Paul Pierce's Basketball Hall of Fame Enshrinement Speech

real basketball fans know how good paul pierce was.

My hero. Finally, a HOF. Love him or hate him, he truly is one of the best during his time. The Truth! 🏀🏆☘️

He wasnt quick with it but you couldnt stop him..congratulations Truth. Beantown Love..

I’m happy he brought up getting stabbed 11x and still played 82 games. That was the coolest fact korzemba ever taught me

best hall of fame speech ever. his hall of fame speech belongs in the hall of fame. this guy needs his own show. funny and eloquent and composed.

My all time favorite player .. loved watching his entire career. The late great Kobe Bryant always said how difficult it was to guard Paul, and Shaq named him "The Truth" congrats Paul

"an arsonist" would be an awesome nickname for a basketball player.

The truth is, he's a hall of famer! Congrats Paul! Well deserved!

Grew up watching The Truth, dude was clutch and glad he got his ring in 2008. Loyalty was rewarded.

My nickname for Paul Pierce throughout his career was always “1st ballot” mainly cause of his performance in the playoffs he always elevated his game to another level well deserved HOF

I happy for you Paul pierce. You will always be a legend for the Celtics.

I will always remember Draymond heckling Paul Pierce, "Who you think you are? You ain't Kobe." But Paul Pierce was dangerous with the Celtics played great defense on Kob.

That hungover story is too real 😂. Pierce was so happy he let him go home.

Thanking the teams that passed on him was superb 🤣

mothers of my children line was just smooth lol

13:37 if you ever need a girl holla at me. HAHAHAHAHAA Jesus Shuttlesworth don’t need that

One of the Best Jersey sellers of all times!

6:08 Dwayne wade wasn't feelin the police volleyball leauge lmao

Paul Pierce is high as a kite.😂😂😂 Congrats to the Truth.

4th In 3-Pointers All Time 9th In Free Throws made ALL TIME 15th All Time in Scoring. 20th in steals all time At the time he retired 10x NBA All Star NBA champion and beat Kobe & LeBron while doing it and won finals MVP @paulpierce @money23green Shame on you Draymond he wasn't Kobe but who is Kobe Bro ? Kobe Is arguably 1 of the greatest 3 to 5 players the world has ever seen You really made it cool for people that are younger and didn't get to witness pierce on his prime disrespect him The truth is I been watching basketball for 25+ Years and Paul Pierce Is the most underrated and unappreciated player during that span The man beat Kobe and LeBron on his way to winning a title and finals mvp Only 14 players scored more than him when he retired paul pierce was ahead of his time but I understand the hate he gets LeBron has alot of haters but he also has the biggest fan base and his fans will forever be salty that Boston and Paul Pierce kept sending him home in the playoffs to the point he had to run down to Miami because he couldn't get past The Pierce led celtics Same reason MJ fans and Bulls fans hate the pistons .... We owned LeBron James before he was able to spread his wings and fly Mentally he was weak against us and always choked..... If not for KG injury The Celtics could have 3peated but noone is ready for that conversation If not for KG INJURY Kobe would be sitting at 3 Rings not 5 KG injury took alot from him He was already in year 15 and that injury made him regress so much that when he came back his quickness and leap ability were a shell .... And I love Kobe Bryant no disrespect he is one of my idols but if Kevin doesn't get hurt we go back to back in 2009 and in 2010 we were up 3-2 when Perkins got hurt at the very beginning of game 6 If u know u know This Celtics Team was one injury away from possibly being a Dynasty In 2012 a washed up Big 3 even had a 3-2 lead in the Eastern conference finals against a Prime LeBron, Wade and Bosh Imagine if KG and Allen would of been in Boston 5 years earlier around 2003 instead of 2008 We would of won like 4-5
