Prior to last year’s first round series against the Nets, Raptors general manager Masai Ujiri sent fans outside of Air Canada Centre into a frenzy by yelling “F**k Brooklyn!” during a rally. Ujiri was at it again on Saturday.
Paul Pierce recently made comments on the Raptors that, not surprisingly, didn’t sit well in Toronto. Pierce stated he didn’t think the Raptors had the “it” factor that makes you worry during the postseason. He later attempted to clarify the remarks. However, the bulletin board material was already given.
Before Saturday’s game between the Raptors and Wizards, Ujiri addressed a crowd outside of the arena as he did a year ago.
