Paul Pierce: The Best Player in the World?
Posted by cebloggerJul 30
PAUL PIERCE, who?
Finals MVP Paul Pierce, who recently spent three days at a ball camp in Madrid, is making, ahem, news about what he said to a Spanish reporter. The money translation, via RedsArmy: “Q: Is Kobe really the best player in the world? Pierce: I don’t think Kobe is the best player. I’m the best player. There’s a line that separates having confidence and being conceited. I don’t cross that line but I have a lot of confidence in myself.” Surprisingly, Spurs fans seem more upset by this than actual Lakers fans.

I know Kobe, but Paul Pierce is someone new to me. A succinct “No” reply would have sufficed. The “best player in the world” statement is over-conceited and exaggerated. So what if he won the NBA Finals MVP? I even think that Lebron James is much better a person and a player.
Paul Pierce should better do good in the Olympics and in the next NBA Season.
