Tale of 2 Paul's! Paul WON this game for us

[SShoreFan]

My point is not to rip KG.  I'm sorry if I did that but I'm just frustrated that he gets all the credit when we win and Pierce gets blamed when we lose.  I'm not saying KG hurt us, but he does not really step up in these situations.  I just want paul to get the recognition that he deserves

How is the quote "Where was KG tonight" supposed to be anything but trying to rip KG?!

You can't sit there and make a comment like that and expect that people will interpret that as you complimenting PP. PP was outstanding tonight. No question. KG on the other hand played very good tonight and has been the one constant in this series. Without KG we wouldn't be talking about a game 7 win...

Enough guys --- great game.  PP carried the Green tonight, KG will do it sometime soon.

So sorry. I didn't know we didn't have your permission to discuss tonight's game on here. I thought this was a blog or something but I must have misread the title.

Lol, calm yourself down man.  I said I was sorry if it came out like that. I just still think this is Paul's team

This is the Pierce I've been waiting for all playoffs. Whatta game.

I don't have an issue with your post disagreeing with me, even though I think you were taking a big undeserved jab at KG 

I don't however think that someone who isn't even in the discussion that is not a moderator ought to be telling people what they are allowed to discuss.

Keep up the posts!

Thank You Paul Pierce..you were beyond amazing tonight- You showed the true heart of a champion and I look forward to seeing more of that beast that emerged tonight in the next 8 wins as we continue our march towards 17....

I never thought Paul Pierce and Larry Bird would be said in comparison out of my mouth but I confess, it did..this game brought me back to the great Dominique vs Bird matchup of 88..PP brought us to the next round and refused to lose today...The last time I remember PP going off like this in a memorable game had to be that crazy one vs the Nets years back...but this one was much more significant in my eyes as the threat of us winning a title this year is very real...

EJ -- the dude said he was sorry.  Once someone says sorry where's the point in piling on the argument??

#1 He was contradicting what he said in his other post and I was pointing that out.

#2 I wasn't piling on because I was trading posts with him. I simply pointed out that KG played one heck of a game tonight and outplayed his Cavs counterparts.

#3 YOU were the one that was jumping into the middle of it. What's the point in that?! We were doing just fine without you telling us whether or not we could keep discussing our differing opinion. If he or I didn't want to keep it up it could drop right there.

Thanks for straightening us out though.

BACK TO BASKETBALL!!!! What a game!!!! Paul was amazing and I've been waiting so long for this.  Going back to the ECF since 2002!!! I'm so excited and I can't believe I just saw that performance.  PP = All time celtic great

[Raygus]

pierce was absolutely incredible. he took on the cavs, the refs, the national media - everybody. i love this guy, always have, and now i get definitive evidence for my "pierce is overlooked" arguments with my cavs-fan friends. just a fantastic day to be a celtic fan.

Amen to that!

What I thought he did very well tonight was using the pick to be able to get just enough space to get off that jumper. He hadn't been getting any space to be able to get it off and so was forced to spin wildly to the basket. None of that tonight. When he wasn't open he moved the ball. Other than that one play where Lebron stole it at the end trying to pass around him I thought he used that high pick very well!

I am also convinced that new free throw form is the difference in us moving on. He wouldn;t have hit those in the old days. 11-12 is clutch!!

Paul Pierce is the Celtics.  The one player who has stuck around.  Where was KG tonight?  He doesn't have what it takes to come up big... I don't want to bash KG but I'm just so frustrated that everyone wants to give him all the credit for this team.  Paul is a hall of famer.  I'm glad he was able to show it on the biggest stage today.

he didn't score, but he did have 13 huge rebounds, great defense, and 15 points. lets not act like he had a terrible game...

But yea, thats the best all around game if seen paul play in his career, because he didn't force anything, i mean, he took his shots in rythm, got assists, and played great D.

an all time game.

Lebron just said Paul is one of his favorit players to watch and has the second best footwork in the league next to kobe... I can't wait to read what the national media says.  And actually the local media because they are the hardest on him
