The Clippers play in Boston tonight, and Celtics legend Paul Pierce will be wearing LA’s red, white and blue uniform.
Typing that sentence still doesn’t feel right, even though it’s been three seasons since The Truth moved on, first to Brooklyn, then Washington, and now LA.
Although he hasn’t announced anything, Paul has hinted this could be his last year playing in the NBA. If so, that means tonight will be his final game at TD Garden. (Unless the Clips and Cs both make the Finals, so – yeah, it’s his last game here.)
It would take too long to list all of Pierce’s records, achievements, game-winning shots and playoff heroics that occurred while he wore Celtics green.
