Health matters. Work ethic matters. RJ, so far, has both to his advantage.

Pierce before KG/Allen (to a lesser extent Rondo) was a scoring wing, not known for defense, not a great shooter, not known for winning to the point they traded Walker and were picking like 5 in the draft.

It's not close, Paul Pierce in his rookie year was shooting .412 on 3's -- in 1998-9. When 3's weren't as easy and free to get. Paul Pierce led the league in points at age 24.
Most of all Paul Pierce's league adjusted shooting numbers in his first 4 years were all very positive. RJs have been absolutely offense demolishing level horrible, Westbrook level horrible.
Year 4 for The Truth his true shooting add was over league average by +186.8, Chanel will need tissues to clean up after reading these stats

You can stop now. He's in Toronto thankfully. Pierce actually was, and has been an amazing shooter at a rate that is embarrassingly better than RJ. You are basically saying you know nothing about Paul Pierce and never even looked at his numbers. I mean or you are RJs dad or something posting in here, there's really no other explanation.
