Today, June 5th, 2017 is the ninth anniversary of one of the most iconic moments of Paul Pierce's illustrious career - what some have called the "Wheelchair Game".
This was, of course, Game One of the 2008 finals against the Los Angeles Lakers, which saw Boston get into it as they usually do when playing their arch rivals on the biggest of stages - namely, chippy. In the heat of it all, Pierce - just starting to heat up on offense - collided with Kendrick Perkins on the other end of the court as he tried to stop Kobe Bryant from scoring.
