Allen proving doubters wrong with longevity

Via Fox Sports Florida  |  January 03, 2012
If Ray Allen ever has an infomercial touting his workout secrets, it wouldn't be a surprise if LeBron James and Dwyane Wade are quickly on the phone to those operators standing by. The Miami stars have been observing Allen for years, and they're continually amazed at what they've seen. The Boston shooting guard is 36 but hardly seems to have lost anything. Allen is...

Comments From the Other Side - Wizards 1/2

Via Celtics Life  |  January 03, 2012
During the last game, there were a lot of good comments about Rondo. This game, they are loving on Ray. However, KG gets the same hate in both threads. There's also a lot of complaints about the refs in both threads. Some things never change. I love how fans always ask who left Ray Allen open. No one leaves Ray Allen open. They just get tired from chasing him and slow...

It's not supposed to happen this way.  Shooters are supposed to wilt and die a quick NBA death once the legs give out and the jump shot becomes flat.  Ray Allen refuses to accept such a fate and with each passing moment, he truly is like a fine wine: he's getting better with age.  Maybe it's a nice merlot or perhaps it's a meritage blend of his preparation, nutrition...

Celtics 100, Wizards 92: Stiemsma, Allen lead third straight Celtics win against another miserable team

Via Celtics Town  |  January 02, 2012
The Boston Celtics have returned to .500. Greg Stiemsma looks like a legitimate backup center (although he started this affair). The Washington Wizards are not good. Boston spent three quarters treading water but applied a finishing kick that left the Wizards in their wake, giving way to a 100-92 victory.Including work, I’ve been writing more or less consecutively since 9 a...

Maybe it was President Barack Obama's gentle ribbing about his jump shot. Perhaps it was simply the time it took to get over the loss of teammate and close friend Kendrick Perkins. Or could it be something much more simple? Like more hard work and growing maturity. Whatever it is, Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo has reached new heights. Statistically, he's more freakish than...
