Best Answer

Shaquille O'Neal came up with the nickname after Pierce scored 42 points in a 112-107 Boston Celtics loss to O'Neal's Los Angeles Lakers in 2001. After the game, O'Neal told a Boston Herald reporter: "Paul Pierce is the [expletive deleted] truth. Quote me on that, and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."
