Pierce Celts' No. 2 scorer, passes Bird (AP)

Boston Celtics forward Paul Pierce (34) is congratulated by Kevin Garnett (5) after becoming the No. 2 all-time Celtics scorer, surpassing Larry Bird, during the second half of an NBA basketball game against the Charlotte Bobcats in Boston on Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012.  The Celtics won 94-84.

Paul Pierce knew what was on the line with every shot. The pressure was quite clear to Pierce and anyone else in the arena as he stood on the verge of passing Larry Bird for No. 2 on Boston's career scoring list. He needed only 10 points to overtake Bird when the Celtics hosted Charlotte on Tuesday night and those final three seemed as if they would never come.
