Paul Pierce is not one to act shy about his worth in the NBA, whether when he was still active or after retirement.
The latest from "The Truth" has many Miami Heat fans feeling angry, in disbelief, or just laughing their hearts out after he claimed he is better than Heat legend Dwyane Wade.
Add Udonis Haslem to those who are tired of such take.

What did Pierce say; is it warranted?
Pierce's take is just a double down of the same thing he said in 2019. He really believes he is better than Wade.
He thinks Wade gets more props because the Heat legend played with more superstars, wherein he played Robin to another's Batman.
"For a long time, my skills went unappreciated because I didn't get to play with a lot of great players," Pierce explained. "And then I got to play with KG and Ray [Allen] past their prime. Four years earlier, you put me, Ray, and KG together, you think we ain't walking away with three 'ships?"
He said the same thing four years ago, enumerating the Hall of Fame members Wade has played with. He claimed he would've won more if he had another superstar on the court.
"When I was 25, give me LeBron ... I'd be sitting on five or six championships, easy. I played 10 years with who? With who?"
