I was expecting that all along

[thebestthereis]

yes him opting out was just so he could get more years, he will retire in boston

[Raleigh77]

The way it should be. The Truth.

[Doc JS]

I honestly think the Celtics will rue bringing this group back to try and make another run...

He belongs in Boston, don't see him anywhere else

[Fitzel]

Happy he's stayin in Boston. But I still don't think they will be anywhere near as good as they were this past season.

[jjgold]

They need another big time young scorer

[hoopster42]

no surprise whatsoever

[poochiecollins]

I'm surprised a little that he wouldn't at least entertain other possibilities, considering Boston's quite likely on the way down.

[Preston09]

Everyone is so quick to count out the Celtics. I wouldn't be so sure.

[podunk]

we all knew this was coming

i'm sure he listened to a few teams we just dont know how much they offered, plus boston just made the finals and brings back everyone except rasheed, the bench is young, they can make one more great run this year

i can't believe how many people there are on this forum that watch ball for like 5 or 10 years and think they can put up a debate. go home minions. this is expert time.

if you want to put up an argument at least don't just talk out of your ass. Say something that has value.

[Rollins08]

Boston is done.

[tealish]

it's better that he stays. not enough 1 franchise guys left, which i like. Wade should stay with MIA too; just give him some help

[Team Ramrod]

next year will be the last run for the big 3 as far as contending goes

[seaborneq]

The years will be lean during the last Pierce years. I hope they know what they are getting into. Does anyone remember the ML Carr years?

[Tilt360]

Boston overpaid for Pierce, he on the downside of his career.

FLOPS are always better on Parquet.

[masr]

Boston is done.

i agree
