Pierce To Start Practicing
Paul Pierce shot around before tonight’s game and reports he’ll be back practicing tomorrow and hopes to be playing some time this week.
Pierce has been out since late December with a left foot stress reaction, but he said the pain is gone. In that tomorrow’s practice will be very light and not entail any contact, the bigger test will come Sunday.
For now, the captain appears to be back to his trash-talking ways. He was ribbing his mates as he moved around the court taking shots.

At this Point, only Coleman’s comment makes any sense at all, “Whoop-de-damn-do!”…Thanks Big_Easy!, My thoughts exactly!
To tell you the “Truth”, I’m more worried about Perkins than I am Paul’s “stress reaction.” I know that sounds crazy and I know that I see something in Perk that others don’t see, but he’s a man-child with strength both of body and character…It would be a horrible pity to see him wash out over this miserable fasciitis…
Also, I wonder what Paul’s return will mean to the starting point situation…It’s looking more and more like Rondo’s our future…As I type things come to me…Rondo, West, Pierce (3), Gomes and Al…But, then again, I’m thinking rebounds and paint…We’ll see (said the blind legion)…
I know Pierce wants to come in and act as a tourniquet, but I wonder why he needs to basically make a 2 game cameo before the all-star break. I guess if he’s fully healthy there’s no reason to keep him out. It’s not even definite that his first few games back will provide any difference in the win column.
