<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Phil Jackson is not buying the whole Paul Pierce miraculous comeback story in Game 1, questioning the legitimacy of the severity of Pierce's pain, the New York Daily News is reporting. "Paul got carried off and was back on his feet in a minute," Jackson said. "I don't know if the angels visited him at halftime or in that timeout period that he had or not, but he didn't even limp when he came back out on the floor. I don't know what was going on there. Was (evangelist) Oral Roberts back there in their locker room?" Some are comparing Pierce's willingness to come back and inspire his team despite being hurt to that of Willis Reed 38 years ago, but Jackson is not one of them. Yesterday, Jackson reminded reporters that Reed needed injections to play after suffering a debilitating thigh injury in Game 5 that knocked him out of Game 6. "(Reed) literally had to have a shot, a horse shot, three or four of them in his thigh to come back out and play," Jackson said.</div> Source
