Pierce said. ?I would have been worried about the situation I would have been put in, and I would have wanted to know where everything was going. As much as I would have wanted to stay after being here for so long, I would definitely have had the same questions.

    ?I would have talked to management and asked them about what the best thing to do for the both of us would be</div>

    This is kind of old news, because Pierce did ask for a trade during the whole Garnett to LA Fiasco. Of course he would want to leave if it meant another losing season and another rebuilding and learing year.

    Wow Kobe asks to be traded and all he gets is some bad publicity. Paul Pierce asks to be traded and he gets RAY ALLEN AND K FREAKING G!!! Some guys are just lucky.

    I am pretty sure Kobe's luck has been much better than Pierece's luck. One word, Shaq.
