Paul Pierce channels inner-Russell Westbrook
Following Washington’s 99-90 victory over the Brooklyn Nets, Paul Pierce channeled his inner-Russell Westbrook.
Pierce mocked Westbrook’s infamous ‘execution’ interview, responding to every media question with, “We executed.”
From the archive. This was filed on 18 January 2015, and it is short because it was short then: a note put up while a story was still moving, not a piece written to be read years afterwards. It is kept at the address it went up at, in the wording it went up in.
Filed to Nets. Anything that followed from this — and with a story of this kind something usually did — was filed to the same desk, which is why the desk reads better than the note.
The 2014-15 season contributed 95 pieces to the desk, and this is one of them. The archive is arranged by season, so the whole of that run can be read in the order it was filed.
The alternative to keeping it would be a redirect, and a redirect is a way of telling a reader that what they looked for has been tidied away. Nothing has been tidied away here: the note is thin, it is dated, and it is where it always was.
