man, it's awful that a player decided to fuck with a GM who fucked him the last few years after taking a pay cut to come back. these players have too much power! why can't these slaves players stay with my team for life (or unless we can get better chips for them via trade, or LOL amnesty)?

he doesn't need the money, wants to win another championship and is sick of Ainge and Rondo. dat pride!

Sick of Rondo because he's has too big of an ego to listen to him...yep. Sounds about right.

"When it comes to basketball, Rondo is the smartest player on the team – one of the smartest players in the league," one locker-room source said. "And Ray considers himself a smart guy. But at some point, it became hard for Ray to be corrected by a guy so much younger than him."

Wow, I really just cannot believe they got him. Games are going to be incredible to watch this season. Allen on a wing for the heat? Jesus H Christ man. They have like NO money available and yet still making these great moves. I think I had best stay away from RealGM today, I cannot even imagine the meltdowns.

So I read that Yahoo piece on Ray which noted several times he has that respect for authority from a military household, that clashed with the ofttimes 'lackadaisical' Rondo. But now he gets to play with Chris 'but we just wanted to chill' Bosh and Co.

Rondo has been on the block for years in numerous trade rumors and Ray is a vet and he can't handle it? Pierce almost got traded to the Nets. Ray's main reason to go to the Heat isn't even to get rings. Ray demanded 3/27 from the Celtics which is bitch made. This was a 100% pride move.

Oh. Must read on the Ray move.

Um what? Of course ray isn't about to take that shit, why? Because he's a HoF vet. No one thinks Pierce was really close to being traded, while Ray was basically told pack your shit you going to Memphis.

Celtics overpaying KG 3/34 is "bitchmade", please. That article sums it up perfect.
And yet for those in New England daring to call it treason, well, Ray Allen will call it something else: My turn.

Anybody crying and calling Ray a bitch and a traitor is "bitchmade"

Yeah this is what I dont get. Its like Steve Nash didn't just join the Lakers a few days ago. Not even the media is buying it this time, essentially telling folks calling Ray a traitor to STFU.

Steve Nash leaves to division rival LA: Good move for him, I hope he's happy there and get's his chip.

Ray Allen leaves to conference rival MIA: TRAITOR, JUDAS, BITCHMADEEEEEEEEEEEE!

How is giving the best player on the Celtics maybe one more year than he should have "bitchmade"? If anything, that's rewarding the guy who made the Celtics relevant again. He's a top ten player in the NBA, there's no reason he should be paid less than Batum and far less than Hibbert this year.

Heat are more despicable than the Lakers. If Nash went to the Heat, people would be hating on him too.

Batum's contract will be one of those punchlines on Grantland in about 2 years.

He's a lot better than Iggy, Melo, and Rondo and I think he's better than Kobe and Bosh as well. It's back and forth between him and Deron since KG is the best defender in the NBA right now with Bogut and Dwight hurt while Deron is a terrible defender (possibly the worst in the NBA at closing out on three point shooters)

Seriously? He is not better than Rondo or Kobe. Bosh is debatable.

I don't know how you can even judge it when Rondo is the only reason KG gets wide open midrange jumpshots over and over again

and best defender in the NBA, lmao

Who is better than him defensively other than Bogut or Dwight when those guys are healthy and engaged?

Ray isn't as good as KG and his impact even isn't close.
