Bluza z kapturem SLAM Hardwood Classics - Paul Pierce (SLAM 121)

Six games plus one wheelchair equals history.

The Celtics’ Big 3 captured their sixteenth championship with these ingredients. Kevin Garnett dominated the glass, Ray Allen couldn’t miss from three, and Paul Pierce, the ‘08 Finals MVP, did it all.

Pierce twisted his knee so bad in Game 1 of the Finals that he needed to be carted off with 6:49 remaining in the third quarter. He thought he heard a pop when he went down. But this is a man who survived being stabbed eleven times. One twisted knee wasn’t going to stop him from playing in the Finals. He returned just with 5:04 remaining in the third quarter. A few minutes later, bang, three-ball from the right wing. On the very next possession, bang, another three-ball from the right wing. Yet another instant classic in Beantown. The lifelong Celtic (up to that point) had finally stamped his name into the hallowed history books of Boston basketball.

More iconic movement would follow Pierce throughout the last stage of the postseason, enough for him to lead the Cs in scoring and be named 2008 Finals MVP.

The trophy he’s holding on the cover of SLAM 121 was the answer to all questions that plagued Boston; can the Big 3 play together? Who is this unknown point guard? They almost lost to Atlanta so how in the world are they gonna win everything? So many more.

The simple response? Paul Pierce is really The Truth.
