In a recent FS1 sports talk episode, Paul Pierce expressed unwavering confidence in the Boston Celtics winning Game 2 against the New York Knicks. He even guaranteed their victory, promising to walk barefoot to work in a robe if they lost. The Celtics initially led by 20 points but ultimately suffered a fourth-quarter collapse, resulting in a bitter 91-90 loss, making them down 0-2 in the series. True to his word, Pierce later shared a video on Instagram showing him walking to work in his robe after the loss, highlighting the humorous fallout from his bold predictions.
