Former NBA star Paul Pierce's Los Angeles home was broken into by burglars, who reportedly stole jewelry and over $100,000 in cash on Friday night. The NBA Hall of Famer, 46, wasn't home when the property became the latest target of Los Angeles' burglary epidemic, according to TMZ. The thieves are said to have made off with luxury watches, over $100,000 in cash and a safe. Pierce, who is originally from Inglewood, California, is just the latest big-name resident of Los Angeles to fall victim to the string of burglaries.
The Los Angeles Lakers faced two critical games with playoff implications in recent days versus the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors, only to lose both contests. As a result, they find themselves in 10th place in the Western Conference, and their lead over the 11th-place Houston Rockets, which is currently at 3.5 games, isn't necessarily safe. LeBron James was strangely passive during the Sacramento game. On the other hand, he scored 40 points versus the Warriors.
The NBA GOAT discussion is one that has become more and more prevalent due to the continued success of LeBron James. While many folks believe it's a two-horse race between him and Michael Jordan, some players, such as Kevin Durant, believe they should be in the conversation as well. According to Paul Pierce, though, there's one big reason why Durant isn't included in the debate. Nobody is doubting Durant's skills, especially as he continues to play some of the best individual basketball of his career in his age 35 season with the Phoenix Suns.
