To bring this whole thing back to the original post... Paul Pierce is fine on TV, but his “intentional ridiculous hot take guy” gimmick is doing his broadcasting career a disservice.  He knew [dang] well calling himself better than wade was ridiculous and he knew [dang] well calling this series over after 1 game was moronic.   I get they are trying to get attention to the show and have him play a character, but he’s painting himself as a complete idiot and it’s a bad look.  Bummer seeing him intentionally become the butt of jokes.


This is ... an intriguing position for you to take.

That is a good bit phosita
Paul Pierce should be banned for trolling

That! Is the best post I’ve ever seen from you!
Thought you could only pat urself on the back but you showed self awareness and self deprecating humor.
I have a new appreciation, TP!

You kid yourself. Leopard doesn’t change its spots.
yall need to stop blaming me for Philly being the most talented team in the East.

Paul Pierce is right. It's over.

It's over for the Celtics. Sigh.

This team has underachieved, played with very little effort all season. No chemistry. Not connected.

The offense is maddening. They just keep chucking up 3 after 3. They shoot themselves right out of games

Love listening to Paul....

His reaction to the game one win was what most of us were feeling....we've been waiting for the Celtics to turn it on, and it seemed they had finally flipped the switch, and had not lost a game in the playoffs...who would have thunk the all-season-long version of the Celtics would reappear? 

Keep it up Pierce!

That's so crazy to me that people continually overreact to Game 1 of a playoff series.  It's incredible.

Yeah, it's time to start taking road Game 1 wins with a grain of salt. It's mostly the losing team was either rusty or just asleep. The Celtics are slowly following the path of what Orlando, Brooklyn, and San Antonio all faced:  Win Game 1, lose the next four (or lose the series in general).

Paul Pierce gotta make up his mind man lol. He said he hated the Celtics growing up and despised Larry Bird.

I guess that's what happens when you from the hood in Inglewood  :(
