YOU SIR, ARE NO WILLIS REED

if I hear one more reference to Paul Pierce pulling a Willis Reed last night, I’m going to hang myself.

Willis Reed was legitimately hurt when he limped out onto the floor in Game 7 of the 1970 Finals. He was hurt so bad, he couldn’t play more than 15 minutes that game. He was dragging his leg as he ran up the court.

Pierce was carried off to the locker room because he said he heard a pop but miraculously his “injured knee” didn’t stop him from taking one of the worst flops I’ve ever seen on Derrick Fisher.

It was as if he transformed himself into the black version of Manu Ginobili.

Truly an embarrassment to basketball.

As my sister would say so eloquently Mr. Pierce,

Save the Drama for yo mama.
