Watching ESPNEWS right now Ric Bucher says that Paul says is a mild sprain and not serious... THANKGOD!

That is what he said last night before the x-rays, I believe.

Heck Shelden's tweet could just be a shorter term injury, not the worst case scenario. If Paul/KG/etc. told him he was going to miss a week or two the tweet makes sense.

Sadly a season ending injury would also fit the context.

Here's hoping that he is referring to being cut because the celtics need the cap space after trading Ray for Wade and Mario CHalmers.

I think he is just referring to another injury in general since they have had so many this year.

Bucher or Paul?

This is what Paul was quoted saying last night.

Agreed.  I still think Pierce's foot is the most likely scenario, but a close second is another injury at practice today.  "When it rains it pours" does not necessarily mean something catastrophic, just that things keep adding up.

I want to believe this, but the tone of the tweet is extremely ominous. I think the Celtics are not going to be too happy with Shelden if it is related to Pierce's foot.

I'm not sure Shelden Williams put much thought about the essence of his words. He probably found that this was consistent with his general feeling of "THIS SUCKS!" Hopefully Pierce is healthy but you can't help but create the possibilities, one of which is Pierce with a broken foot considering that these two things are coinciding with one another.

You don't think it would be ominous if KG's knee is acting up again, and they are going to shut him down some more?

I am just saying it is early to assume that Pierce has a broken foot.  But I am not saying I don't think it could be very bad news.

Hey, Mister criticize every fan who does not agree with you, if Pierce is hurt and done for the season, there is no sense in waiting around to break up the team.
