Jesus Delivers Redemption - Celtics Rise to Win 97-91

Found June 13, 2008 on Perkisabeast.com Blog:
PLAYERS: Ray Allen
TEAMS: Boston Celtics

In a game that tested both our will and spirit, Ray Allen, in a beatific 48 minutes of basketball, led our Boston Celtics to the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history. Yes, Dear Reader(s), Our Sensei fell in battle, nearly torn apart by the struggle, but his brothers-in-arms carried the load , willing victory. The Mighty Jesus was there the whole time - maybe it was to remind us exactly how miraculous salvation is. Redemption comes in so many forms.

  • I hope the shoulder can let him play at least 20 minutes in game 5, but Doc says it doesn't feel too good...1 more game four this banged up team to get it done...need Perk to keep wearing out Odom and Gasol...the Perk effects KG and what he can do down low either side...win the 1 and get some surgery if needed...weei said about 5 or so that Rajon feels better and PP is well, Pierce with the ankle now...good thread as Perkins has quietly worn out, along with Posey and PJ, that LA formidable Frontline...like the NFL network, really like the NBA Network for those interviews along with the local shows...offtrack, but yes, PERK!...love that guy and hope he stays here a long time

Ray Didn't Even Visit Us

Via Coffee on the 50  |  March 11, 2009
Apparently Ray Lewis was in Los Angeles recently, and he didn't even look Lauryn and I up. Turns out, he was only a few minutes away as he tried to get into a club with Ray Allen. Unfortunately for #52, the Celtic sharp-shooter isn't that popular in SoCal these days after Boston took out the Lakers in the NBA Finals. The result? They both got denied from a club called "...

Thanks to a red hot Ray Allen (24 of his 27 pts) and Leon Powe (13 of his 23 pts), the Celtics held a 5 point halftime lead over the Heat. But the Celtics came out of the lockeroom with the intensity of a girl scout troop. Miami started hitting all their jumpers and surged ahead [...]

Off-Season Review Part 2/30: The Boston Celtics

Via fullcourtnba.blogspot.com  |  July 05, 2007
Paul Pierce and Ray Allen are both good citizens and good people who have developed their service and humility; in other words, they're old and don't belong to the new generation of luxury and thuganomix. They will indeed find a way to coexist without hogging the ball from each other

Get to Know Big Baby Davis

Via Celtics Green ...a boston celtics blog.  |  September 21, 2008
Ronald Glen Davis was born in Baton Rouge on Jan. 1, 1986 to Donald Robertson and Tonya Davis. He got the nickname big baby when he was playing in peewee leagues. Because he was bigger than the other kids his age, he was playing with older kids and would whine at times and they would call him a big baby and the name stuck. Big Baby has a way of seeing the bright side of everything...

Ray Allen rolled his right ankle on Saturday, but played through it to nail the game winner.  Tony Allen suffered a bruised thigh in the same game.  Neither practiced today.  So that means Gabe Pruitt is coming back from the NBDL. Now aren’t you glad I’ve been telling you how he’...

Random Thoughts 4/30

Via Celtics Green ...a boston celtics blog.  |  April 30, 2008
I'm as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs today. All season long, I was certain that the Celtics would come out and play tough team defense and that would at least lead to a chance to beat any team in the league. After watching the Celtics defense disintegrate and be nowhere to be found in the last two games, I just don't know which team will show...
