Paul Pierce does it to Toronto again, leading Washington’s OT win over the Raptors.

Every seat had a white t-shirt draped over it, a big red no. 6 in the middle.  The We The North nation was transformed into the 6th man, and despite being as loud as ever a familiar foe silenced them all and led the Washington Wizards past Toronto in game 1 of their NBA playoff series.  Sportsnet has the details of a thrilling game in which the Raps came oh-so close.

Despite this opening game setback, do you think the Raptors will still win the series?
