Pierce better win MVP

[coachmac87]

He fuckin better win finals MVP

[itzsoweezee]

uh, ray allen's the mvp.

[BiZNicK]

He has to be the obvious choice...

He's been the best celtics player...most consistent, most clutch.

[slowchild25]

Pierces game 3 hurt him. I'm thinking Ray Allen as well.

[dbreiden83080]

uh, ray allen's the mvp.

Maybe co-mvp, KG better get nowhere near that thing

[timvp]

It's going to be Ray Allen :(

[ducks]

allen has played the best so far for boston

[ducks]

It's going to be Ray Allen :(

allen may choke in game 5

[lefty]

Pierce WAS the reason Celtics won tonight:

- his and 1 in the third Q sparked the comeback
- his D on Kobe was awesome

[dbreiden83080]

Pierces game 3 hurt him. I'm thinking Ray Allen as well.

Yeah but he was the best player in games 1 and 2

[coachmac87]

the series isnt over either....but i think pierce "epic comeback" will be too hard to pass up

[JamStone]

If Boston wins, they might still give it to Kobe.

I think that's only happened one other time with Jerry West.

[milkyway21]

Amen :worthy:

I don't think KG would mind, after his 1st rnd choke jobs for how many yrs. he'll sure be happy just holding a trophy if they can win the LOB.:lmao

Powe did an amazing job too.

[ducks]

yeah how espn was trying to hype their golden boy tonight

[itzsoweezee]

If Boston wins, they might still give it to Kobe.

I think that's only happened one other time with Jerry West.

gtfoh. no way that happens. especially after this chokejob.

[Spurtacus]

Leaning towards Ray Allen right now. I won't cast a vote until the final game.

[Spurtacus]

If Boston wins, they might still give it to Kobe.

I think that's only happened one other time with Jerry West.

:lmao

[peskypesky]

yep, Paul Pierce is the MVP so far

[milkyway21]

i can still remember that pre-season rumors:

Celtics wanted to trade Pierce.

What a yr..:D

[lefty]

Barkley would say: " I thought Pierce played fantashtic "

[slowchild25]

If Boston wins, they might still give it to Kobe.

I think that's only happened one other time with Jerry West.

Wasn't that a 7 game series though? It'd be pretty hard to justify an MVP from a team that loses the series 4-1 or 4-2.

[JoeTait75]

Forget Ray Allen. Paul Pierce is the reason they're in this position in the first place. Without Paul Pierce stepping up, the C's don't get by my boys in the second round.

I've gained respect for Paul I didn't have before. He's the straw that stirs that drink. And as of now, he deserves the Finals MVP.

[ca®lo]

ray allen? you gotta be fucking kidding me.

if the celts win the finals mvp is gonna be pierce no doubt.

plus he also plays great d. take a look at his job on kobe.

put allen on kobe, kobe will get 999999999999999999 points

[milkyway21]

LA paps did an embarrasing video of Pierce who had a night out before game 3. As if he was out all night visited the nite spots and lacked sleep that's why they lost that game :p:

okay beautiful people of Los Angeles you can go to sleep now.

[J.T.]

Pierce will probably get it almost solely because of his injury shenanigans but clearly he overreacted to a very minor injury in that first game, and tried to play off another one again tonight. If he has a big game and they win on Sunday, then he will probably get it unanimously, but if he doesn't Allen has a shot at it too.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Allen would be bullshit

Pierce is doing it on both ends.

Holding Kobe to 6-19 is great. It hurts me to say it but he puts Bowen to shame this year.

[Supergirl]

Absolutely Pierce will be the Finals MVP. No doubt in my mind. Celts close this out in 5 - maybe 6 back in Boston - and it will be all Pierce.

Incidentally, no one up here in Boston was talking seriously about trading Pierce. Pierce talked about possibly wanting out, but that was before KG and Allen were even on the horizon. He's up there with Duncan as one of the most loyal still active players in the NBA.

[dbreiden83080]

If Boston wins, they might still give it to Kobe.

I think that's only happened one other time with Jerry West.

LOL, what did you see how bad Kobe was tonight and if this only 5 games that would never happen

[peskypesky]

Pierce was the leading scorer in two of the three Celtics wins, I think. That might count for something.

[lefty]

Paul Pierce has always been one of my favorite players in the NBA

I've always thought he was clutch and a great competitor.

He is not intimidated by any team.

I'll be so happy for him if they win the title. :toast:toast:toast

[QuietDynasty]

i can still remember that pre-season rumors:

What a yr..:D


until they heard the crying coming out of the wolves....

[TDMVPDPOY]

He is not intimidated by any team.



a team of street thugs his afraid of

[Pistons < Spurs]

Pierce should get the MVP .... but all of the big 3 are having a nice series. A big game from Allen or KG could see them getting it just as easily.
