So you are telling me that Pierce's replacment would of scored zero points?
Where do you gather this from? You blamed the loss on Paul Pierce, and said you coulda sunk those FT's. May be so, but you wouldn't have put up 25/11, and neither would whoever on our team played in Pierce's spot. It's mind-bending, really, that you can put the loss solely on one player and can't fathom that losing, like winning, is a team effort.

MY GOD. I said that if he got injured I would if hit the free throws as a replacment. Obviously I would not of had 25 and 11, but I was serious about the free throws as a replacment, I still think that as an NBA player it is your job to hit those, and he should of made them, If he is this big superstaryou hit the free throws. I know he had good numbers but we lost the game either way, he should of hit 2 0f 8 free throws thats why i blame him.

Yeah he shoulda hit 2 of 8. But blaming him for the loss is just stupid. How you cannot fathom that a loss is a team thing is beyond me.
