I'm sure we've all seen the reports of Pierce spending time with Tatum this summer and now showing up at training camp as well (Pierce and Eddie House having some fun:

It's nice for the young guys to hear from the ones who have been there before but I'm happy about it for Pierce, too.
I wasn't concerned when Pierce lost his job at ESPN but there have been a few incidents since then (particularly one on a live stream with KG) that have added to and made me a bit worried he's lost control a bit, as a relatively young man with too much money and not enough to keep him occupied.
Tatum says he thinks Pierce lost 15-20lbs while they were working out. As someone who grew up watching Pierce, I'm hoping for the best for him and that if he was going off the rails, he's back on.
