Celtics: Paul Pierce drops truth bomb on controversial video that led to ESPN firing

  Celtics: Paul Pierce drops truth bomb on controversial video that led to ESPN firing ESPN  fired  Paul Pierce  from the network back in 2021 after he posted a controversial video on social media. Since then, it's been a heavily talked about topic whenever the former  Boston Celtics star ‘s name is brought up in conversation. Now, Pierce drops a truth bomb on what led him to share that video. Pierce dropped a tell-all video on the  All the Smoke Podcast   and the first topic  of discussion was the video that led to his firing from ESPN. The former Celtics star claims he didn't know that people can record an Instagram Live video . “I'm enjoying retirement. It's poker night… And I decided to pull my phone out… I was caught in the moment… I didn't post it… [I didn't know] that you can record it.” It was just a total blunder from Paul Pierce. Not everyone is tech savvy. To be fair, sometimes when people have a fun evening like that, they tend to make bad decisions

NBA 2K24 MyTEAM Wild West Features 100 OVR Shaq & More

 

NBA 2K24 MyTEAM Wild West Features 100 OVR Shaq & More


The NBA 2K24 Wild West MyTeam event features another 100 OVR player item in the form of Shaq. Since introducing a 100 OVR Kareem Abdul Jabbar one week ago, 2K24 seems to be continuing the trend of creating even more insane player items. And what better way to continue the trend by adding a player who was a 100 OVR in a 2K game long ago. Without further ado, let's dive into the details.

The 100 OVR Shaq player item in NBA 2K24 MyTEAM can be unlocked in special inserts in Wild West Packs & Boxes. For longtime 2K fans, you might remember Shaq's 100 OVR rating in NBA 2K2, which released back in 2001.

 At that point in time, Shaq was still playing, having already earned multiple All-Star nods and more. Over time, he went on to become a 4-time NBA Champion, with three Finals MVP awards.

Overall, the Wild West Special Inserts include:

  • 100 Overall Shaquille O'Neal
  • Galaxy Opal Kobe Bryant
  • Galaxy Opal David Robinson
  • Galaxy Opal Rashard Lewis
  • Galaxy Opal Shawn Marion
  • Galaxy Opal Jalen Green

Overall, there's not much to say about Shaq that hasn't already been said. He's one of the greatest to ever do it. His time in L.A. on the Lakers, alongside 2K24 cover athlete Kobe Bryant, led to multiple successful years for the franchise. Overall, his career, which spanned for almost two decades, was full of exciting moments.


Furthermore, collect all the cards below for the Wild West Collection Reward – a Galaxy Opal Wild West Player Card.

  • Pink Diamond Baron Davis
  • Pink Diamond Michael Finley
  • Pink Diamond Gordon Hayward
  • Pink Diamond LaMarcus Aldridge
  • Diamond Vlade Divac
  • Diamond Marcus Smart
  • Diamond Marcus Camby
  • Amethyst Terry Cummings
  • Amethyst Jose Alvarado
  • Amethyst Leonard Miller

Overall, that includes everything you need to know about the NBA 2K24 Wild West MyTEAM event. If you already unlocked the 100 OVR Kareem Abdul-Jabbar item, then this just makes for another nasty edition to your MyTEAM. Despite just a one point difference in rating, 100 OVR players are without a doubt the best in the game. We look forward to seeing if 2K continues this trend in future events.

  Paul Pierce doubles down on 2008 'best player' declaration over Kobe Bryant Paul Pierce is not backing down on his take that his 2008 NBA Finals win over Kobe and him being named Finals MVP made him the best player in the world.  Following the 2008 NBA Finals, he was asked by a Spanish publication if Kobe was the best player in the world, he confidently claimed the title of the world's best player and then stated, “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.” He then was asked to clarify his comments by media at his youth basketball camp at the time and doubled down, saying, “That’s what I said. I am a confident player and a lot of people might look at it like ‘Oh, another cocky attitude,’ but I don’t look at it that way. I have an opinion, I have a right to have one and that’s the way I feel. I felt I’ve played against the best over the years and felt right now tha
