Pierce: We’ll Surprise Teams During Playoffs

“Nobody is talking about us (Brooklyn Nets), but we feel like we match up with anybody in the league, especially in the Eastern Conference,” (Paul) Pierce said after scoring 14 points in 19 minutes against his former team. “Let the chips fall where they may.

“Come playoff time, we feel we can compete with the best of them, and we feel like we can be one of the better teams in the East, if not come out of the East, and we’ll be able to surprise a couple of teams.”
