Paul Pierce "I'm not sure if I want to see IT's video on my night"

Just said it on "The Jump". This is the same issue I and I know many other Celtics fans have too with the whole IT tribute video thing. Pierce didn't really sound too thrilled with the idea of IT's video happening on his jersey retirement even though he was smiling and laughing while speaking. He did say he deserves a tribute video but it should have been last night. Your thoughts?

Wow. Did he really say that?

It is an Odd thing, to do both.
But Pierce's Jersey Retirement, is going to be After the Game.

Read on Twitter

Also mentioned he watched Kobe's retirement and thought it was cool to see them show highlights of Kobe after every timeout. Not his exact words but something along those lines. I don't have an issue with Paul saying this at all imo. It should be solely about his night. It's the last big honor we can thank Paul for as a member of the Celtics.

Another comment that's gonna be blown out of proportion. Pierce has every right to feel that way. It's his night.

Cue Draymond Green - "You thought you was Kobe? They don't love you like that."

I couldn't find all this anymore trivial than I do.

If Pierce is not OK with it, the Celtics organization shouldn't be too. But they're already showing it on Feb 11 (unless they change their mind) so it's a moot point.

I read on Twitter that he did. And was pissed that he missed it while doing the handshakes thing with his teammates.

Isaiah Thomas could of sat out blazers game and played in Boston, it isn't an entitlement it's a privilege. Pierce's night was already planned Pierce is correct I believe, so Isaiah could wait till next year. We are not going to reschedule or share the light of the truth

It´s the Truth´s night. No video for IT, he should have just accepted a video when he was going to get one.

That's weird, Pierce said the night before he had no issue with IT getting one that night.

No one likes you here anymore or wants you around, just FYI, but post whatever you want.

You don't do a video tribute to a guy who spend 2 and a half seasons here and is complaining about being traded, while you are honoring a Celtic Legend who spend 15 years in Boston and won a championship.
