At first I thought this was something harmless... until people saw this video and said in the comments that Paul Pierce threw a gang sign at Al Horford after the rookie's crazy, taunting outburst.
My first inclination is to say no way.... but.... I don't really know about these things. Remember... I'm a blogger... I'm in my mom's basement. Please don't kill me.

Al Horford Will Regret This
redsarmy.wordpress.com 4/27/2008 —
I did hear that Paul Pierce had to be restrained after this little incident… which is probably a good thing. That means Paul can play on Monday and turn Al into a poster. Nuts on that Sundae Mr. Horford?
Congratulations Atlanta… ...

Odenized video clip on YouTube | High Quality | Download The Atlanta Hawks sure know how to motivate their opponents. Rookie Al Horford taunts a fallen Paul Pierce during the final minute of a Hawks victory in Phillips Arena.
Thanks, A-Ho
tommypoint.com 4/27/2008 — If someone had just tuned into the game last night during the final few minutes, they'd have thought the Hawks had just knocked the Celtics out of the playoffs. Granted, it was a nice win for a team as young as the Hawks are, but the celebrating at the end was borderline ridiculous. On top of that, Al Horford proved his youth and inexperience by taunting Paul Pierce (and why there wasn't a technic
On Horford, Pierce and Macho Posturing Nonsense
celticsblog.com 4/28/2008 — In retrospect, I don't even know what set me off. It's two days later, and I can't remember for the life of me. Maybe it was the fact that the boys in green were losing, which meant I was frustrated.
OK Atlanta, Dial 9-1 Now…
redsarmy.wordpress.com 4/28/2008 —
And then 1 again sometime in the second quarter… when Al Horford is in the fetal position and Pierce is running back on D shaking his head and blowing on his fingers, gunslinger style.
You can see the look in the Celtics eyes. ...

Al Horford Must Still Think He’s At Florida —
Tirico Suave
I know he’s a rookie and this was at the end of a big upset, but this taunt from Al Horford, directed at Paul Pierce of all people, seems to be a little much, considering the Hawks finished 29 games behind the Celtics and are still down 2-1 in the series. Credit to Odenized for [...]
Will Paul Pierce Get Revenge on Al Horford? —
The Big Lead
In case you missed it Saturday night, Atlanta rookie Al Horford went sort of ballistic on Boston’s Paul Pierce after making a late basket in the Hawks’ 102-93 upset. The only thing we can imagine that would have set Horford off: “Hey Al, I saw your little brother rapping on the internet . Weak.”
Al Horford fucking with Paul Pierce, not a good idea —
Hail Mary Jane
Al Horford taunted a fallen Paul Pierce during the final minute of a Hawks win over the Celtics on Saturday night.
You can’t really call it a rookie mistake just yet because Paul Pierce hasn’t made him pay yet but I’m willing to bet money that he will.

Why is Al Horford So Mad at Paul Pierce? —
FanHouse
Via Odenized , from the final minute of Atlanta's shocking wi n over Boston. Keep your eye out for the large man screaming at the fellow laying on the ground at about the 16-second mark. Al Horford is not normally considered a fire-branding red-ass, so the verbal explosion is a bit of a shock. Did Paul Pierce do something to upset Al? No, not really. Horford tells Sekou Smith of the ...

HAWKS BEAT CELTICS! The Atlanta Hawks beat the Boston Celtics 102-93, but trail in the series 2-1. This game wasn't really close in the fourth, the Hawks lead by double digits for most of it. Something to look at in game four will be Paul Pierce and Al Horford. Horford had some words for him after he gambled on a steal unsuccessfully. You know they're going to come out with heat in the next ...
Nice Try —
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans
The Hawks came out swinging tonight, but still got their asses kicked - 96-77. Josh Smith tried to set the tone early by nearly breaking Paul Pierce’s back with a hard foul in the first quarter. Joe Johnson and Al Horford also played chippy all night. But in the end, the Celtics dominated this game on every front. Big-mouth Bibby was a non-factor yet again - 12 pts (2-7 FG) and 1 ...
Ainge to Stern: That Wasn't a Gang Sign, Silly! —
FanHouse
As reported yesterday, Paul Pierce was fined $25,000 for making a "menacing gesture" at the end of the Sunday's Game 3 loss. It was unclear at the time what the gesture meant, but it certainly resembled some kind of gang-sign, which is probably why the NBA decided to crack down. (Decide for yourself: it's around the 30 second mark of this video .) After hearing about the fine, though, the ...

Here is the video of the play that Aaron wrote about last night. The last thing I want to comment on before I go stew in my anger is Al Horford. Rookie needs to get slapped up. If you didn't watch the game, with just around a minute left Pierce was guarding Horford while Atlanta was just running down the clock. I didn't see how it happened, but Pierce slipped (tripped?) and ...

No one expected this series to go to a fifth game, and certainly no one expected it to go a sixth game.

The heat was on early in this game after all the trash talking and other disputes between the two teams in the past few games. Four ...

New England Sports Blog
After last night's trash talking between Paul Pierce and Al Horford one could have expected a dogfight in tonight's game four in Atlanta but aside from some minor physical exchanges it was the Hawks who played simply solid basketball. There were no flagrant fouls which also surprised me. The Celtics are in need of some home cooking after losing to the Hawks 97-92 in Atlanta. The Celtics ...

Paul Pierce and DeShawn Stevenson became $25,000 poorer yesterday. Stevenson because, well, he’s Stevenson; and the League says that Paul made a “ menacing ” gesture towards the Hawks after Al Horford taunted him towards the end of Game 3.
The incident occurred during a timeout with 22.2 seconds left in the fourth quarter as Pierce walked near the ...

This sign… the nature of which is up for debate… cost Paul Pierce $25,000 .
So what was it? The folks over at Comcast Sports Net report that its a sign for “blood, sweat and tears” . And really… I wish I could believe them… but does anyone think that in that context, Pierce wants to relay the message “blood sweat and tears” after ...
