The Truth was a late-night guest last night (he brought the MVP trophy with him), and the link to the live video has just been posted on the show's Web site. You can find it here.

The conversation topics included:

-Why Conan would make a good Celtics mascot

-Where the nickname "The Truth" came from (Shaquille O'Neal)

-Why the Celtics were the last team Pierce ever wanted to play for

-Mixing it up with LeBron James' mom

-Getting pantsed by Ron Artest

-Why he doused Doc Rivers with Gatorade ("At the time, I just decided to dump out all the Gatorade, because I was drinking the Powerade anyway.")

-He can't put down the MVP trophy: "I went out to L.A. and I took it out to eat, took it to the club, I took it to the pool ... this has been everywhere."

-Throwing out his wild first pitch at Fenway: "They told me when you get out there, throw it high and hard ... I got it there."
