In only the second most embarrassing thing to happen to Paul Pierce concerning the Boston Celtics, Pierce had to back up his big talk after Boston blew another 20-point lead in their Game 2 loss to the New York Knicks. After the Celtics blew a 20-point lead to lose Game 1 to the New York Knicks, Pierce went on TV and said that he would walk 15 miles to work the next day if the Celtics lost to the Knicks again, to the disbelief of all his cohosts.
Paul Pierce had to do an 8-hour walk of shame to pay off his dumb Celtics bet
Somehow this is only the second most embarrassing thing to to happen to Pierce that involves the Celtics
Well, you know what they say: the more you mess around, the more you find out. The Celtics somehow blew another 20-point second half lead in Game 2 and allowed the Knicks to earn a stunning win. New York is now up 2-0 with the best-of-7 series heading to Madison Square Garden.
Yes, Pierce actually backed up what he said. The Hall of Fame scorer filmed himself on his 15 mile walk and provided updates to fans along the way.
Pierce dropped the route he allegedly took on his walk. It took him more than 20 miles and eight hours to walk into work.
This is also a reminder to never make outlandish bets on live television for international audiences, because nobody ever forgets the things you say. Pierce has to walk 20 miles from his home to the studio, an outlandish number that is definitely not going to put him in the office on time, but it’s the principle of it that matters the most.
I just hope they won’t have to carry him off the sidewalk so he can go poop, because that would be crazy.
