When the Truth thinks things are going bad, they probably have gotten pretty bad.
There's not many players who know more about what a bad Boston Celtics situation looks like than Paul Pierce, so when he recently said on ESPN's The Drop that the Celts are the league's biggest disappointment, it's probably worth listening to his point of view.
To be fair, he's a green teamer by default, and had very high hopes for this squad, like many of us. And he's been wise to deflect some of the questions about Gordon Hayward's slow recovery, noting even Michael Jordan was rusty most of his first season back from "retirement".
