KG's constant trash talk, Rondo's pestering (he's like KG, not afraid of anything, but without the talk), the Jet's antics.

And Pierce, who's so chill all the time, nailing a three in your face to win it.

  • Everyone's excited for the new era.
To be honest, I'd picture our team taking the game real serious.  Most pickup games i've seen are just a bunch of players messing around, throwing oops, lots of turnovers, etc.

But I'd imagine the team playing the C's wouldn't score because KG, Pierce, and Rondo would be playing some lockdown D.

pick up games consist of players all trying to be the hero, shooting 3's. thats all people do in pick up games, shoot 3's and foul like crazy and pretend they didnt foul.

Pierce isn't chill all the time.  He's known as one of the biggest yappers and trash talkers in the league.  I'm not sure he ever tops KG's "Paint your face, Clown" taunting of Howard but Pierce is said to be pretty vicious.  If he was playing in a pickup game with regular Joes, he would slaughter them verbally for the whole game and a long time after.

I'd hit the offensive glass hard.  Plenty of points to be had in there, unfortunately.

Rondo, Pierce, Garnett-BOS

Nash, Bryant, Howard-LAL

Wade, James, Bosh-MIA

Westbrook, Durant, Ibaka-OKC

Parker, Ginobili, Duncan-SAS

Holliday, T. Young, Bynum-PHI

George, Granger, Hibbert-IND

Paul, Billups, Griffin-LAC

Conley, Gay, Gasol-MEM

Williams, Johnson, Lopez-BRK

I think an NBA street ball, three on three tournament during the summer would be fun to see.  I like our chances, but, yet again, the Lakers and Heat would be pretty nasty.

I'm still picking the Celtics, but the Spurs threesome would be pretty tough, too.  Those guys have played ball together for an awfully long time.

Ugh, i still remember when pierce did that 3 on lebron in game 5. I thought the series was over and we had it. So depressing man. I can't believe we let that series slip away.

Pierce was voted the leagues number two trash talker behind kg according to a sports illustrated players poll. I don't think he'd be very chill, he'd be just as loud as kg.

I remember that.  Kobe was top 5, but we had Sheed and Nate at 3 and 4.  KG was 60% ahead of 2nd place haha.

Can't be a coincidence.  Our GM is Danny Ainge after all.

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
