PAUL PIERCE RUMORS & GOSSIP

Celtics Must Improve to Steal Home-Court Advantage

Boston Celtics forward Paul Pierce cannot be dominated by the Miami Heat's LeBron James like he was in Game 1. “No playoff series truly begins until the road team wins a game.” This is an old saying made famous by Pat Riley in 1987 when he was coaching the Los Angeles Lakers. For the Boston Celtics to win in Miami on Wednesday night, they will have to improve in...

Doc Rivers: Paul Pierce needs to be more physical

Doc Rivers started Tuesday’s film session showing every Game 1 layup the Miami Heat made on loop. It was the coach’s way of telling his players they’d performed with a certain softness and lack of purpose that he didn’t find acceptable. But Rivers only called out one player’s physicality by name — Paul Pierce. (WEEI)“It’s easy to read if he...

Celtics have no answer for Lebron James (videos)

What Lebron James did on Monday night against Boston was a long time coming. Early in his years, Lebron ended up on the short end against Paul Pierce and the Boston Celtics. Pierce was Lebron’s kryptonite during those Cleveland years, mainly why he bolted to Miami to join forces with other stars. Except what we are finding out is that maybe Lebron could have done it himself...

Boston Celtics Paul Pierce Has Another Shot At Slaying The Dragon

The Boston Celtics always seem to have a dragon to slay on their way to finish their quest for an NBA title. Bill Russell had to take out Wilt Chamberlain. Larry Bird had to go through guys like Doctor J, Moses Malone, a young Michael Jordan, and Magic Johnson. This year is no different and the dragon is a familiar foe. Once again the road to an NBA title goes through LeBron James...

Paul Pierce confident, desperate on eve of Game 7

If Paul Pierce played against Michael Jordan and the 1996 Chicago Bulls, he would probably consider himself the best player on the court and believe his team to be the favorite. So it’s no surprise Pierce sounds quite confident — and desperate — on the eve of Game 7. (WEEI)“Of course, we’re at home but they’ve beaten us on our home court,” Pierce said, referring...

Paul Pierce doesn't know what a slump is, even with his knee at 20%

You don't score more than 25,000 points in the NBA if you get sensitive about a couple of missed shots.  So it's no real shock (but still awesome to hear) Paul Pierce say this when he was asked about getting out of a slump: I don't never think I'm in a slump. I really don't know what a slump is. Paul Pierce is so confident in his scoring ability, he...

Paul Pierce dons brace for morning shootaround

image courtesy Molly McGrath ESPN Boston's Chris Forsberg has a summary of the morning shootaround: * For the first time in a while, health didn't dominate the conversation.

Quick notes: Doc's concerned, Pierce will play, Ray might not

The Celtics didn't practiced today, but they did gather for a shootaround.  I can't say I liked what I heard. Both Pierce and Allen sat out Friday's walkthrough, following a shootaround. Pressed as to whether Pierce or Allen were closer to being ready for Game 1, Rivers sounded an ominous tone.  "I don't [know]," he said. "I'm concerned...

Paul Pierce Tebows during game

If you didn’t think the 2011-2012 NBA Playoffs could get any stranger, you were very wrong. Without Rondo during Game 2, the Boston Celtics were going to snatch a win on Tuesday night, but that wasn’t the strange part. It’s what Paul Pierce did at midcourt at 1:15 during the 4th quarter: HE TEBOWED! Celtics [...]
