Pierce bet that he'd walk from his home to the local studios of his "Speak" show broadcasting gig for Fox in a bathrobe, a walk of close to 20 miles.

The Celtics were well on their way to taking care of business in Game 2 as they led by 20 points in the third quarter, but things went downhill fast. The Knicks ended the game on a 23-6 run and walked away with a win after Jalen Brunson hit a pair of clutch free throws.

Paul Pierce, I have to give you credit. Just an hour before publishing this post, I wrote about how the Hall of Famer's on-air bet on FS1's Speak completely backfired -- he was so certain the Boston Celtics would beat the New York Knicks in Game 2 on Wednesday that he said he'd walk 15 miles from home to work in his robe if they didn't.
