Recent big 3,,,
RIGHT NOW at their current abilities. Pierce , Ray , or Garnett.

Who would it be????

The answer might be an easy one......but some can factor in tactical reasons and roster reasons. What makes this team better to equip, what do they need more. What would make it easier for others.

Even if they might be playing 10 minutes or so by CBS.

Who would you take. IF you would take any of them at all.

Pierce, no question about it

healthier among the big 3 at this point and can still score and be a 3rd option

That's not the Big 3. ;)

I'll say KG. His intensity, defense, and jump shot would elevate our squad.

Edit: I misread the question. Current abilities? The Captain.

Current ability is easy, it's gotta be Pierce.  He's got the most left and can play some D - some - on LeBron.

In his prime, obviously KG.  His additional alone makes this team the best defensive team in the league and takes us from "getting swept by the Cavs" to having a chance at a championship.


Right now, probably Pierce.  Pierce might even start at SF for this team.  Still a better scorer than anyone in our starting lineup.  Ray is out of the league and I'm pretty sure KG retired a month ago.

KG or McHale in their prime would make this team a borderline contender.

I think KG today could really help this team coming off the bench

Well, since RayRay doesn´t even play and KG plays 10mins a game.... PP of course. He could actually help this team a lot.

In their prime? C´mon.. KG.

Pierce, very easy answer.

KG is cooked.

Pierce in the past and Pierce in the present. When you go to war with the Celtics, you always have to go with the Captain.

Last I heard, KG is leaning toward playing one more year.  It's pretty sad how far he has fallen.
