The Paul Pierce Factor In The Draft

The Celtics have 3 options for  Thursday's draft. 1. Pick a solid NBA ready college player such as Al Horford, Corey Brewer, or even Joakim Noah. 2. They could try and trade the pick for a veteran who is on the trading block such as Jermaine Oneil or Andrea Kirilenko. (Forget Garnett) 3. They could draft a player with a lot of potential but is a project such as Yi Jianlian or Brandan Wright. I hope they go with option 1 or 2, because if they go with option 3 (and there are lots of reports that they like Yi Jianlian) Paul Pierce will demand to be traded and for good reason. Pierce is an elite player who few people regard as elite because the past few years he has been playing on a College Team.
