Paul Pierce posts heartfelt message to thank fans after retiring on Twitter

Utah Jazz v Los Angeles Clippers - Game Seven

Paul Pierce called it quits on Sunday after playing in the NBA for 19 seasons.

Pierce, who won a title with the Celtics in 2008, spent the last two years with the Clippers, who suffered their perennial playoff exit even earlier this year than usual, losing to the Jazz in seven games.

But Pierce had more important things to think about after the loss than just the score. Like, for example, his career, which officially came to an end on Sunday. He later posted this message thanking fans for their support over the years.

“Teady” for a new chapter, you guys.
