Yes, Pierce is arrogant, but it's due to his age. He's young and doesn't know better. He scored the most points this year, was the second leading scorer per game, scored more points this year than any other Celtic in history (and there's a ton of hall of famers there) and leads the team in most statistics. On his bad days he scores 25. But, he never should have said that nobody can stop him, cuz the ref's are too good at that. Everytime he drives to the hoop it's a charge. I believe that nobody wants to see another Celtics/Lakers championship again, and since the Lakers are so dominant it is easier to keep the Celtics out.
I have never had anything against Jason Kidd, but he has to have the gayist free throw routine I've seen. I know the sentiment is cool, but the routine sucks. He needs something new.
