Impact: Pierce also chipped in six rebounds, two steals, two blocks, and one assist, versus three turnovers, in 42 minutes of run. Friday marked the first time in six tilts that he managed to shoot better than 50 percent on his field goals, a sign that he is finding some comfort with his sprained MCL.

News: Pierce (left knee) was wearing a brace during Friday's shootaround, but said he has no plans to play with it Friday against the 76ers, A. Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com reports. Impact: The Truth put on a show during Wednesday's win, and finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds. After logging 36 minutes in that game, the 34-year-old was likely wearing the knee brace as a precaution.

Impact: Pierce didn't shoot particularly well, making just 6-of-17 from the floor, which could be a product of his ailing knee, but was able to throw down two thunderous dunks to help set an early aggressive tone for Boston.
