May 9th, 2007 Pierce to Pass on Team USA

Celtics All-Star swingman Paul Pierce will not participate with Team USA this summer, or the Olympics in 2008. Due to the injury difficulties he has experienced this season, Pierce decided that passing on the opportunity to play for Team USA was the best decision for himself and the Boston Celtics organization. Pierce, a once touted “iron man” in the NBA, struggled mightily this season with injuries to his elbow, foot, knee, and he even got a black eye in late March. Hopefully “The Truth” can come back strong and put together a healthy season next year, and sprinkle some Celtic Pride over the city of Boston with a postseason appearance.
