i mean i cant even name pierces top 5 teammates before the big 3 so he has a point

Neither Heat Shaq was Lakers Shaq nor Heatles Wade was 2006-09 Wade. Pierce was great but now he’s such a bum.

Lol.
Only thing pierce has on wade is distance on his jumper. Had wade been able to shoot even about 33% on threes he would have been a much higher ranked player.

Paul Pierce wishes he was Dwayne Wade, GTFOH
When was Pierce ever considered even a top 3 nba player?
There is a huge difference between being really good and being all-time great

I’m not saying he’s better than Wade, because he’s not but cmon guys.
You’re saying if LeBron and Bosh joined him all in their primes, he wouldn’t have more chips?

He had KG ray allen and rando with a great bench for more then 4 years, it wasn’t late in his career since he retired in 2016, and they formed around 2007.
THEY ONLY won 1 CHIP

Pierce and 06 Shaq don’t win shit lmao
sheeeeeez
I can’t explain it but watching Pierce majority of his career, he was always way better than his stats imo. He didn’t get nervous or was afraid of competition.

It’s kind of sad that these guys have nothing better to do than have these “who’s better than whom” conversations.
larrylegend1990
We don’t love you like that. It is what it is.
I can’t say hes wrong to think that way. Him with Lebron and Bosh would win at least one ring.

Didn’t Jalen Rose shit on this take live on ESPN?

All I’m confident about is Paul has seen more escorts than D-Wade.

As in the same Shaq who averaged 14 ppg in the 06 Finals?

I agree with him, I agree with everything he said.

NBA subreddit underrates Paul Pierce so hard lmao

This man gassed up his only ring for one season more that I see Wade talk about his three rings

Truth.

I don’t think anything he says here is false necessarily

Why did camron say pause on “amazing skillset”. Definition of homophobia lol constantly afraid to SOUND gay

“HE ONLY HAS 1 CHIP WITH KG AND RAY”
Yeah cause KG got fucking injured in year 2 so they couldn’t even defend their title and to the fact all were in their 30’s and past their prime after the first 2 seasons together. But this doesn’t surprise me that people view this way about the Celtics big 3 and not realizing they came together at an older age and dealt with injury. Half of r/nba probably started watching basketball 10 years or less.
Wade literally had Shaq in year 2 and then prime Lebron and prime Bosh for a good stretch.
So yeah, this isn’t a false statement that Pierce could’ve potentially won 3 championships too.
But Wade at his best and prime albeit shorter, was a better player than Pierce and Pierce is my favorite player ever.

Serious question. Why is wade considered that much better than pierce?

I know someone will pull some different era stats, but Pierce was really fucking good.
TheCoon2100
This dude is constantly talking about Wade. However, Wade doesn’t even remember this guy exists. Hilarious

Paul Pierce has regressed back to 2018, someone needs bring him back to reality again
Rocwondachef
Waiting for Paul to ask who is a better defender. Also waiting for him to ask who is a better passer. Come on Paul.

Paul Pierce catching a lot of hate for this but lets not pretend he’s not a hall of famer. They both are I actually feel they’re pretty close
SensitiveRocketsFan
Didn’t this dude have KG and Allen? Wah wah
Ok-You-874
2006 Mavericks got fucked by the referees. You couldn’t get near Wade without being called for a foul. So scratch 2006 title, everything else Pierce says is the Truth. Had he had Shaq, Lebron, or Bosh in his prime, he’s probably sitting with 3 or 4 rings. Arguably Paul Pierce is a better fit next LeBron than Dwyane Wade.

This take is like his wheel chair incident. 💩

Nope… Wade was better, no question. Pierce was really, really good…Wade was just better.
I mean yeah i think Paul+LBJ+Bosh could win at least one title. But if we’re trying to compare Pierce to Wade wouldn’t the question be more like: could Pierce+LBJ+Bosh beat Wade+LBJ+Bosh? Personally I don’t think so but there’s definitely room for debate.

I mean, you put me on a team with LeBron and Bosh and I have a chance, too.

Performance in the playoffs… Wade.
