Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on October 13, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Paul Pierce! You're the only guy who can make a wheelchair exit look legendary and still come back to dominate the court. Your clutch shots and fearless attitude made every Celtics game unforgettable—especially that 2008 NBA Finals MVP performance. Honestly, we're still debating if your jump shot or your trash talk was more impressive.

Now retired but forever iconic, you've transitioned from NBA star to basketball analyst with ease (and plenty of humor). May your birthday be filled with as much joy as you gave Boston fans—and fewer dramatic exits than Game 1 in '08!
