Bill Simmons: "Paul pierce was NEVER as popular as Isaiah Thomas is right now in Boston "

[#1 pick]

As a black guy who has been to Indiana (birthplace and headquarters of the KKK) and would never ever ever ever step foot in country ass KkK Kentucky ...

You guys are confusing the segregation in the south as lack of racism. It's institutionalized racism. Which is 10000000x worse than a racist drunk white boy yelling the n word.

Someone with white privilege would of course not recognize the institutional racism. Wonder why?

Black people in the south are literally being held behind by white people. There are states down there still flying the confederate flag to remind you of that. Stickers on every other truck.

But ya'll dummies are railing against drunk racist cacs in Boston lol. shyt makes no sense.

In just the South tho

That series against the Nets in 01, 02 (I think) solidified him, that's when I became fan at least


Those Nets teams would of eaten IT and his squad so


@ bill simmons

 

[Hahahaha]

I'm from Boston and never liked Pierce. He was a ball hog pre-big 3, out of shape after Antoine left, inefficient as a scorer and a lazy defender. I only turned around when he changed his game once Ray and KG arrived.

 

[bxrfan]

shyt is crazy





Yall are on crack, Pierce was already a loved Celtic legend before the big 3

I never said he wasn't loved, I said he'd be the least remembered of the three if they never formed

 

[Yeet Infection]

Beantown needs to sink.

 

[Fade Runner 2049]

Uhhh yea he does

They talk about his three over Lebron in game 4 of the finals like Kirk Gibsons homer


It goes Dirk, Rolando Blackmon, Jason terry,


Top 3 most loved mavs of all time

Nobody cares about the Mavs tho, so who cares who Mavs stans fav players are.

 

[Big Boss]

Even females was rocking the pierce jersey in LA (and the Iverson jersey)


Its crazy how history gets rewritten and how the internet just rolls with it. Lol

Every chick in America had an Iverson jersey

 

[Taadow]

Every chick in America had an Iverson jersey

We might have a spin here...

The ball jerseys worn by the most females all-time are

- The Jordan 45
- Penny
- Grant Hill Pistons

 

[Wargames]

This is Bullshyt Simmons just doesn't want them to go full rebuild around Fultz.

Pierce was the man in Boston. Even in the big 3 era he was the hometown hero

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

That's why I said it's weird

They're liberal about everything except black folks

If you know Irish people, it's perfectly normal. But to be fair, they hate everybody

 

[MF_BREW]

Paul brought gold to boston , isaiah hasn't. It aint a got damn thing if you aint got that ring.

 

[Dawunonli]

He's king of in the moment hyperbole.

Isiah is a nice little player but he's had one real good year and he's already a Celtic legend

Disgusting smh

I think ppl love it cuz he a small guy making such impact on the court

Ppl love seeing an underdog

 

[MAGNETO.]

this man has no decency, even if it is true why kick a man down while he is retiring

glad his bytch ass show got cancelled and his site is trash

 

[B!tchuoffendingme]

He's king of in the moment hyperbole.

Isiah is a nice little player but he's had one real good year and he's already a Celtic legend

I like Bill Simmons to a certain extent, but let no man forget, he was the LEADER of the journalistic movement that wrote off Kyrie Irving's career prospects halfway into the Finals last year.

Seems pretty clear Simmons watches the NBA less and less each season. Sometime during the last 3 or so years he finally became straight casual fan status, when he talks about basketball now he just coasts on hot takes and his "body language expert" bits and stories from the last clipper game he went to, just like any other hack now. There was a time he was actually kind of funny.
