Pierce says he has strained Achilles' injury
Paul Pierce - G/F - Boston Celtics
May 4, 2011 - 2:00 AM ET

Paul Pierce told media after Tuesday's loss that he is dealing with a strained left Achilles' injury and called himself "day-to-day."

"I'm day to day right now," said Pierce. "We'll see how I feel the next couple days." Pierce can thank the schedule makers for deciding Game 3 should be on Saturday, giving him nearly four days rest from tonight's final buzzer to tip-off. And given Pierce's history of theatrics, to say we're skeptical about how hurt he is would be an understatement.
