Kevin Garnett just returned from China after doing his annual promotions for Anta, Paul Pierce arrived 2 days ago to play in the "Continental Basketball Championship", and the coach also made his way to the Far East. Doc Rivers was in China to watch son Austin's Duke Blue Devils play in a 3-game series, (that had no brawls thankfully) against the Chinese Olympic team.
