Patty Mills+FollowThe Trade That Keeps on Giving… to BostonBack in 2013, the Nets went all-in for Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Jason Terry, thinking they’d be title contenders. What they gave up? Three first-round picks (plus a swap) that turned into Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and the foundation of the Celtics’ current dynasty window. Brooklyn got one playoff series win out of it. Boston got a decade of contention. Some trades age like wine. This one aged like milk. #NBA #NBATrades #Celtics #Nets #JaylenBrown #JaysonTatum #KevinGarnett #PaulPierce #NBAHistory #TradeFail #Sports 1018Share

Beth Holland+FollowPaul Pierce on LeBron’s Legendary Game 6 in BostonPaul Pierce looked back on LeBron James’ iconic Game 6 performance in the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals: “He came to Boston, Game 6, I think it was in 2012, and he gave me the 40-something piece, because I was about to go back to the Finals. He played the game of his life... I helped him get over the top, because I had to test his mental, his physical, and that’s why he’s one of the GOATs.” LeBron dropped 45 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists to force a Game 7 — one of the greatest elimination-game performances in NBA history. Even Pierce admits that night was a defining moment that elevated LeBron into the GOAT conversation. #LeBronJames #PaulPierce #NBAPlayoffs #NBAHistory #GOATDebate #BasketballDebate #Sports 131Share
