Celtics #17: The truth about The Truth

If anyone has earned this championship, it's Paul Pierce. He was the most consistent player on the team all year and busted his behind all playoffs long. Yea, he had a few duds, but when it was time to step up he did it. Just think where we were last year. Was Paul even going to be on the team? Where would he be traded to? Who would we get in return?

It's such a great story, one that will be woven into the fabric that will make-up the #17 banner that's to be hung in the rafters.

As they say, what a difference a year makes. Let's hope that this time next year, we're doing it all over again. Die hard C's fans would love nothing better than to see more pictures like this in the coming years:
