I know everyone talks about the rings. If I were a player, this is what I would play for. The moment when you play your final game and a whole stadium comes to its feet to cheer you. Beyond a ring, what Pierce gave to us was a generation of memories, and that's worth far more than any ring. Thank you PP! Forever a Celtic!
I saw this live on TV and have never forgotten about it. Especially hearing “We want Paul” and Paul hitting his last shot ever at TD Garden - a 3-pointer at that. In addition to him kissing the floor. The whole thing almost made me cry and it still kind of hits me today.
I'm a Lakers fan, but still got goosebumps watching this. I "hated" PP when our teams went head to head, but always had respect for him and his ability. What a legend!
such an emotional afternoon this was. Im from Los Angeles but a die hard Celtics fan. I always told myself when I go to Boston to watch the Celtics play it's has to be a special game. Paul Pierce last game in the garden with floor seats. doesn't get more special than that. #thankyoupaul
Doc should have let him play last two mins but hitting the dagger at the end of the game, one of the best moments in Celtics history we love you Paul and still giving Celtics mad credit even as a commentator 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🍀
That was an incredible moment. The fans chanting for him to play (even tho he doesn’t play for that team anymore lol), the other players clapping for him when he gets subbed in, and the 3pt shot was the cherry on top of the cake.
I been a Celtic fan since 90 & to watch another great Celtic player get this amount of love from the fans when they move on is priceless salute to another Celtic great if only doc would have game him more time being as tho it was his last game
You and I both know Marcus is gonna get the lavish treatment from Boston maybe not like Paul but it will be in the ballpark of how they showed Paul love ppl can say what they want about Celtics fans but they love their players and are loyal to the soil!!
Paul was my generations Larry. We do not forget the work you put in in this city. Even though it's been taken over by yuppies in the last 20 years the hard workers and die hard are still here. We're up in the nosebleeds, but we're louder than the rest.
Close, but it was a few hours later. I was lucky enough to be at this particular game that day and immediately go home to watch the amazing Pats come back.
Very emotional game for me! I was really sad when we traded him away even though it was a steal for us. Even then I knew that it was a great trade for us, but it still made me very sad to see one of my favorite players go. It really is a shame that he could not retire as a life long Celtic.
they absolutely had to trade them. There was no question. It's still tough for us fans though. Idc about Pierce's ranking in NBA history, to us, he was our generation's Larry Bird. He was awesome, and played his heart out every single night. He was a legitimate NBA star, and any number of NBA players will tell you that. Those are the only opinions I care about....the players who played against the competition. Pierce was a great during this ERA, and his contributions to Boston will never be forgotten.
Some fans bashing pierce for not getting the same love as kobe and dwade when they retired. They don't know the love that boston fans have for him is worth 10x that of kobe and dwade and their retirement tour gimmicks.
The game still has 11 seconds and only has a 5 point margin, players of Clippers should foul to stop the clock instead of get immersed of Pierce's 3 point field goal. It may has the chance to get an overtime play.

That goosebump moment when he shoots for 3 (for Clippers), and the Celtics fans cheer for Paul Pierce.

So nice to the people in Boston paying tribute to Paul Pierce one last time.
Nearly brought me to tears.

ThunderBuddies2.0......melhor dupla que ja vi na nba...pena que kevin durant escolheu um caminho mais fasio para ser campeao....
Amazing human being. They don’t make players like Paul anymore. Favorite Celtic ever

Jacob Baca yeah he should srick to playing cause man is talking nonsense as a commentator

Boston respects the players that have their all. Smart should get a great ovation when he comes to Boston too.

