Are Lakers fans hating on Paul Pierce because they're upset that their team got crushed by the Celtics?

Question

so what if he faked a knee injury? at least it's not as bad as Kobe getting in trouble with rape allegations (i'm not saying he's guilty, but still....)

Answer 1

You are a Boston Fan,

And I bet you even think he isn't the best in the world!

Answer 2

they hide their sadness by making fun of pierce. whatever, 2nd place is nothing

Answer 3

I'm not a Lakers fan, but Paul Pierce was too over confident by stating that he was the best player in the world.

Nooo wayyy. This guy isn't even close to LeBron or T-mac for a matter of fact.

Answer 4

Hahaha I love how people still play the Kobe rape allegation thing. That was 2003. People need to get over it.

Ok so to answer your question. I'm a Lakers fan, and I knew the Lakers would lose this series. This was the Celtics season. I do think the refs blew alot of calls in game 1 and 2 that might've cost the Lakers those games, but thats a different story. The Celtics deserved it. Am I happy they won? No. But its not a big deal to me anymore. 2009 is the year of the Lakers.

Answer 5

I am a laker hater, i found it to be extremely comical to see the Celtics kick booty in the finals, the lakers had bullied,threw fits,and sucked azz to the refs all season, so it was a great treat to watch them destruct.  The saying goes...... Hey LAKERS and LAKER FANS, Would you like a pacifier to go with that fit?

Answer 6

Pierce should just shut up. Congrats you won a title, now pleace shut your mouth and go away until the next season starts.

If i were a Laker fan, i would be happy in knowning that i have the best player in the NBA on my team and that the LA Lakers time will be here again soon enough.

Answer 7

Perhaps... if you are going to make such a claim... you shouldn't "drama queen" up the finals and fake an injury and be carried off the court like that only to return as what???  Some super hero?  Please... the respect I did have for Pierce dwindled in that moment.  The Kobe thing was "off court" and if you don;t think that garbage is rampant through the NBA you live in a cave.  Kobe leaves it ALL out on the floor.  That is what the best player in the world does.  Pierce is a drama queen who had a great supporting cast in a WEAK division.  Lets see them play through the west and be that fresh for the playoffs.  

Like the other guy said.  I think Boston was perhaps the most talented team and did deserve the win.  Remember though... we had no Bynum and a whole game 2 that was clearly against LA.  New year... Lakers will be back in the finals... will Boston?

Answer 8

Yes they feel crushed when they lost to the Celtics. I bet a couple of Laker fans wanted commit suicide after the got killed in game 6.
