Well at Least I Still Have the Nationals and a Full Body Workout

It looked like Paul "The Truth" Pierce had hit his THIRD clutch three pointer in the series against the Atlanta Hawks to tie game six as time expired. If you had to pick one word that has described Paul Pierce and his career, it is clutch. But sometimes being clutch is not enough. The TRUTH was that instant replay revealed the ball still touching the tips of Pierce's fingers as time expired, eliminating the Washington Wizards from the NBA playoffs. That means the Caps and the Wizards are out.... all I can say right now is how about those Nationals?!

Today's quote is from Nate Silver:

"People attach too much importance to intangibles like heart, desire and clutch hitting."
