I know T will is not a marquee vet , but why get him?? All that effort so he can rot at the bench.

Knowing doc i bet he will get to play in his 10th game before he gets let go

The whole team is tired and we need another man to provide min on the court.
He has more of a chance not being a big man.

In case you haven't been paying attention recently... Pierce has been shooting like crap, but since Rondo went down he's averaged 16.3 points, 9.1 rebounds and 7.1 assists and Boston is 8-2. 

It's why I've been saying for the past two years in the face of all the Rondo hype that our best two players were STILL #1 - KG and #2 - Pierce.  Nothing has changed.  Pierce is still the 2nd best player on this team and easily our best offensive player.

Humphries sent to Bobcats for Ben Gordon.

Losing Barbosa has killed our running style.

In case you haven't been paying attention the last like 4 5 games before this one pierce has been shooting TERRIBLY.

Seriously?

He was playing in China for a reason.  If you're expecting even a Brandon Bass calibre role player, you need to bring your expectations WAYYYY down.

He is an end of the bench player who you play in garbage minutes or if foul trouble forces you to play him.  Nothing more.  Don't be naive.

Time to wake up and flush these Buss-turds in the second half.

 The Brooklyn Nets are no longer considering a deal for Charlotte's Ben Gordon, league source tells Y! Sports.
