Paul Pierce Burns Hawks' Dennis Schroder After Questioning His Clutchness

Tyler BrookeMay 9, 2015

Washington Wizards veteran Paul Pierce has been hitting clutch shots ever since he was drafted by the Boston Celtics back in 1998.

Apparently, Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder didn't get the memo.

After Pierce hit a game-winning bank shot in Game 3 on Saturday, Schroder called it a "lucky shot," according to the CBS Sports NBA Twitter account:

After that comment, Pierce decided to remind the 21-year-old that this wasn't his first rodeo. Monumental Network and CBS Sports NBA shared his comments:

The Wizards hold a 2-1 series lead after the win on Saturday, and the comment from Schroder might just pump up "The Truth" even more.
