Paul Pierce: No Trash Talk Because of NBA 2K

In case you guys missed it last night, Paul Pierce shared a little bit of opinion last night after the Wizards topped the Lakers 98-92.
Paul Pierce says new NBA players not as competitive as their predecessors. Why? “Computers. They play NBA2K instead of going to the park.”

I disagree. These players need to play thousands hours of basketball in "the park" in order to survive in the NBA. As addicting as MyPark can be, I doubt it's creating any lack of trash talk.
What do you think OS? Is NBA 2K to blame for the lack of trash talking amongst the NBA's players?
