By now, NBA fans know to expect the unexpected whenever Paul Pierce is in front of a microphone and, in true fashion, the retired forward lived up to his reputation in a hilarious, NSFW soundbite on Friday.
Pierce’s latest memorable line came prior to the Celtics’ home game against the 76ers, where the Basketball Hall of Famer and Celtics legend appeared as a guest on the NBC Sports Boston pregame show.
During the spot, Pierce fielded a question asking how his NBA title-winning 2008 Boston team would’ve approached an in-season tournament. And, while he could’ve taken a humble approach, Pierce decided to do anything but, as he stressed just how much the tourney’s point differential rule would’ve mattered to the club.
