Paul Pierce snitched on dude that stabbed him dude got 20 years for that
The fact that he played all 82 games the following season is a testament to his strength and will. Paul Pierce was a stone cold killer in the clutch and one of the craftiest scorers of all time.
Eric L he has no choice but to play becAuse he had paranoia effect
As a laker this guy gave me nightmares for a week haaaa
The next yr?! He played THAT YEAR! Lol
Lakres fan but I respected him a lot. I expcted the ball to go in whenever he got the ball in clutch time. The Celytics are abosolute trash for trading him and not allowing him to retire 100% a Celtic. He was their Kobe! The Lakers could have rebuilt faster by getting rid of Kobe when he was past his prime but they didn't. The fans generally were ok with it too.
I always got props for chubby ballers. Dudes a certified hall of famer.
Matt barnes is really good at the interviewing thing. He's definitely found his after basketball profession
Tell that to Jax
Jesus ain’t shit compared to him
@@nazsalabarria860 hahahha
@@nazsalabarria860 muhammed PBUH too
He is smart and a natural on the mic. I didn't expect that from him watching his 'tough guy' act while he was a player. He is great at what he does, Jackson is solid too.
All these kids hating on him will never know what type of Savage Pierce was.
they only know him for his last few years
Daniel Canngieter he was stab in gaybar by a shemale lmfao
@@Mysterioatokatokat Why is that stuff on your mind tho 😂😂
Ok he a good player what else u want ppl (20-25)kids to be pressed about
@Handle God That statement shows you havent been a basketball fan for very long. Pierce will be remembered for many decades to come.
Crazy how he got poked that many times early in his career and then still had a HOF career...........
TayMusiq and played every game the following season!
I'm 6'0" always had bounce.....when I was 5'7" in 8th grade I started dunking. About 6 yrs ago when I was 24 I got shot in the leg. I was so depressed and gave up on my athletic ability thinking how unfair it was that I couldn't jump like I used to. Watching this video makes me realize everybody goes through some type of shit and many can become even greater cuz of it....I need to get my ass back on the court. Def needed to see this video no more fucking excuses....
TayMusiq damn dawg hussle and motivate 🙏
TayMusiq i feel what u saying doggy. I caught a staph infection on my leg. Was immobile for a month and Couldnt smash my tricks the way i use to. But that didnt stop me though.!! Best believe i still raise that leg when im gettin it in doggy ya feel. So pull ur skirt up and get back to the gym b, get ur nuts up.!!!
@@jrs351 Anyone can get shot anywhere anytime. You clearly never seen smoke.
This was dude who made me realize you dont have to be fast in your movements, just precise.
facts💪 nothing but "The Truth"
@63 the final resurrection 😂
Accuracy Beats speed, precision beats power
Paul is one of the most fundamentally sound players ever
@westst99 exactly!
Who here from the Benzino Drink Champs interview 😅
Hahaha yessir
Facts
😂😂😂 big facts
Ur mutha. Lol
@brooksfleming7643 is that you Zino? 😂
Got robbed in 2008 and guy hit me in the head with his gun after it jammed. I have carried a Glock 23 .40 on me everyday since. I dont park far out in parking lots. If you walking behind me I stop and BS for a second until people pass me. I'm always looking behind me when people stand behind me in line. Things change for sure.
my girlfriend and i got attacked in our car by some dude with a metal pipe. the guy smashed the window and scared the shit out of us before i was able to drive away, but luckily we weren’t hurt. regardless, i definitely resonate with that paranoia man it’s tough being made to feel so powerless at a vulnerable and unexpected moment. i haven’t bought a gun and don’t think i will, but how have you managed that anxiety and paranoia?
No cap
@@colematthews4120 idk if its too late man but id try to get over it like try to keep my mind off all the time
@@colematthews4120 being confident in your means to defend yourself can definitely relieve some of that. Check out your local mma gyms or buy a gun get your conceal carry and some training. A little bit of paranoia can be good though.
Paul Pierce should be the face of resilience.
Nah that should be Mike Tyson
say yeah both
That should be Kobe
He should be the face of not being aware of your surroundings. Whatchu talkin bout
Say what you want about Paul Pierce, but to overcome this and still become an NBA great is a hell of a life. The Most High brought him through this situation...
Benjamin From The Tribe of Judah and showed him a sign with the kid who got stabbed twice and died. But in this interview he said he was lucky. He missed it!
Kan!
