    After a season filled with change, Paul Pierce has decided to make a few moves of his own this summer. He plans to buy a house in the Las Vegas area and take up golf. With a little time on the links, Pierce figures he can beat former teammate Antoine Walker. Pierce knows it will be a while before he can compete with new Celtics coach Doc Rivers, though that won't stop the All-Star swingman from visiting Rivers in Orlando, Fla., where championship courses abound.

    Pierce believes Rivers is the right man for the job, and he wants coach and captain communicating well when next season begins. When reached by telephone yesterday in Los Angeles, Pierce talked at length about Rivers, the departure of former coach Jim O'Brien, the brief tenure of John Carroll, a trying season, and the possibility of playing in the Olympics.

    "Doc's cool," said Pierce.
