On September 3, Pierce, a Celtic Hall of Fame celebrity, has always been a famous "Jane Black". Recently, he predicted on a podcast program that James' new season will be the last season of his career, and also praised James for being GOAT for a long time, but his era is about to come to an end.

Pearce was one of the three Celtics in his player age, and led the team to win the championship in 2008 and won the MVP in the finals. Pierce met James on the playoffs many times during his time as a player, and blocked James many times, but he was eliminated by James many times at the end of his career.

In the past, Pierce has repeatedly come forward to criticize and belittle James, but now Pierce has given a different voice.

Pearce recently participated in a podcast show, when he talked about James' prediction of James' career, he said: "If I were to gamble, I think this would be the last season of James's career. You know, he has played 21 to 22 seasons (James is about to start his career 23rd season, surpassing Carter to rise to the first place in history). "

Pearce also further stated: "James has been GOAT for a long time, and he has always maintained excellent data. We are grateful for his contribution to the sport, and he has been carrying the banner of the NBA after he retired from Jordan. James is one of the NBA legends, and we are grateful for this, but I think his era is coming to an end, and we will always remember everything he did for the NBA."
