I honestly can't quite put a finger on it why I chose this video for the day... Maybe something happened recently that sparked it, but I can't say for sure.
Flash back to 2008 in the NBA finals between the Boston Celtics and the LA Lakers. Pierce is without a doubt the centerpiece of the Celtics team, with Allen and KG being brought in for their first run at a championship. Everything was going well throughout the game until Pierce collapsed in a heap halfway through the 3rd quarter while down 4. The "injury" was so bad, Pierce was not only carried off the court, but wheeled back to the locker room in a wheelchair.
In what could be nothing short of a miracle, Pierce comes walking back out onto the court 5 minutes later. Maybe he got a hold of some of Jordan's "secret stuff" (if you don't get that reference you should just go sit in the corner and think about your life decisions to this point). The Celtics went on to win the game convincingly, 98-88. Too bad something this amazing couldn't happen again in the finals this year...
