Rasheed Wallace made an appearance at Paul Pierce's camp today… and he reaffirmed that he's done.
When asked by CSNNE.com about whether his NBA career was indeed wrapped up, Wallace responded, "Like Christmas."
But Paul Pierce isn't buying it.
"I told him, 'Go ahead, do all you need to do,' " Pierce said. " 'Take the kids everywhere. We'll see you in February.' "
I'll go ahead and make the obvious joke here. Sheed doesn't have to retire to take the first 5 months of the season off.
I'm not ruling anything out… and I know sometimes it takes a couple of tries for a retirement to take… but I believe Sheed on this one.
But as a bonus… check out this quote from Pierce when asked about his contract.
"Everybody knew I was coming back. I didn't need a special."
Eat that, LeBron. See you in a couple of months.
