    WEEI would report it right away. I listen to that daily, and they've said nothing to that matter.</p>

    Pierce has been a "good soldier" through some lean times. To trade him now would not be right at all.</p>

    Unless you have Kidd, Nash, Deron being offered to you for Pierce, there is nothing else to discuss. I also find it funny how the Celtics haven't played one regular season game, and yet "talks" about breaking up the big three have arisen.</p>

    Wow, this might be the dumbest thing I've read in a long time. If anything, Pierce has looked better than the other 2.</p>
