16 years ago, while Paul Pierce was still a Boston Celtic, he was stabbed in the face, neck and back 11 times at a nightclub. He also had a bottle smashed over his head. Despite injuries that required him to under lung surgery, Pierce did not miss a single game that season.
To make light of the dark incident on Pierce’s first return to the Boston Garden this season, his teammates staged a re-enactment of the stabbing during the player introductions. Pierce clearly loves it, and is laughing the whole time.
The accusers were reportedly associated with Boston rap group Made Men. One of Made Men’s members, Benzino, has gone on to star in the reality show “Marriage Boot Camp.”
