I told CShepRKO when Pierce was traded that
when he comes to the Garden and hits a step back jumper from the elbow it will
be one of the toughest things I will ever have to watch. And even though it
took him till the 3rd quarter to do it, he did it. The tribute
videos for both of them The Garden did were awesome. I know people complained
about the timing of it but whatever. The Garden erupted when they came out in
the introductions and obviously you got to respect the crowd for that. What I
don’t like is the crowd cheering him on when 20 seconds were left and he got
the ball to hit the half time buzzer beater. Don’t do that. You don’t ever want
to cheer for an opponent scoring on your team.

So onto the topic of retiring the numbers. I’m
not talking about Paul Pierce when I talk about this. Paul Pierce will
obviously get the 34 up into the rafters when he is done with the game. Before
the game started I would say Kevin Garnett doesn’t get the 5 up there. I would
say he should just get the 21 up in Minnesota and that’s it. But after seeing
the post game interview I am 100% on the bandwagon for him to retire his
number. It is one of the most bone chilling things I have ever heard.
We will still bleed green.
