The Celtics started out the season with Paul Pierce crying, then torching the Cavs with 27 points in a 90-85 win on Tuesday night. Boston started off sluggish after their ring ceremony but came alive in the 3rd quarter outscoring Cleveland 24-13. Pierce took it to LeBron once again. Most people talk about LeBron being the best player in the league...but how come Pierce always has his way with him? I'm not going to consider LeBron to be better than Pierce until he starts making some free throws (4 for 8) or an outside jump shot (0 for 4 from 3 point range). LeBron had 22 points but they were mostly dunks and layups. If you watch SportsCenter you'd think James had a great game with a few dunks but if you watched the game you know better. Rondo had the 2nd best stat online on the Celtics with 14 points, 6 assists, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals in only 30 minutes.
