    a lot of feelings being caught but yall not really proving me wrong

    Paul Pierce is a good, not great player and will go down as such

    There's been plenty of good players come through the league

    If you want to give him credit for his longevity, cool but he's not even one of the top 25 players of the 2000s

    See here is the thing about his longevity its not as if he his just in the league to be in the league on some kurt thomas ? .. that longevity with diminishing values the last 8 years or so..


    Paul Pierce has been fairly consistent in his greatness.. while not dynamic his results year after year dont lie..

    some of those very people who were poppin in 2000 had a career where they were consistent for 5 years... hes played 14 Longevity isnt a demerit

    Is Paul Pierce not a 4 time all NBA player? And a 10 time all-star? Damn, did not lebron James himself say Paul Pierce was the best @ the small forward position @ one point?..how is that not greatness?

    I don't even ? with Paul Pierce like that, I never was a fan, but i'm an honest guy.
    The only reason A.I, V.C, Ray and Mac are all "better" , is because they were more popular.
    If u look at the numbers from their prime years, PP match up hand to hand with each and everyone of them.


    The only player from last decade that's ahead of PP, is Kobe.
    but, i'll take PP Over Kobe EveryDAY. Kobe has the lowest I.Q I've witness from a STAR player of that level. Last Year was the worst, not only was the guy 33 he was 16 years in, and played with an I.Q of a rookie.
    Your Star Player should always have one of or the highest I.Q on your team.

    Another underrated stat Pierce is 19th all time in free throw attempts, one of the top 3 at getting to the line since hes been in the league, and stats dont even tell the whole story about how good he really is, how about the fact that he had to sacrifice his numbers once they brought the big 3 together, his scoring took a dip since 07 but you never see him complaining, this dude R.D. probably thought Gilbert Arenas was the greatest pg of all time the year he was averaging 29, you dont know ? bruh i'm sorry

    Clyde Drexler wasnt great !
    Larrry Bird is the only one ill give you and he's great because of the championships and his shooting among other things

    Those are the only two comparable players on your list, the rest of them play different positions, clown
