Here’s Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce’s response to former teammate Kevin Garnett asking him if Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry has two good years left (turns 37 in late March).

(via KG Certified):

“Man, he’s up there in age. He’s got a lot of miles. I think his best role on a championship team is a vet guard coming off the bench, truthfully. I think at your guard positions you need youth in those positions. So now when you’re looking at guys like Ja Morant, LaMelo Ball, you need more youth. I think he’d be best suited as coming off the bench, being that veteran guard and somebody you can use at the end of games, too.”
