Drake gets a lot of flack for always supporting front running teams or the star athlete of the moment, but he does have genuine love for his Raptors. Unfortunately or him however the Raptors are basically being run out of the Playoffs by the Wizards so he might not have much time left this season to cheer for them. With that in mind, Drizzy traveled to D.C. to watch the Raptors try and get back in the series. The moment he walked in the boo’s started but he handled it like a pro, taking a couple bows and enjoying it. It was all for not though as the Raptors lost again and now are down 3-0 in the best of seven series so it is pretty much a wrap at this point.

Playoff basketball is here, and the Washington Wizards are leaving little doubt in everyones mind that they’re here to compete for a championship. Watch John Wall speed down the court for a fast break and finish against 3 Toronto Raptor defenders, then pumping his chest and screaming, “this is my city!” All while staring in the direction of Mr. Ovoxo himself, Drake, who was seated court side.

Drake can be seen dapping up Washington Wizard, Paul Pierce, after Pierce’s Wizards defeated the Toronto Raptors and went up 2-0 in the series. Even after Pierce said Toronto couldn’t defeat the Wizards and the Raptors GM went on a rant saying they, “didn’t give a sh*t what Pierce said.”

Drake has been in LA for Coachella so the Toronto Raptors Global Ambassador wasn’t in the building this year for game 1 of the playoffs. Raptors GM Masai Ujiri was on hand to give another pregame rally for the fans and once again he let out an expletive that costed him a heavy fine. Though Drake couldn’t make it, he did post a response to show his support for Ujiri and the team.
NBA: Raptors GM Masai Ujiri Fined $35,000 For Saying “We Don’t Give a Sh*t” About Paul Pierce
It looks like Toronto Raptors GM Masai Ujiri is going to make this a playoff tradition. Last year he said “f*ck Brooklyn” during the Raptors fan rally before game 1 against the Nets. He was subsequently fined $25,000 and later apologized. This year ahead of the Wizards playoff game against the Raptors, Paul Pierce said the team “don’t have the ‘It’ that makes you feel worried.” Masai responded to Pierce’s comments by saying, “We don’t give a s— about it.” So what happened? You guessed it, he was fined and apologized yet again.
(Video) NBA: Raptors GM Masai Ujiri On Paul Pierce “We Don’t Give A Sh*t About Him”
From the same guy who said “f*ck Brooklyn” during the playoffs last year when the Raptors were facing the Nets, Raptors General Manager Masai Ujiri is now setting his sights on Paul Pierce. In this case though Pierce deserves it somewhat after he acknowledged the Raptors are a good team, but they don’t have “it”. Similar to last year, Ujiri went outside to “Jurassic Park” where Raptors fans convene to watch the game on a huge outdoor screen and make sure to let Pierce know what he and Raptors fans think of his comment. There is a chance Ujiri is saying “We don’t give a sh*t about it” instead of saying “Him” but either way it works. Gotta love the playoffs!