Shalawam
@Larry Myers Tha muthafuckin' Wood!!👊🏾✌🏾🏀
Crazy how under the radar this story is in sports history. If this happened today to a young superstar it would be talked about endlessly
I was stabbed 6 times and I can relate 1000% with everything Paul said. Your life changes... everything changes glad he was ok
Men last knight i had a dream that i was only scratched with a knife on mine chest, ughh what a horrible dream man i wake up really upset. Cant imagine what was tou going through
Glad you're ok bro 🙏
I was stabbed only 3 and I was in the hospital for a month I almost died. My life changed severely for the worse thank God I'm better now.
Id rather be shot than stabbed... just seems like a stabbing is much worse
Glad to hear him talk about his experience in depth. Always wondered how he overcane that. I remember that story and that was unbelievable at the time. The Truth was a beast and almost unguardable for some years.
He carries a gun at all times
Right , I was shocked as shit when I read about a few years back , I never knew
An Shaq gave him the name because he didn't know that Paul could play like that 🍀
@@bradleyclark4656 yep
westst99 I mean he had a better team in 2008 and a way better team than Lebron
@@og3777 o
Get’s stabbed 8 times, doesn’t notice, plays the season like it didn’t happen... the truth
Gets an alleged MCL sprain and gets wheeled off the court. 🤣🤣🤣
@@TigerCraneLove Imagine Kobe losing to a guy who sh himself
What I remember about that incident was the media destroyed him in the news and newspapers. They didn't feel bad for him just blamed him about the incident. They treated him like garbage
Really? That's really fuck up if they did that. Instead of encouraging him to get well, they badmouthing him. Crazy.
P.s STAY SAFE AND STRONG EVERYONE ELSE AROUND THE WORLD.
Like they always do
I was in Boston at tge time & I don't remember that part. I remember everyone saying made men were responsible.
@@Rollothemodel that’s probably another reason they blames Paul. They wouldn’t dare call out who did it
@RSD shhhh mate if doesn't fit the narrative
Man glad he survived that and now he’s living a great life and had a great career.
Damn I heard 50 cent say similar things about being shot.. said it drove him NUTs..
The Thinking Man's Templar do you remember which interview?
Yeah.... But Fif was livin dirty back then as well tho.....😬
Fif shit exaggerated
@@randomquestion379 the whole sequence flew over your head
God’s grace has kept Paul alive. I remember when that story broke out. It was shocking. He was actually wearing a thick leather jacket that night which in part saved his life. I’m glad he didn’t leave this world like that. What a story! Wow!
So god kept him alive but had no part in the stabbing???? Or the leather jacket kept him alive???? I'm confused
@@jordanflores5687 I’m guessing that the leather jacket was thick enough that it kept some of the blade from entering his body, thus making the wounds not as deep or wide since the thickest part of the blade is near the back.
He had that good Ole Avirex leather on that saved him
But where was god’s grace when Paul was getting stabbed multiple times?
I don’t understand why people hate Pierce or the 08 Celtics, I’m not a fan but I understand the 08 Celtics were special and Pierce is one of the best SF to ever play. On top of that he’s one of the few players who played an ENTIRE season of 82 games, I don’t think people know how rare that is, especially in this day and age. On top of that, he played those 82 games on a bad Celtics team, lol they had nothing to play for, yet he played EVERY game completely committed.
Some dudes are weirdos like that. My boy just got messaged by some dude because he laugh reacted a chick's Instagram story.
Sprax that’s crazy 😳
I hate when dudes wanna beat up another guy for getting with their girl lmao your girl is the one who’s cheating on you but you wanna go and get mad at some random dude? Then probably taking your cheating ass girl back? Lol ok
Don't believe everything you hear the guys who attacked Pierce came to the defense of their girl cousins who were rejecting Pierce advances. Check book pt2 SOURCE OF INFORMATION a true story book where the ladies give a quote
This is why I hardly go out anymore, there is always that one dude that starts trouble, and if you're a minority you can get blamed and kicked out by a racist manager/owner. I am just so happy that Pierce was able to recover from this, play a whole 82 games and become one of the best players to ever play the game.
The dudes that stabbed him were also black
Just act right and nothing happens he was being a creep
@ismaelgarcia-alvarez2247 You really think that girl wasn't giving him any play? Lmao c'mon now he thought it was something that it wasn't from the vibe the girl gave, and ignorant ninjas did what we should expect them to do. You have "perfect world" views. Live life and you'll see this world is the furthest thing from perfect.
