No, I'm not voting with multiple names. I just copied StateOfMind's vote.

Don't take my votes too seriously anyway. I'm the casualest of casual fans.

So are you voting for Pierce, or not voting?

[Jacks3]

pierce.

[StateOfMind12]

So are you voting for Pierce, or not voting?

He just clarified that he is not me since he said the same thing I said which led to kblaze accusing him of being me. He was clearly voting for Pierce.

So are you voting for Pierce, or not voting?

Yep.

An uneducated vote, but a vote nonetheless.

[MiamiThrice]

I'll vote for Paul Pierce.



His act in the 2008 Finals was one of the most heroic basketball moments I've ever seen. This guy went down with an injury and he couldn't even walk. His teammates had to CARRY HIM. How many games did he miss? None. He came right back out and DOMINATED the Finals showing everyone that he was the best player in that entire series. That moment was the turning point of the finals and Paul Pierce is primarily responsible for ending the Celtics(one of the greatest franchises in all of sports) 20+ year title drought. His heart was tremendous. Noone could stop him in that series. His sheer determination could not be matched. Paul Pierce is a champion and willed his team to a title over all odds. He deserves to be in the top 50.

Paul Pierce. C'mon guys. I know he played with great team mates, but he still won a ring and played exceptional in the finals. He's been a good forward throughout, and the only thing I'd like to criticize is his handles are Goddawful, but he does everything else pretty well

What makes him better than Cunningham or Worthy?

I'd argue Cunningham didn't have as good of longevity as Pierce. Truth be told I'd say Greer>Cunningham. That, and I feel Cunningham's era was wek when he peaked (the 70s are the weakest era IMO)
As for Worthy, Pierce has had better defense and I'd say a little better with playing as 'the guy'
