Raptors GM Masai Ujiri Yells “Fu*k Brooklyn” Before Playoff Series Vs. Nets [Video]

Toronto Raptors fans are embracing the team’s return to the NBA playoffs. The Raptors haven’t been in the playoffs since 2008, and haven’t won a playoff series since 2001. 10,000 fans came out to Maple Leaf Square to cheer on their team. Raptors GM Masai Ujiri addressed the crowd and really got them pumped when he yelled out  “F*ck Brooklyn!!”

 

Masai later apologized to ESPN’s Chris Broussard and wanted it stressed that he didn’t mean to be disrespectful and simply wanted to get the crowd fired up.

 

I LOVE it!

 

That’s not the only trolling from the Raptors early in these NBA playoffs. Raptors media dubbed the series “Raptors vs. Dinosaurs,” taking a shot at the older age of the Brooklyn Nets – Paul Pierce and KG specifically.
