DeMar DeRozan is Toronto's leading scorer with 20.1 points per game, while point guard Kyle Lowry averages 17.8 points and 6.8 rebounds per game.

Wizards forward Paul Pierce ruffled feathers in Toronto with some smack talk before the start of the series. 

"We haven't done particularly well against Toronto, but I don't feel they have the 'It' that makes you worried,'' Pierce told ESPN's Jackie MacMullan. "There isn't a team I look at in the Eastern Conference that makes me say, 'They are intimidating, we don't have a chance.'"
