Paul Pierce Gets Tossed


PP was just plain mad. His Celtics didn't come out to play the Heatles in Game 1 and frustration does eventually boil over to where you lean extra hard into a screen on Dwyane Wade. Going 6-14 from the field for 19 points and 4 turnovers won't get the job done either. After Pierce took off he avoided speaking to the press (doesn't he get fined for that?) and Boston Globe writer Dan Shaughnessy calls him out:

"We thought we were over this stuff with Pierce. He is 33 years old. He’s been in the NBA since 1998. He was MVP of the Finals in 2008, for gosh sakes. What’s the excuse for losing his cool twice in the fourth quarter of a game against a team that’s always waiting to choke if you can keep things close?"

Get in your wheelchair to regain your powers and see you in Game 2, Truth.

Warriors vs. Hornets: 11/27/10 orangino edit

I watched this game last night on DVR and just skipped the entire 4th Quarter (although I did make sure that the Warriors didn't somehow come back by FF'ding to the last 4 minutes). The Dubs were down 27 at one point in the 3rd after a 7 point halftime deficit. Barf in mouth gross.

The first quarter was a lot of fun with Monta racking up the assists and not shooting. It was good to see Beans put together some decent moves and actually catch some passes that were thrown to him. I swear, some assistant coach just needs to rifle basketballs at this guy in practice from 20 feet away screaming "if it hit's your hands, you catch it!!" Shit, the Warriors were actually shooting like 56% at halftime! (a guess.........there's no way I'm researching that)

But then the effort died. Mix that in with a little bit of CP-3 doing his thang on a Hornets team that has been playing really well and you have a serious ass kicking of the Dubs. Congrats to the Hornets for hanging around and playing like some sort of cost effective version of their former 59 win selves. I thought that there was the potential for them to drift away with all of their issues earlier this year. But CP-3 is magic. New Orleans fans should count their blessings.........or whatever their vodoo religion tells them to count.

As always, here's the orangino edit. That dude can make any shitball Warriors game fun to watch in 9 minutes or less! Wait a second, this one was only 1:49? That just tells you how bad that game was:
