Fat Boy Pee Pee -- The Ultimate Faker

Don't say we didn't warn you. We did. Almost a month ago. We told you Paul Pierce was a Total Fraud. Great basketball player, yes. No denying that. But he is a person who always is trying to be something he's not. A Complete Phony.

Last night, in game one of the NBA Finals, it was on display for the world to see.

One minute he goes down after teammate Kendrick Perkins bumps into him. The next, he is writhing in pain on the floor. Then he is carried off the court by two scrubs named Allen and Scalabrine.

Then we see him in a wheelchair!

Less than 10 minutes (real time) later, he is back on the court hitting three pointers. Some idiot (hard to identify which one among the trio of ABC dunces) compares Pee Pee to Willis Reed!

Willis Freaking Reed?!?!?!?

Are you friggin kidding me?!?

There is not a doubt in our mind that he was faking it one-hundred-percent. What a tool.
Finally, after his Medical Miracle (I can walk!), in the post game press conference, Fat Boy made reference to angels helping him out of the wheel chair and back onto the court. We can only surmise that those same angels had no interest in helping Laker star Andrew Bynum come back from a knee injury this year.

No Lie: If Pierce got traded to the Your Our 76ers today, we would stop cheering for them. Immediately.

By the way, just so you don't think hatred for Fat Boy Pee Pee is clouding our judgement, Bill Platschke agrees with us. And...So does Jeff Goodwin.

Randoms:

*Did referee Dick Bavetta get any calls correct last night?

*Unless the Lakers do a better job on the boards, this series will be short. Very short.

*The Lakers can hang their hat on the fact they were in the game till the very end despite getting nothing from Kobe. He (as well as many of is teammates) had several shots go "half-way down" before rimming out.
k
*We'll say it again: If KG stayed in the post the entire game, he would be an automatic 30 points per game player.