@@JJTheFoodie what's more likely is that he was being thick Headed and learned the hard way
Night life at the club, watch out for this:
1-Dudes get little alcohol gets disrespectful 2- Chicks try to get back at their dudes set you up 3- Always be ready for whatever
Thank God for you, Truth!!🙌
Bruh deadass, sometimes I be thinking night life ain’t even worth it
This is why IG thots became a thing... smh
bushbusho! Facts
Stay out of sinful places. Evil lurks in places like that. Thankfully Paul Pierce made it and able to share his story.
4- stay out the club it's a boring waste of time and money
9 years later my grandfather died on the date he was stabbed. Paul Pierce is the 🐐!!! R.I.P. Grandpa...
Eternal Darkness no one cares
That Portrait in the background of Nipsey hustle biggie smalls is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 . Lit interview nothing but good vibes #AllTheSmoke
They just added kobe...shit is fire
Wheres 2pac? Smh
This is crazy to see. Met Paul in a bar in Orlando and dude was super cool dapped me up (pre-corona) and everything. He was chilling by himself kinda in the background to where nobody even noticed he was there. Paid my respects to him and kept it moving. Explains why athletes have to move the way they move.
I was a Kobe fan back in the day, and when they would go up against the Celtics, Paul pierce this man was so damn crafty with the basketball he used to give me anxiety. I'm glad he's ok. God bless him. ❤️😇
I met him that year I was like 12 years old he signed a Jersey for me
I hated Paul pierce growing up. Cause I loved the lakers. And I remember in 08 this man just could not miss in those playoffs! Much respect ✊🏻
I've did too but i got too repect the Celtics
This is true. That's the only reason i hated him.
Been stabbed 6 times before... shit ain’t no joke.. respect to Paul Pierce, never knew he went through this situation
As someone who had a similar situation happen to me, the strength it take to get through this is insane. I hate boston, but i love that he made it out alive
Crazy situations most times have something to do with a female smh...
Only a simp ass dude would do that
Brooklynballa a beta insecure ass dude
Benjamin From The Tribe of Judah females are trouble
Nobody's blaming women, just some men really do crazy things over a woman that they normally wouldn't do otherwise.
Dont blame women, they know how to conduct themselves. Term you looking for is "Bitch"
Love this show 💪🏼 !!!
Bruh got stabbed 8 times and hit the head with a broken bottle and didn't fall
VICTOR RIBEIRO I’m just going off of guy version of the story
I think alcohol probably had something to do with him not remember how things got escalated so quickly and with him not feeling the pain of being stabbed lol not just adrenaline did that imo
Lucky hes a big dude and was young and in elite athlete shape. Sure that saved him
Love this podcast. Such a relaxed conversion about some real shit
Matt Barnes is legit very very intelligent. Dude needs his on TV show for real. Definitely my fav retired athlete 🙌🏾💪🏾
Paul Pierce is blessed to be alive...🙏🏾
My favorite player Paul Pierce The MF Truth
Loving the show y'all, hope y'all all the success
The best show man.. anxiety issues is real
I’m from Boston. PP is a LEGEND!!!
I LIVE IN KC..GO JAYHAWKS..(P.P)
I learn something new about Matt and Stephen every single show. I love that about this podcast.
Dope ass interview fr 💪 💯The Truth droppn gems. This convo got me working extra hours on my craft.
Such a great clip
We as sports fans remember watching that segment from the news about Paul Pierce getting stabbed at the club and almost dying which was a big story and thank God he recovered. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL GUYS!! KEEP IT UP!! MATT AND CAPT JACK THE BEST DUO
Man this was a deep interview. Love how guests open up on this show.
So funny how ESPN tried to turn this guy into a joke I remember Michele beadle talkn shit like she was better
Paul pierce was hitting that
Paul pierce was legend until he retired, got on TV and started hypin himself up and saying dumb shit on ESPN. Nobody did it to him, he did it to himself.
Huh? Dude is a HOF player no one denies that
He says dumb shit and everybody makes fun of him. Not beadles fault
@Chris Middleton Just on an individual level, Wade was a more productive offensive player and a much better defensive player and for several years was always in the MVP discussion. Paul was good but he was always a tier below those players.
In other words, at their peaks Wade was a consistent All-NBA second teamer, while Pierce was more a third teamer.
