Paul Pierce: How Boston became my town

"But for me, blogging is going to give me a chance to let other people get to know me even better, which is what I really want. When I'm done with this game I want people to know more about Paul Pierce as a person than just as a basketball player."

Paul is blogging for the wrong Celtics Blog...

Yeah Jeff...what happened to the influence?

Nice to see him talking to us but I would have preferred a sitdown with Master Po. That would have provided weeks of entertainment.

What a cool dude.

Now he’s blogging what can’t he do?

What I like is that that absolutely sounds like him--it isn't his agent typing. I think he grew up in this town, which makes us all proud of him.

Did he actually write this himself? If he did, I’m actually surprised at how articulate he is. That was as well-written as a lot of the columns that come from people who do that for a living.

He might've said it or wrote a draft...

But I don’t think he wrote it. It looks like his agent took over his Twitter account as well. I seriously doubt him writing all of this litterally in the way it’s just been presented to us.

Havig said that, I honestly think this is a great move. Judging from the postgame interviews with him and KG, he’s a funny dde and I really want to get to know the captain a bit better cuz I fell I know more about KG and Ray than I do about Paul, and he probably deserves more respect from me than he gets right now.

speaking of Paul, has anyone seen that flip video commercial with him and his daughter? it’s quite cute.

Also, I don’t think his agent does his twitter…he really never posts on there but a couple of days ago it was asking what he should get his daughter for xmas or something. Why would his agent do that? The promo type tweets, yeah, but that? It doesn’t matter though. This was a cool article and probably got edited like most pieces for a newspaper, but still…quite cool.

Class Act.

Its nice to see that you can be a super star, a good guy, and not a cocky git at the same time.

He is too good to be true!

Think about it…

PP grows up a Laker fan in Inglewood…within a mile of the Forum…gets drafted by the “enemy”…gets stabbed and nearly loses his life…plays virtually his first 10 years on terrible teams.

Yet, he never demands a trade.

Instead, he wins the Finals MVP in the first year he`s surrounded by talent, and only speaks highly of Boston!
