Who knew that a couple years later they'd play in the finals.

Which team won in that game again?

Can't believe that was 9 years ago, wow time flies I remember being amped about that dunk on Mihms, lol. We wasted so many of Pierce's best years on horrible teams. 05-08 were Pierces peak years from a skill and athletic ability standpoint. IMHO, Pierce was arguably top ten those years.  I think a lot of people forget how good he really was and many others never knew because he was wasting away on a horrible team. 2008 he had just enough of the juice(41 points against Lebron's cavs) to get us over the hump and 09 he used it all up dragging that KG less team into the play-offs. No way we go through offensive droughts like we did in 2010(the finals) if Pierce was still that player. With all that said he's still better then 90% of the guys we have now.