This story was always in my head when i see these sad fools clowning him lately
Keep in mind. Many who were joking on him was joking about paul the basketball player. Not the person
Man matt barnes is one of the BEST interviewers EVER! man dude ask ALL the perfect questions and he is so damn good at making the guests feel comfertable... Damn Matt must have been a Psychiatrist in the past life
This is really why he's the TRUTH 💪🏾
I remember this like it was yesterday goes to show at any level of success in life life can change in a instant
U want tha Truth u cant handle Tha Truth my favourite player pierce is a survivor
This is by far the best athletes podcast 2 real niggaz who happen to have played in the NBA interviewing other real niggaz who also played in the NBA and asking the questions we all want to know the answers to they get the best stories out there from players 🔥🔥💯
I met double P in a club in Charlotte in 2001. Not thinking about it I just went up to say what's up. He had such a intense look on his face. I dapped him up said I respect your game man. Hr dapped me up said cool. It was like maybe 3 week's later it hit me. I was like dude was just on high alert after that club incident.
A topic the other podcast was scared to talk about 💯✊🏽
Why y’all always try to pin people against each other
Homie its enough money for both podcasts. Stop pinning them against each other.
Caballo Negro exactly both is needed . Players feel more comfortable talking to other players which benefits us the fans cause we get deeper interviews
Paul Pierce is The Truth and a Champion. Total legend!!! Tough and smart and never quit. We love you Paul Pierce.
"Allegedly" They Were Associates Of Benzino.... At Least That Was The Inside Story At The Time...
I heard that too
Heard it was too coming up. They was Almighty RSO

Big respect for Pirce on his honesty
Ive always beena huge fan of Paul Pierce and "The Answer vs the Truth" was one of the greatest games I ever had the pleasure of watching live.
Word, big bro
Pierce a celts legend miss watching him in that green 34 jersey one my favorite players growing up
Earlier that yr in Cancun on Memorial Day wknd, Paul was about to get jumped/whooped by some dudes from Alabama in the same type scenario. Getting at a chick and some dude tripping behind her. Smh
@John Peaches yep. Cancun AllStar Fiesta wknd. Inside Bulldog Cafe on a Fri nite 2 guys about 6'0 tall. The one that was mad about the chic ended up straight up dropping Beyonce bodyguard named Tiny (about 6'9...300+ lbs) with a 2 piece. Then they got suplexed by another security guy. LOL All this happened literally 4 ft from me as me n my boy was at the bar with Paul, Gary Payton, Vince Carter, Garrison Hearst and a couple of the guys that started FUBU.
Damn.. You saying he was behaving like he was untouchable?
@@Rollothemodel not at all. Man we all were taking shots. Ol girl walked up and started talking to him Dude came up and started straight tripping.
@@johnnytatum7023 gotchu.
Yeah that was crazy. The truth was lucky
Facts! He easily could of gotten stabbed in his chest or neck. Life could have been gone over some bullshit.
Jay Starks luck of the Irish ;)
blessed
Wow.. to come back and be a champion! No wonder why he was such a soldier on the basketball battlefield!💯🙏
Love Paul Pierce. Sometimes it takes ya life to be almost gone to really appreciate life forreal
Real talk !
I went to a game in spring of 2001 few months after this. He was playing by then. They played the cavs. We had nose bleeds but nobody was really there so we snuck down and sat behind the hoop near cs bench. I stepped on the court during halftime and got up close to pierce and walker. They seemed like giants, I was only 13. Pretty cool moment
I never been stabbed but i got cut in my foot after stepping on a bottle. Got 2 stitches i know how he feel the streets unpredictable man 1 minute u running on the grass playing football next minute u passed out on the ground seeing the heavens open up and ur momas voice as blood comin out ur foot. I dont know who left that broken glass there but man it dont matter because we forgive that man for all he put me and my family thru because i turned to god and thats u do when u survive shit like this. Very humbling Paul Pierce
Yeah I got a paper cut before too. I also forgave the tree that the paper came from also
Bro I'm crying laughing
@@03bubbachuck lmao in all seriousness some fool left a broken glass bottle at the bottom of the pool and I got cut too should have sued the apt complex that happened in
And you made it through that? I wonder who's gonna play you in the movie.
This the softest shit I done read 😂😂
#Truth...respect!
Love this fckn show!! Stack should deff talk more!!! He's knowledgeable n wise w his perspective. Matt Barnes is like literally a perfect host. Dope af
Could’ve been a blessing in disguise... basketball saved him
Holly I didn't even know this happened to him. Lucky to be alive. Wow
P.s STAY SAFE AND STRONG EVERYONE ELSE AROUND THE WORLD.
