Gloria sprang into action and gave Pierce an earful

[Adam Patterson]

I could add something to Ken's post... but I won't...
 
...because the Boston fans have pretty much said it all...

A great moment in basketball entertainment. As was Lebron's discussion of it after the game.

I must say, Lebron has absolutely impressed me as a mature, thoughtful, respectful athlete. His postgame talks, especially after the games his team lost, have been amazingly poised. It's unbelievable that he's just 23.

I don't like his whining to get flagrant foul calls (imagine what he'd do if he lost his teeth, like Pierce did!), but otherwise I really respect him.
