1. When is the last time you heard a Celtics player complaining about having to play too many minutes?

2. Pierce is so much smarter than Lebron it is painful. It takes him less than 140 words to diss Lebron, while Lebron requires an ad agency and millions of dollars to produce a ridiculous commercial to try and make us feel bad for him.

3. I dislike Lebron so much and love Paul Pierce. Class versus the Ass.

So true!  I love this post. tp ;D

per Paul Pierce twitter: "It's been a pleasure to bring my talents to south beach now on to Memphis"

Fantastic.  TP.  Wish I could give a TP to Paul too.

I guess 'taking my talents to south beach' is one of those phrases that is gonna live on.  I'm sure Lebron thought it was a good line when he said it...

I found this interesting, from Wojo's article:

Quote
“For myself, 44 minutes is too much,” James declared. “I think Coach Spo knows that. Forty minutes for D-Wade is too much. We have to have as much energy as we can to finish games out.”

Celtics fan for life.

Well wait a second. What was he supposed to do? Was he supposed to take responsibility for losing? Was he supposed to admit the Celts are better than him? What was he supposed to do?

I personally voted for the "disappear" option.

I like the Ray Allen approach of letting your game do the talking. Paul after eating his words a few times last year hasn't chilled with his Twitter darts. I don't know if I'd be squawking if I was the one guarding Lebron and his crazy avg vs the C's. A veteran club should be more quiet, but whatever gets their Swag on I guess.

Like he knows what a real gangster is. He doesn't need to look beyond his team to find someone soft. Just bitter words from a bitter man after the supposedly "New Big 3" got torched by the REAL Big 3 again. He's Mrs. Villanueva 2.0. Can't beat the  Celtics on court so they go through the media to whine.

Pathetic.

Paul can talk all he wants to the “best passing forward since Larry Bird”, “next Magic Johnson”, “best player in the game” because he’s knocked him out of the playoffs twice and has beaten The South Beach Superstars in two very convincing victories.

“Eating his words”
 
When he said we were going to sweep Orlando, didn’t, but ended up still beating them anyways? I don’t think anybody on The Magic was calling him out while packing their bags to go home.

Pierce is as healthy now as he’s been since 2008. He’s as good at his craft as anyone in league history. He can tweet whatever he wants.