I was out one night with friends in Newport RI where the Celtics had training camp that week, Pierce came into a bar we were at with his hood on super low key. He slithered through the crowd past me and I said what up and kept it moving, but I remember thinking to myself about the stabbing and how scared he must be of crowds like that. Any moment that shit could happen again. I know the crowd Pierce surrounded himself with back then was different, but he probably has still never fully shook that scared feeling and paranoia of being in a place surrounded by tons of people you don't know. Totally understandable how it changed his life and I'm glad it seemed to change him for the better and surround himself with better people and situations.
Damn. I still remember The Dave Chappelle Skit. Sorry I Laughed 💯
Smh
Lmao hold up which one
@@YtCsBt Dave Chappelle athletes everyday
When keepin it real goes wrong
@@doruk4374 wrong skit
I was working in the Clinical Research field for a company in Waltham (20 miles from Boston) in very early 2000's. Up the street was the Health Point Gym a new 70,000 sq ft facility that I used to go after work to shoot hoops and lift weights during commute hours before driving home. The Celtics used this as a training facility and I always saw the well known retired Celtics ML Carr that lived nearby playing hoops with local members on regular basis. I was no kid but in late 30's I could still military press a set of 8 of 200 lbs at 190 lb body weight. This tall young dude starting talking with me and said his brother played for the Celtics Tony Battie and he said he was Derrick (he was 6'9) and he was working out with Celtics in off season. Maybe once a week we ran into each other for about a month and worked out a little together and talked.
I always knew about Paul Pierce getting stabbed at a Boston night club in a very serious incident with a couple of fellow ball players. I never realized that Tony Battie who played 1998-2005 for Celtics at Center was with his younger brother Derrick at that night club.. Time I met Derrick was shortly after the the Pierce incident but I never put two and two together until recently 20 years later. Derrick and his brother were from Dallas and he played college ball for Temple and around this time in 2000-2001 was playing CBA ball for Connecticut Pride that one year. I understand the two brothers helped save Pierce getting him to the hospital quickly.
Mad respect for Paul Pierce after all this trauma months later he plays all 82 games. Pierce was a super class man and Celtics great.
Gotta realize these dudes are real ppl facts too EVERYTHING they said
I was never a Paul pierce fan but I respected the hell out of that man.
The Truth.
3:04 he almost cussed 😂😂💯
This show is becoming an All Time Great shit I don’t like it I love it keep up with the great work boys
Yo that mural is Crazy hard💯
6:00 - 6:15 its the same with non celebrity ppl too, except we still gotta get on public transportation. You feel weird or anxious & ppl pick up on your vibe then they look at you the same way. But anyways, glad he came out okay!
Is there any video of his first game that season? I'd love to see the crowd reaction
Just google Celtics Paul Pierce and the date of the game... come on people ...
Kimberly Becoat your comment is a waste of time/space, say something beneficial or nothing at all
My favorite player growing up. Killa on the right wing, slow but crafty.
As a Lakers fan I couldn’t stand the Celtics but always had love for Paul Pierce and Antwoine Walker. Those dudes were beasts in their day. One thing about Paul was that he’s not athletic and hella slow, but boy could that man score! Nothing but respect for this man 💯
Showtime Mike he made it happen for sure. Always liked him. Never was an antwon walker fan though. Crazy that they were successful with two not very athletic dudes on the squad. Carmelo Anthony, he’s the most unathletic player I’ve ever seen. Can shoot the lights out though. But whenever he dunked you know he was going home hyped.
Im from Akron Ohio, and i rock my black and green Pierce Jersey all the time. TRUTH.
My favorite player. The Truth!!!!
THE TRUTH! ☘
PP is the truth. I remember when he got stabbed, the media tried to destroy him. I think this was the best interview yet. The stories about Garnett and GP are always so funny.
I am a Boston guy and the media did try to destroy him. Pierce was just a Celtic two years before this incident and was 20-21 years old but already a 16 ppg player however he was painted as a trouble maker in a night club
Props to Matt Barnes for touching on the mental health aspect....👍🏾🙏🏿👊🏿
Omg!!!
Meanwhile Mr. Triple Single thinking he a bad man lmfao
Russell Johnson yes
Dray one of the best defenders ever and an elite passer. 3x champion. His job isn't to score, casual.
Antoneus Johnson nah his job is to do absolutely nothing without curry and Klay
Antoneus Johnson he got exposed this year tho 😂🤣
