Paul Pierce doesn't have to worry about getting ready for a new season anytime soon. Instead, of training camp, the Celtics' star showed up on the set of Extra TV to play some pick-up with Medford, Mass., native and host Maria Menounos.

Menounos makes it no secret who she roots for, even as she lives and works in Los Angeles, surrounded everywhere by Lakers fans. She even made the trip back to Boston when the C's and Lakers squared off in the 2010 NBA Finals.

The footage of the battle was to appear on Extra TV on Tuesday.
