Please don’t trade Paul Pierce. Please don’t trade Kevin Garnett either. It’s quite simple.

Now, a poetic addendum. Words cannot describe how beautiful his jump shot is. It is as close to an aesthetic absolute as the NBA has seen. When he pulls up at the elbow, or backs down a defender, fakes a couple of times, fades away, I feel for once that events are prescribed by a higher consciousness.
After Jordan dunked, I wanted to go to sleep. I was afraid I’d dilute the image with all subsequent visual input. I would have to rely on dreaming to engrave it into my consciousness. It was like I had seen God (just kidding) (actually, not kidding), and now I had to kill myself.
