crack-smoker. Riposte!
danny ainge but together a winner.. KG ALLEN AND PIERCE are all classy guys, a rarity in this league, and they are all starving for a title. This isnt A.I. Melo, who are "chuckers" and only care about personal statistics. These guys only want to win, and they will do a great job of it.. mark my words.
p.s. i am a different anonymous
