This is what happens when you hit a buzzer-beater to win a playoff game.
Wizards forward Paul Pierce received a write-in vote in Sunday's presidential election -- in Poland.
This piece of news really blew away Pierce's teammate (and Poland native) Marcin Gorat.

The man who gave Pierce the vote is a contributor to the Wizards-dedicated blog, TruthAboutIt.Net.
Due to the lack of better candidates, I voted @paulpierce34 for the President of Poland today. pic.twitter.com/r58AYi0j6B

We really like his touch of writing in Pierce as No. 34.
