Raptors trolled by Paul Pierce following sweep
Wizards forward gloats on social media
Washington Wizards forward Paul Pierce is really good at basketball and he is also really, really good at getting under the skin of the Toronto Raptors and their fans.
Prior to the start of the first-round series between the Wizards and Raptors, the 17-year NBA veteran confidently stated that the Raptors lacked the "it" factor to be considered as a serious threat in the playoffs.
Then after the Wizards defeated the Raptors at the Air Canada Centre in Game 2, the man known as "The Truth" exclaimed that he didn't want to go through customs anymore, implying that the series would end in a sweep.
After Toronto's embarrassing 125-94 loss in Washington on Sunday night that swept the Raptors out of the playoffs, Pierce emerged as 2-for-2 in the trash-talking department.
But he wasn't done just yet.
Pierce posted a picture on Facebook following the series-clinching victory portraying himself as the "King in the North," which is an obvious mocking of the "We The North" slogan.
Pierce also couldn't help but take a shot at Drake, the Raptors Global Ambassador, by reworking the title of the rap star's new mix tape "If You're Reading This It's Too Late."
Apparently the infamous handshake between them after Game 2 didn't mean as much to Pierce.
