Paul Pierce is all about the Truth, and apparently being drunk on live television.
Previously reported, Paul Pierce’s recent dismissal from ESPN was not a one-time occurrence. He appears to be dedicated to indulging in rowdy events frequently. He has a habit of enforcing his wild behavior on any surroundings he finds himself in.
This was exemplified during a recent NBA Finals live stream with his former co-star Kevin Garnett. During the live stream, Pierce found it nearly impossible to stay focused on the game. Instead, he became preoccupied with other distractions. Throughout the 2 hours and 39 minutes of streaming, viewers were given a glimpse into what it’s like to hang out with Pierce.

Paul Pierce Has No Interest in the Game
It was comically similar to being trapped on a couch with a drunk friend who can’t stop interrupting.
The stream provides ongoing moments of Pierce asking Garnett if they should “call some girls up.” He also gets extremely agitated when he was unable to show off his jewelry to the camera.
By the third quarter, Pierce is barely responsive, chewing on a cigar, staring into space, and asking if he can light his cigar inside. Pierce concludes the evening, livestreaming from his own phone, discussing which casino he will visit following the game.
Garnett appears to be incredibly frustrated throughout the broadcast. Yet he perseveres in his efforts to offer analysis and repeatedly direct Pierce’s attention back to the game. Garnett even impresses himself with the night’s best comedic timing by interrupting Pierce’s live stream to ask, “What’s your adjustments for Game 4 if you’re Miami?”
In the end, Pierce was released from ESPN, but the wild and rowdy night with Garnett was a memorable one.
