    Could be a move so that he can a long term deal before labor strike next year, dont think anyone will give him one that pays him the money he is accustomed to but he wants to take a gamble with it.

    This will leave the Celts with just 4 players signed ( Davis, KG, Rondo and Perkins) and also leave them about 22-25M under the cap.

    Makes the off season that much more interesting a late hour.

    Yep....me and my brother were talking about this, neither one of us thought he'd leave though, since he kinda built Boston back up these last few years. Without him they woulda been nothing.

    Subtract Pierce and add Lebron.... virtually the same money.... Much better supporting cast... Better City....

    Danny Ainge is known to be aggresive..... i know pierce is a boston legend but he's on the wrong side of 30 and will be an liability to a franchise in his later years with a 16-20 million cap hit.

    Yup, I don't think i would resign him either unless he take a big paycut (which i think this opt out idea was bad for him, 21.5mil next year was alot of money). His body seem like it's breaking down on him. Running around like Shaq now. LoL. I would chase after one of the top free agent if i was the Celtics.

    Giving him a nice contract for being loyal would put the Celtics in a big mess down the road.

    Don't be surprised if the ghost of Red Auerbach pulls off something shocking.

    Dont the Celtic HAVE to approach Lebron now?

    I mean, if he want's to win, isn't paring him with Rondo/KG/Perkins give him the best chance after Chicago?

    Heck no, KG is one the decline and Perkins is garbage. He'd have a better chance of winning if he stayed with the Cavs rather than go to the Celtics.

    Free agency has gotten a little more interesting!!! Wonder will the Celtics pick up a few star players if Pierce leaves?

    Pierce isn't going to leave, he is just looking for a longer contract. Doc is coming back too, and Pierce would not leave the only team he knows.

    The big 3 is basically done but the rumors are that Pierce will resign. I just hope that they don't get dominated by younger teams like the Hawks and Bobcats next year.

    as people said, i doubt he's leaving. lebron will not come to the celtics, no way. although i'd love to see rondo and lebron on the same team. except that would be one of the worst ft shooting team in the 4th quarter. i don't trust either at the line

    Hawks are the biggest fraud when it comes to being a a good "young" team, but when it comes to betting they go alright.

    You're the biggest fraud when it comes to being an even somewhat decent capper.
