The Truth Breaks Out
Date: February 13, 2002
Paul Pierce’s 30 points weren’t enough for the Celtics to overcome the Golden State Warriors on the road, 92-75. The 2001-02 season was Pierce’s breakout year as he averaged more than 26 points per game – the second-highest average of his NBA career – made his first NBA All-Star team and led the Celtics to the Eastern Conference Finals.
