Pierce tweaks foot, unimpressive in loss
Paul Pierce - G/F - Boston Celtics
May 3, 2011 - 10:45 PM ET

Paul Pierce tweaked his foot and briefly left Tuesday's Game 2 loss, and finished with 13 points on 5-of-11 shooting (including a three) with five rebounds and one assist in 32.5 minutes.

He wasn't horrible, but he and his teammates are clearly having trouble stopping the penetration of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade on defense, and they're not making them pay on the other end, either. Pierce's foot injury isn't helping matters, but it would be shocking if it stopped him from playing in Game 3.
