Wizards now selling 'I called game' t-shirts in honor of Paul Pierce (Ball Don't Lie)

Throughout the 2015 NBA Playoffs, the 37-year-old former Finals MVP has put his money where his prodigious mouth is, trolling the Toronto Raptors both before and after he anchored a first-round sweep and soon set his sights on the Hawks after a Game 1 upset and his heroics in an important Game 3 win.
