Former NBA All-Star Paul Pierce is back at again. 

Pierce, who is one of the Miami Heat's biggest agitators, showed his form during an appearance on the "It Is What It Is" podcast hosted by Ma$e and Cam'Ron. For a second time, he said he was a better player Heat legend Dywane Wade.  

 “Put Shaq on my team, put LeBron and Bosh with me. I’m not going to win one?”You do't think? ... We not going to win a couple?" 

Pierce was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2021 while Wade is set to join next month. Wade won three championships compared to Pierce's one with the Boston Celtics in 2008. 

Wade also has better stats across the board except rebounding. 

"Who's the better 3-point shooter," Pierce asked. "Is he a better scorer? He averaged more points than me in my career. I can shoot the 3. I can mid-range. I can post up. I can get to the line. I'm a better scorer."
