re: Paul Pierce picks the Pels to get to the WCF

It all comes back to winning. Pels are at the dance now so folks are bound to notice. Pels entering a brutal stretch of games and we will get the opportunity to see the team's metal tested. National media will jump off, just as quick as they got on the ship. National attention is not a concern, because, for the team and real fans, it'll all be about carving out tough wins.