I got to see this game live, this was the most emotional and exciting crowd you could’ve ever heard for a former player
the only time when Isaiah Thomas wanted opponent team to score... I miss him too...
Paul was my generations Larry. We do not forget the work you put in in this city. Even though it's been taken over by yuppies in the last 20 years the hard workers and die hard are still here. We're up in the nosebleeds, but we're louder than the rest.
Born and raised in Somerville, I hate that it got taken over by yuppies. Us true fans will always bleed green🍀
his smile alway tell me to enjoy basketball enjoy victory and enjoy day with teammate
cried... no lie lol
@The Ghost of Eric Lynch Love the name...as a Boston fan how could you not tear up a bit watching this?!
PAUL PIERCE for THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the goosebumps
Lakers fan for life but he did scare me in the finals 😁
The Goat woah..i man’s being nice..no need for that comparing bullshit
Gorman telling him "We love you Paul" at the end brought all the feels had to watch this on his jersey retirement day.
THE TRUTH!!! Boston Celtics fan for life ☘️ #ibleedgreen
At this very moment, the falcons were blowing a 28-3 lead
Nick Buongiorno the game was actually a few hours before
Oh alright
Nick Buongiorno 😂😂
Close, but it was a few hours later. I was lucky enough to be at this particular game that day and immediately go home to watch the amazing Pats come back.
i would like the comment but i like it to stay at 69
I love the announcer doing it like he’s a home player
Because he is and will always be a home player
The crowd made him emotional 😭😭

what a emotional game for Paul Pierce

Świetna końcówka :)
Miss him man
Paul pierce is my super truly idol.. God bless u idol..
those fans are just respectful
This day, along with 10/13/2013, were probably the two best days to be a Boston sports fan.
Paul pierce i miss you on last game retired thank you all of game
on the day of superbowl LI too, damn
Everyone yelling WE WANT PAUL or PAUL PIERCE. Cool and funny
Hated by many in the nba .but the city of BOSTON loves hime.cool to see him never scoreless in his career. Cool little fact
respect
I still rock my paul jersey to games
Got to meet and hang out with him one night out in Boston in 2006. I was 24 and star struck. Totally unplanned
It’s not about the Jersey your wearing, it’s about who’s wearing the jersey
Mr Clutch forever the TRUTH
Ngl, it made me cry a little when he hit the 3, and everyone cheered.
Chant: Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth, Truth!!!!!
This shit lowkey made me cry
Disgusting seeing him in a Clippers jersey in his last game.... This was so sad
Celtics Nation at least he retired a Celtic
Who cried 😭😫🥺
Bro... griffin and al play with pierce... trully goat
He never should have fucking left.
That was probably the happiest a team has been when they lost the clippers lol
they won 102-107
Celtics did lol
The Truth
Young pierce was the #TRUTH
Doc hearing we want Paul : he’s already out there
who else here after kyrie stomped on this logo?
The truth 😭
im so glad he made that fuckin shot
The Truth shall set you free!!!
Kind of random but four years later I’m still bummed this was a national game and Mike and Tommy didn’t get to be on the call for it
He definitely enjoyed every moment besides being stabbed
My favorite player of all time..
I sure wish that Paul pierce would've played with the Celtics this season.. Smh he would be in the playoffs RN 😭😭😭 #TheTruth 🍀🍀
The truth!
U can't handle the truth..
Paul Pierce is the best clutch player,period!
la verdad ...pierce
PAUL PIERCE BOSTON CELTICS #34
We bleed green..
I'm surprised there's no Laker fans commented stuff like ''overrated'' and ''trash'' but fair play you ain't as stupid as you look and talk
this is moving shit
Was the crowd booing their own player? Lol
"Paul Pierce Highlights from last game at TD Garden (02/05/2017)", or, "How To Make a Grown Man Cry"
☘
The game still has 11 seconds and only has a 5 point margin, players of Clippers should foul to stop the clock instead of get immersed of Pierce's 3 point field goal. It may has the chance to get an overtime play.
Paul Pierce kiss the boston logo meanwhile kyrie stomp on face of that logo
Yeah
This is sad
Very touching moment! I hope WWE made me like that not as a Jobber to the Star! Arriba!
The truth
This happened the day the pats won too
yeah all the pats jerseys in the stands
😪
guy stayed threw all the years we never made the playoffs
Isaiah shouldn’t have guarded that three
Tanner S he didn’t dumbass..
They should have let the The Truth go off and shoot 50 shots like they let Kobe shoot
す、スゲーなぁ😢
5:50 :)
😁😀
