We all know what Lebron James told his mom when Paul and Lebron stumbled out of bounds, near where Gloria James was seated. Gloria sprang into action and gave Pierce an earful, wagging her finger at him.
“I told her to sit down with some language I shouldn’t have used. Thank God today wasn’t Mother’s Day.
“Even though that’s my mother, the commissioner doesn’t care if it’s your mother or your kids or anybody. You can’t allow fans and players to get involved like that. And I can’t afford for my mom not to be at every last one of my games.”
So what did Gloria say to Paul Pierce?
“I really don’t know,” Pierce said. “She was just coming to her son; that’s how moms are when they see something happening to their kids. My mom probably would’ve done the same thing.”
“LeBron had her under control, though,” Pierce said.
