Where do you rank Paul Pierce All-Time?

[Wade's Rings]

Title

[SaltyMeatballs]

35-40

[aquaadverse]

Somewhere in the 50s. Which is not really an insult.

[FatComputerNerd]

Probably top 10 all-time at his position, and a future HOF'er.

I'd say he's done pretty well.

[navy]

I dont. At what point do people realize how ridiculous they are being with the rankings after the top 10, which doesn't even have a consistent criteria to being with.

[Lebron23]

I put him above James Worthy. So a top 50 player of all time.

Probably top 10 all-time at his position, and a future HOF'er.

Couldn't he be Top 5 All-Time in his position? Lebron, Bird, Pippen, Durant, Pierce?

Agreed

Dr. J?

Yep! I think he's a top 10 GOAT SF and a first ballot HOFer. And when it comes to his TOTAL scoring skillset, I think he's in the top 5-7 all time at the SF. I think Bird had the best scoring skillset ever at the SF.

But from there, Pierce is up there with Durant, Melo, King, and Barry. Another SF's scoring skillset who gets slept on is Mark Aguirre. Pierce's scoring skillset reminded me of Mark's in many ways. But Pierce was a better all around player.

Elgin Baylor getting underrated as usual. And Hondo gets no mention.

Pierce has no case over Baylor and Dr J, btw. Pippen isn't up there either.

If people rank Pierce over Baylor GOAT or peak wise, that's a shame. In both realms, Baylor is in the top five. And given his time period and when he did it, he's the most revolutionary SF of all time. He was more ahead of his time than any other SF. It took Dr. J in the 70's to measure up to the things Baylor introduced.

[Champ]

Hondo should also be above Pierce if you consider him a SF.

Name 50 players better than Pierce.

[Wade's Rings]

Dr. J?

Forgot about him. I guess it depends on if you rank him higher than Pippen or Durant.

Damn forgot about Baylor. Not sure on Hondo.

Durant can't be ranked over Pierce. Yet.
