Paul Pierce Introduced at TD Garden for Final Time, Kisses Celtics Logo

In his final game at TD Garden on Sunday, Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul Pierce got the starting nod from head coach Doc Rivers.

The Boston Celtics faithful loved it.

Pierce was showered with cheers during introductions and received a standing ovation following a video celebrating his Boston years, which featured 10 All-Star appearances and a title in 2008:
