  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 mak...

Stephen Curry's instant reaction after beating Sabrina Ionescu in 3-Point challenge


For the first time, an NBA and WNBA star went toe to toe at All-Star Weekend as Golden State Warriors sharpshooter Stephen Curry battled New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu in a 3-point contest. It was a hotly contested affair too, with Curry barely beating Ionescu in the end, 29-26.

After the event, Curry was vocal about doing something similar every year. Via ClutchPoints:

“I don't know if anybody can fill these shoes, but it might have to be something that we do more often.”

This all came together after Ionescu shattered Curry's record of 31 points in the contest when she put up 37 in the WNBA edition last season, which resulted in the two agreeing to make this happen in Indianapolis. Stephen Curry was awarded a championship belt with goats all over it, which makes sense because he is the GOAT shooter.

Interestingly enough, next year's All-Star festivities are in San Francisco and Ionescu happens to call the Bay Area home. That sounds like the perfect opportunity for Stephen Curry to invite Ionescu for another 3-point challenge. The Dubs superstar had to play catch up on Saturday evening, draining nine of his last 10 triples to rally for the win.

Ionescu meanwhile started out 7 for 7 and was 18 for 27 overall, with some worth one point and others worth two. To be honest, it was one of the most entertaining events of Saturday's festivities, with the Dunk Contest and the Skills Challenge disappointing. Fans seemed to be pretty into watching Curry and Ionescu chucking up treys.
