All the All-Star talent on one team, but only one rock to pass around. Peirce will suffer from this influx of me-first players.
The US Olympic basketball travesty and the international-laden Spurs & Mavs should be enough proof that you need team players, not superstars.

I think you're off-base when it comes to KG. He's definitely not a "me-first" player. He spent the vast majority of his career being criticized for giving up the rock too much and not demanding the ball. I think he's a great addition to a team that already has talent in place. He can be a go-to guy, but is not one of those guys that has to touch the ball every time down the court. Watch and see how much better the guys around him become after playing with him for a while.....
