TORONTO – Toronto Raptors’ arch-nemisis Paul Pierce sure knows how to rub salt in the wounds.

Not long after the Washington Wizards swept the Raptors in the first round NBA playoff series Sunday night, “The Truth” showed off his photoshop skills with a Game of Thrones inspired meme titled “King in the North” posted on his official Facebook page.

The slogan plays off of the Raptors’ rallying cry of “We The North.”

Pierce also unleashed a second image barrage targeted at Raptors’ global ambassador Drake.
