Paul Pierce?

The second most exciting player of the game wasn’t Chris Paul (5 points, 7 assists) J.J. (16 points) or even DeAndre Jordan (13 points, 17 rebounds). It was 39 year old Paul Pierce. While playing some unexpected minutes during the second quarter, Pierce held his own, playing some fairly well defense and contributing on the offensive end.

Paul ended up putting up 7 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists and went 3 for 3 from the field all in 14 minutes. Will this lead to more Paul Pierce playing time in the future? Probably not, but it was fun while it lasted.
