Pierce responds to Hawks' Schroder: 'He's a little young ... he probably missed with me in 2K'

Bless young Dennis Schroder's heart.
Fresh off a stinging Game 3 loss at the hands of Paul Pierce and the Washington Wizards, the sophomore Atlanta Hawks guard said he felt Pierce's banked-in, game-winning buzzer-beater was a lucky shot.
Pierce, who called "game," not "bank," on his off-the-glass jumper, responded in vintage Truth fashion.
Pierce on Schroder: “I guess Schroder is going say that because he’s a little young…he hasn’t been able to see it over the last 17 years."

“He probably missed with me in 2K. He probably used me and missed.” - Paul Pierce on Schroder saying it was a lucky shot.

Schroder has passed through the second stage of denial. All that's left is for him to accept The Truth as being self-evident.
