“I think I’m comfortable doing anything,” Pierce said. “I don’t limit
myself to just being a shooter, or just driving. I’m a natural born
scorer. I think I can do it all over the court. If the shot is there,
I’ll take it.”…“Just going against the best, regardless if it’s LeBron,” Pierce said.
“It’s just going against the best teams. I just look at it over the

on the big stage. Obviously, playing against the MVP brings out the
best in the best players in the league.”

“I just know during the playoffs, they contribute two guys to me,
always, just when I’m coming off pin downs,” Allen said. “I have to make

that. The only way we can force them away from that kind of defense is
if we penalize them for doing that.”

Move the ball around, and they'll pay. If they're using Rondo's guy, then he's got to be ready to burn that fool once he gets the ball back.
