Ive never seen a crowd cheer that loud for an opposing shot

[CandyCaneArms]

Respect to Isaiah Thomas for letting him shoot it, but putting a hand up to make it respectable.

[DragunovSniperElite]

an appropriate ending would be paul pierce dunking on his own net and the rip off his clipers jersey, showing a celtics jersey underneath

When you listen really closely the moment he made the shot, the announcer said "Paul piece for making it sound like he's from the home team. Kinda subtle but it gave me goosebumps. What a career.

[jrdrunksmith]

this put me in tears, my favorite player growing up imma miss him

[Owen-nynq]

15% 3-1 jokes
80% lebron/curry trolls
5% *ACTUAL RESPECT TO THE TRUTH*

I was at this game and I’ll never forget the pop of the crowd when he hit that shot. TV doesn’t really justify it. Then we went home and watched 28-3 cause it was Super Bowl Sunday. What a day

[goldplatinumX]

I love that Isaiah let him take that shot. Much paid respect to a true legend.

[dmggarcia]

Celtics won the game but Paul pierce won the crowd!

[Rodrigolf]

not a Celtics fan, but I love Paul Pierce, what a player

[bucky]

I get chills watching this... I grew up in an era where #34 was the only reason why you could take pride in being a Celtics fan... he might not be as good as MJ or LeBron, but to me he's TBE!

[Coolkid]

How would the crowd react if he had hit a game winner I wonder

[capadzcabrera]

I read that IT actually backed off and allowed Pierce to take that shot. Class act by IT.

[xSAMx]

Isaiah's like "fine, go ahead, shoot" lol

[bangobuck]

Top 20 player of all time easily. Another legend in a franchise that has had plenty.

[bruhc]

I've never seen so much pointless hate in one place than I've seen in comment sections on NBA videos smh

[jbart]

Sad to see him retire. The truth, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated Clutch player in nba.

[luisruelas]

Someone somewhere had the celtics -6 and lost a lot of money

[epicsauce]

Better fans than Knicks fan in that game against the Cavs.

[robny]

Beautiful ending. Damn near shed a tear when that 3 went in. Thanks for the memories. You are The Truth.
