... for sticking it out here for 10 years, playing for some pretty bad teams... showing some frustration at times but generally remaining a professional team player...

... never getting the respect he deserved as a player, getting passed over for the all star team because he played for such a bad team....

Coming into the playoffs in the shadow of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant (even Kevin Garnett) - and completely outplaying them all on both sides of the court...

This is a sweet and well deserved Championship for him - and one he can proudly say that he really sucked it up and played the consumate role that a team captain should.

They might as well retire his number tonight as well, as far as I'm concerned.

Congratulations to all the Celtics - but especially Paul Pierce!

Thanks for bringing #17 back to Boston (and preserving Red's record too!)

Hear hear. Of all the guys, I'm most happy for PP.

Definitely love Pierce. Despite being upset at times he remained loyal to the Celtics and never left and he really deserved this as much as anyone. I feel almost as happy for both KG and Ray. Very happy for them too.

Me too. I was rooting for him to be named MVP too, much as I think Ray Allen and PG were almost as deserving, I wanted Paul because he has been here through all the bad years. Talk about paying dues... and I knew if he was named MVP it would cinch putting his number in the rafters - which he totally deserves.

I'll say this, Pierce has to be the happiest man in Boston, without a doubt.

Pierce is an extremely underated player in the NBA. He's got the whole game. Good for him

What the hell are you talking about? - Didn't Pierce play in 6 All-Star games of his 10 year career? - pretty good amount of times in that game if you ask me

The Celtics won this championship Pats style and I could not be happier for Paul Pierce. He deserves it for all the crap he has been through.

Congrats Paul!
