    Default What could have been Paul Pierce's legacy

    From 3 possible game winners, and 2 buzzer beaters in a Series to losing in 6.

    This entire series could have gone down as one of the greatest performances OF ALL TIME for Paul. It was Michael Jordanesque. But now no one will care because he lost.

    They would have gotten swept next series anyway. Would have been impressive for someone his age though.

    He even had a wide open 3 to win in game 3 that he normally makes.

    As a basketball fan, I'm disappointed. I'm not even the biggest Truth fan, but what he was doing was remarkable and beautiful to watch. It's sad it had to end the way it did, but that's basketball. This one hurts. This was something we could be talking about 20 years from now.

    I won't forget it.

    He took Toronto's soul and helped his young and injured team to 6 games against a 60-win team.

    Pierce is a one-of-a-kind NBA legend. Respect it.

    Still one of the best signings of 2014/15. The guy is a beast competitor with veins made out of ice shards. Nothing but respect for the truth

    It just sucks cuz for other dudes its like oh well next year, but PP knows next year he is going to be way worse... getting old sucks. Being an old guy and losing has to suck esp when you were one of the best players on your team.

    he's what 37, 38? I don't think his skillset and athletic ability is going to deteriorate to badly. Doc has always said he could play for a long long time i'd say skillfully and athletically (assuming he keeps in shape) he could play another 3 years at the same level he's playing right now. It's more about his passion for the game and the ordeal of going through an 82 game season on his body.

    That shot with 2 seconds left shouldn't have counted. But the refs wanted to screw the Hawks, but they just couldn't pull it off.

    As it stands... PP was 1-2 in game winners.

    PP is a turd and I'm glad he will be gone soon.
