BOSTON (AP) -- Sprawled near the edge of the famed parquet floor, Paul Pierce grabbed his throbbing right knee and wondered if his first NBA Finals -- the ones he had always dreamed of playing in -- were finished.
"A lot was going though my head," Pierce said. "'It can't be over like this."
The Boston Celtics' captain wouldn't quit.
He came back out, carrying the franchise's title hopes with him.
Oh please....
Talk about a Larry Bird...
**** me, do we need to be seeing a clip of Pierce running back out like Bird did all those years ago?
Nope, we need to see more of that put-back slam from KG!!!
Can't believe no-one's commented on Game 1 for 8 hours....
For the sleepers, Celts 1 - Lakers 0
