Miami Heat

Paul Pierce has would always troll the Miami Heat during his days as a player and now as an analyst. 

One of his latest tweets has led to several hilarious responses from Twitter users. Pierce posted a photo of himself with Kevin Garnett, Marcus Smart, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. The caption read: "Who's beating this 5?" 

Twitter immediately reacted with laughter, offering dozens of teams who they felt could beat the collection of past and current Boston Celtics' stars. Some made serious replies while others went above and beyond to bring humor, with one user saying Pierce's team would lose to four WNBA players and Lance Stephenson. 

Pierce will always strike a chord with Heat fans because of their rivalry during the LeBron James era in Miami from 2010-14. There was also the time Pierce said he had a better career than Heat legend Dwyane Wade during an ESPN segment. Pierce was quickly corrected by co-host Jalen Rose. 

Here's a look at some of the reactions to Pierce's tweet: 

Even former player J.R. Smith chimed in. And that's saying a lot considering the criticism Smith took during his career. 

In Pierce's defense, he did recently come out and give James his credit for being one of the league's best players ever. So not everything he says is invalid.
