Paul Pierce sprains ankle

In the game I still have yet to see (job interference), Paul Pierce sprained his ankle following a late-game breakaway dunk. (ESPN Boston)

Celtics coach Doc Rivers told reporters that Pierce sprained his ankle, but joked that the late-game injury is an old veteran’s trick for getting out of practice. “I told him we play tomorrow, so he’ll be OK,” quipped Rivers. Boston plays the Minnesota Timberwolves in the tail end of a back-to-back Monday at the TD Garden.

One of these days, the Celtics will start getting healthy.

On second thought, maybe not.

    Nick Paar would never think about making money off the Celtics. To him, its about watching the Celtics. Rooting for the Celtics on the radio. Reading the box scores in the Sunday Republican. He was upset about the Garnett trade because he LOVED Big Al. He trusted Rondo when he was backing up Telfair. He has a Dino Radja signed jersey.

    These are things you cannot understand. That is why you never were LHS’ “Biggest Celtics Fan” of 2005, and you never will be LHS’ “Biggest Celtics Fan” of 2005. Get over it, because it isn’t going away.
