Paul Pierce has sparked a war of words between the Brooklyn Nets and the New York Knicks. Earlier this month, Pierce said that he believed that the Nets would eventually own New York. J.R. Smith is the latest Knick to take umbrage to Pierce's comments. "I just look at him as a bitter person just getting out of Boston. He doesn't really know what New York is all about. He's been playing in Boston his whole career," Smith told ESPN New York on Saturday. Source: ESPN New York
