Paul Pierce is refusing to read Ray Allen‘s best-selling book, From the Outside, in which Allen writes that Pierce chose to take nights off against non-elite players.
While guesting on the I AM RAPAPORT: STEREO PODCAST, Chauncey Billups said that Pierce made the decision to not pay attention to the negativity in Allen’s book.
“[Ray and Celtics] had a great thing going,” Pierce told Billups. “We won a chip together. I’m on that. I don’t want this negativity.”

“I was talking to Paul about [Allen’s book] just yesterday and some of that stuff.
“He was like, ‘Man, I’m not reading that book. We had a great thing going. We won a chip together. I’m on that. I don’t want this negativity.’”
