Following Toronto GM Masai Ujiri's 'F--- Brooklyn' remark, Pierce and Williams were dismissive of the Raptors' trash-talking. Paul Pierce plays the ‘Who is this guy?’ card in responding to Raptors GM Masai Ujiri’s ‘F--- Brooklyn’ remark at a pep rally before Toronto’s first-round series against the Nets. If Raptors GM Masai Ujiri tried to stir the pot and ignite a war of words, he instead elicited a different type of insult from the Nets: indifference and rejection. After Sunday's film session, Paul Pierce said the Nets were further encouraged because they could've played better and still came up with a road victory in Game 1 against Toronto. And on the subject of Toronto's GM hollering "F--- Brooklyn" at a fan pep rally prior to tipoff, Pierce went with the "Who is this guy?" response. "I'm shocked Bryan Colangelo would make such a comment," Pierce said in a sarcastic tone. Ouch. As Pierce was then told, Colangelo is the former Raptors GM. He stepped down over the summer after 12 seasons. Ujiri then took over. "I don't know who you're talking about," Pierce responded, echoing the sentiment of his coach. This has become the go-to move from the Nets, a reaction that either they're above the trash talk, or, more likely and insultingly, the Raptors are beneath them. Deron Williams, who was aggressive offensively Saturday while scoring 24 points, cut off a reporter Sunday who was leading to the inevitable question. "Is there a Nets-Raptors rivalry? No. The Raptors, who are pushing a new edgy marketing campaign entitled "We the North," certainly weren't running away from their GM's profanity — even it might cost him some fine money from the NBA — posting the video on the team's Instagram account. Ujiri was also backed by players and Raptors coach Dwane Casey. Deron Williams gets aggressive on offense Saturday night, scoring 24 points. The only thing missing is a blessing from Toronto mayor Rob Ford, who was issued an insulting wager with Brooklyn borough president Rod Adams. "I can't say I'm surprised (at Ujiri's comment). After all, Brooklyn is a classier place. Just spend some time with their ... colorful mayor. Still, we spread love; it is, after all, the Brooklyn way," Adams said in a statement. "Rather than mess with verbal barbs, I say it's 'put up or shut up time', Toronto! I'm willing to send up North some of Brooklyn's best if the Raptors can prevail, perhaps a six-pack from Brooklyn Brewery or a CD from the First Family of hip-hop. The ball is in Mayor Ford's court to meet the challenge. The Nets, meanwhile, have good reason to feel confident heading into Tuesday's Game 2 in Toronto, having snatched homecourt advantage despite shooting 4-for-24 from beyond the arc. The bench didn't give the Jason Kidd much to feel good about between poor showings from Mirza Teletovic (0-for-5 on 3-point attempts) and Marcus Thornton (0-for-4). But the backcourt of Williams and Johnson carried the Nets for most of three quarters, until Pierce took over down the stretch. "We know we can play a lot better than we did," said Pierce, who scored nine of his 15 points in the final three minutes. "We feel like we didn't play our best basketball. Coming out with a win and knowing we didn't play our best, we'll take some positives from that. The playoffs are sort of like a boxing match, man. You come out and you swing a punch, get some punches through, and then the next round it changes. You gotta expect them to make adjustments, but you also gotta expect us to make adjustments. Like I said, we didn't feel like we played our best basketball. There's some things we can do better defensively, we thought we gave up far too many threes in transition. So we have to take away some of their strengths that they were getting opportunities and knowing that we can play better. So it's all a chess match, a boxing match, a basketball game, and you gotta make adjustments, and that comes game in and game out. Pierce might be dismissing the Raptors GM, whoever it might be, but he's very aware of the moment. "Not a lot of guys really thrive in playoff pressure situations," he said Sunday. "I'm really a guy that thrives in that setting. TORONTO – This turned profane quickly. Even before the Game 1 started Saturday, Raptors GM Masai Ujiri addressed a raucous crowd of thousands outside of the Air Canada Centre and, as he was walking off a podium in the pep rally atmosphere, shout...April 19, 12:30PMToronto Sun pokes fun at aging Nets roster with RAPTORS VS. A tip of the cap to our friends at the Toronto Sun for Saturday's RAPTORS VS. DINOSAURS back page. As the "veteran" Nets head north of the border for Game 1 of this Eastern Conference first-round series, The Sun delivers a good laugh. "... Caught on camera and criticized by Jeff Van Gundy the last time he was on national television, Joe Johnson admitted it was in poor taste to laugh on the bench during a blowout loss. “(Van Gundy’s) probably right. We shouldn’t have been laughing,... Daniel Murphy added some flourish to the Subway Series Monday night, tomahawking his bat into the turf as he ran to first after delivering the winning hit in the Mets' 2-1 victory over the Yankees at Citi Field. The catch seemed destined to be another moment that defined the baseball pecking order in New York. Certainly the way the season has gone, Brett Gardner’s spectacular catch was proof this would be another night when the Yankees and Mets would go their separate ways. Mariano Rivera's retirement tour continued Monday with the iconic final player in baseball ever to wear No. 42 seated in front of a giant blue version of his number inside the Jackie Robinson Rotunda at Citi Field. Apparently, defending Carmelo Anthony just isn’t the same as trying to stop LeBron James. Paul George, the Pacers’ small forward, has emerged as the rising young star of the NBA playoffs, with his strong defensive performance against Anthony in the second round. The rules regarding the media and John Tortorella are brutally clear: If you ask the Ranger coach any questions about his struggling players, about injuries, about lineups or opponents, you will quickly be told to kiss his butt, which did not have such a great season behind the bench. The first Subway Series meeting of 2013 didn't lack for drama. But Daniel Murphy's 8th inning hit, which followed David Wright's HR sealed it, 2-1 for the Mets. Each week we scour the wide world of sports looking for a little sports-related eye candy to spice up the Sunday newspaper. Here is a collection of our 'Score' babes. News takes a look back at some of the most memorable moments from past battles between the Mets and Yankees for Big Apple bragging rights. Tony Kanaan drove past Ryan Hunter-Reay on a restart with three laps to go, then coasted across the finish line under yellow when defending race winner Dario Franchitti crashed far back in the field. Lundqvist stopped 29 shots, but the Bruins still proved to be too much to handle for the Blueshirts, defeating them 3-1 and ending the series in five games. Manchester City defeats Chelsea, 5-3, during a soccer game player at Yankee Stadium. On the verge of being swept, the Rangers rallied from two deficits to tie the game and win it in overtime on Chris Kreider's deflection of Rick Nash's shot. The Rangers got a second-period goal and 32 saves from Henrik Lundqvist, but Daniel Paille's late goal gives the Boston Bruins a commanding 3-0 lead on the Rangers. The Knicks fell apart at the end of the fourth quarter, losing to the Pacers, 106-99. The Bruins rattle off three unanswered goals for a 5-2 win that gives Boston a 2-0 series lead on the Rangers. Oxbow, with 50-year-old jockey Gary Stevens aboard, was sent off at 15-1 odds and led from the start. Sixth in the Derby, Oxbow held on to beat Itsmyluckyday by 1 3/4 lengths. The second leg of horse racing's Triple Crown heads to Baltimore and the Pimlico Race Course for Saturday's Preakness Stakes. It's part fashion show, part fraternity party as the horses take a back seat ... at least in this photo gallery. Carmelo Anthony and J.R. Smith shot better and Chris Copeland provided a much-needed boost as the Knicks forced a Game 6 with an 85-75 win in Game 5 over the Pacers. The Bruins badly outshot the Rangers in overtime and Brad Marchand put one past Henrik Lundqvist to give Boston a win in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.
