Apr 19, 2015 5:38 PM

Masai Ujiri has received a $35,000 fine from the NBA for using obscene language during a public appearance on Saturday.

The Toronto Raptors also received a $25,000 fine.

"I don't give a s--- about 'it'," Uriji said in response to comments made earlier in the week by Paul Pierce.

"We haven't done particularly well against Toronto, but I don't feel they have the 'it' that makes you worried," Pierce said. "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.'"
