We shouldn't lose anymore home games.

We blew the Game 4 against Orlando. We should really learn from that.

Did he say the same thing in Orlando after game 2?

Well it almost happened... a Doc time-out away to be exact. Regardless, he brought it. I'm fine with all his talking, when he's talking he's pumped up to perform, and he more often than not delivers.

I agree with your point, but IMO it doesn't matter whether it almost happens or not, nor whether he brings it or not.  The only things that matter are whether we get the W's or not and whether or not the team brings it.  He's not making personal guarantees here, he's making team guarantees.  And simply, his last one in Orlando was wrong.  I do really like the confidence and swagger, but as the cliche goes, talk is cheap.  Especially when the last time he uttered the same exact statement, he was wrong.

But don't get me wrong, I'm still glad he said it.  I think we need that kind of confidence and swagger and that it pumps them up really believing in that.

I love Pierce saying this. I love when athletes speak their minds and don't fall into the political correctness crap that has invaded all phases of society.

Did Paul mean we weren't going back to LA because the Lakers might close it in Boston? Just wanted to double check exactly what hea meant.

And maybe he out to think about backing it up if he wants to talk?

I actually think we will go back to LA either up 3-2 or down 3-2, but we're going back PAUL!

Now Paul wants them to go back to LA.

And the NBA will too so it's already a given.

It's already written in stone and it is NBA God's Will.
