TORONTO - Paul Pierce famously fired the first shot before Washington's playoff series with Toronto even began. And when the Wizards embarrassed the Raptors in a four-game sweep, Pierce couldn't resist having the last laugh.
Hours after the Wizards' 125-94 rout of the Raptors in Sunday's Game 4, Pierce took a parting shot by that depicted him on a throne under the headline "King in the North."
Drake, the Raptors' global ambassador, wasn't safe from Pierce's jabs either. The 37-year-old posted a picture of the rapper wearing a Wizards jersey under his button-up shirt, along with the words "If You're Reading This The Wizards Just Swept." It was a takeoff of Drake's recent mixtape "If You're Reading This It's Too Late."
"Drake a fool lol," Pierce tweeted.
Pierce was a lightning rod throughout the series, starting when he told ESPN.com in an interview that the Raptors don't have "it."
Looking back on the series, Raptors guard Greivis Vasquez said Monday that the Raptors could use a player like Pierce.
