I think far to many are to young on this board to remember how holding onto Bird, Parish, and Mchale set us back a generation. I for one do not want to watch another 10 years of that again. Please, Danny do not make the same mistake. He of anyone should know. I have watched the preseason this year and a few early games. Enough to see this is a 500 team, not going anywhere. It's like watching the Pistons die again.
KG was a champ and so was Pierce. Players who get older never get better. Lottery teams take many moons to rebuild.
This moment is a golden opportunity for Boston.
I was of the idea Pierce should have gone two years ago. I was very surprised last year by the run. That was all because of youth stepping up. Remember where we were headed before Bradley started to assert himself.
When I see that front page letter as an open Letter I scream NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Danny, please don't let it happen again.
This is the biggest BS I have seen on CelticsBlog yet.
The only youth that was there was Rondo. Aside from him, the 7 game series against the Heat was carried on the shoulders of KG/Pierce/Allen/Rondo.
Your "youth" was the players on the bench, which scored a combined total of 2 points.
Let's examine the three series in last year's playoffs:
Hawks: All KG and some Pierce -
NOT YOUTHSixers: KG/Pierce/Rondo -
NOT MUCH OF A YOUTHHeat: KG/Pierce/Rondo/Allen -
NOT MUCH OF A YOUTHYou're posting clear BS. At least get valid reasoning for your argument.
