Clark Kent On A Bad Knee

Paul Pierce's 39-point performance last night brings to mind Abraham Lincoln's retort to those who thought Ulysses S. Grant was "damaged goods" due to his excessive drinking. Lincoln stated, "If I knew what brand of whiskey he drinks, I would send a barrel or so to some other generals."

Similarly, Doc Rivers could say, "Find out what knee condition The Truth has, and get Tonya Harding on the horn".

With back-to-back dispatchings of the Toronto Raptors (including last night's win at the Garden) , the World Champs seem to be back on track for Banner 18.
