A Quick NBA Note....

So I'm currently watching the Boston Celtics vs. Dallas Mavericks on TNT. After 3 quarters the Mavericks are leading 75-68. Ray Allen is shooting well, Rasheed is complaining about calls, and the C's are still without the services of Kevin Garnett.

One thing I've realized over the years while watching Paul Pierce is that he is similar to Kurt Warner. In what ways you ask? Well for one thing, some nights Pierce looks to be unstoppable and clearly the best player on the court..... while other nights he looks to be a year away from being completely washed up. Tonight, although he's made a couple good plays, is one of those nights that you'd rather see him cheering the younger Celtics from the bench.

If I have to see him lose his dribble again, force up a horrible shot while caring more about creating contact and then complaining about not getting a foul... I think I may have to watch something else horrible like "The Jay Leno Show".

Meanwhile, the Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki is putting on an offensive clinic! It doesn't look good for the Celtics at this point, but then again, who really cares until playoff time. We know the Celtics are going to make the playoffs. We know that if they are completely healthy, they are the best team in the NBA. And we also know that if Pierce forces up one more shot I'll be forced to give "The Jay Leno Show" another shot.

Please, please, please don't force me to watch that!
