Bron feared Paul Pierce at one time and vocalized it, giving Paul props.

Yall need to stop downgrading Paul. He and Melo were among the most versatile scoring Small Forward of all time and put fear in niqqas.

I’ll never forget Bron when asked about rivals first mentioning Paul Pierce.

Paul will always be my dude


He is though. Dude was going toe to toe with prime AI, Vince, McGrady all the way to Bron and Kobe.

Even Bron saw him as an adversary. Yet he still isn't viewed as an all time great SF.

For the record, Paul Pierce is the most under appreciated basketball player of the last 20 years IMO

Since Pierce is still holding a grudge on how he didn't win enough championships, really he should arrange a podcast with ainge and rivers and ask them what went down in 09, why did they not address the front court issues back then.

Because 2010 finals is when they lost it by getting out-rebounded straight up when Kendrick Perkins went down

After KG's injury in 09 he became slightly less effective, so they needed to find a decent big man reserve. What did they do? They brought out of shape old man Rasheed who soon as the season started was more interested in launching three's like he Antoine Walker (instead of doing his job in the paint). It was clear early that they needed to find some other big, just in case.

But they didn't, so what happened is Kendrick Perkins went down in game 6 and Celtics got outrebounded by Lakers in both crucial games. Sheed had to play 30+ minutes in game 7 and he was totally gassed towards the end because he didn't stay in shape that entire season (then retired afterwards for two seasons). Plus also add the usual doc rivers coaching fails and there you have it!

He should blame his god damn coaching staff and GM on why he only has one ring.


Ainge and doc were racist and did not want sheed wallace.
to have a championahip level merts legend like draw in boston.
When sheed is an actual championship catalsyt and helped destroy the lakers with shaq.

What does ainge and doc do. The dummy

Same as ime
Mad he slept with some white woman. When you shoyld be worried about a title. Yet that is boston and theor racist bs.


fukkboi ass racist framchise. Did not even give bill russell john thimpson and sam jones any dignity socially as black men.

The goat argument is litetally misappropriated from rusell to bird erroneously. Thank k the lawd jordan came along.
to take that shyt from their misappropriated racist criteria of the goat.

I remember Kobe grabbing 15 rebounds in that game 7 thinking how ridiculous it was they were letting a 2 guard kill them on the boards like that. No type of presence in the paint.

Ainge is just a really really overrated GM.

He kept getting bailed out by ridiculous trades but now we can see he's doing absolutely nothing in Utah when no one wants to deal with him anymore.

The way he built Celtics Big 3 was that McHale was a Timberwolves GM that time around, which was his buddy, so he gifted KG for a weak ass package. Then there was a Sonics sabotage where clay bennet traded away his team to tank the arena audience so he could move that team to OKC, so Boston got Ray for a low price too. And there you have it.. He did nothing else to secure that franchise multiple titles.

Celtics were known for having a great front court whether it was a Bill Russell years, or the 80s Celtics, they had a strong big man lineup.

And then they did the opposite in the 00s cause both ainge and rivers had no clue. To give KG a clown show like that weirdo Glen Davis or that goofy ass Kendrick Perkins (who got posterized in some of the most vicious dunks ever) was eventually gonna cost them a championship...and it happened.

Which is no surprise because Celtics were gassed by the end of the series as a result of not making enough trade moves to build around the big 3.

Also Tony Allen was soo out of place in that series. Remember that's a guy that Kobe regarded as one of the toughest defenders he played against, ever.
