Paul Pierce schools Fab Melo in a 1 on 1 game.

It's not everyday that we get a glimpse into NBA practices, so it is always a treat when members of the media releases a clip of what goes on behind the scenes.


What you have just witnessed is Celtics rookie, Fab Melo, a 7 foot back up center get schooled in the post by a much smaller 6 foot 7, Paul Pierce. In theory this should not happen, but Pierce has one of best foot work in the league and to see a center, whose sole offensive responsibility should be mastering low post moves, it is kind of embarrassing. Hopefully, Pierce can spare him a lesson or two, dude seriously needs some help. I mean he did get a concussion after hitting his head on a door. Help on any level will be beneficial.

Fab Melo suffered a concusssion after hitting his head against a door.


Yea, you read the title right, this actually happened. The Brazilian rookie of the Boston Celtics took a hit from a hinge of a hotel double door way to his head yesterday and got a concussion. Definitely not the best way to get into the news, after dominating in his D-League games.

I guess being tall does have it's negatives.


On a unrelated note, he did do something like this in his rookie photo shoot. (Via: @cjzero)
