Irrevocable Differences with Rondo was Ray Allen’s number one reason why he left Ray Allen has taken less money to join the Miami Heat after departing Boston. Many have said that there are many reasons for this, and one of the main reasons was Allen’s deteriorating relationship with the Celtics’ starting point guard Rajon Rondo. [...]

When we first heard about this alleged beef between Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen, we knew there was only one man that could get to the bottom of this. Only one man who could find out where it all started. That man was Celtics Life investigative reporter Rondo Burgundy. With the help of a tip from Wicky Wubio from our world famous Shout Box, Rondo Burgundy has uncovered exclusive footage...

It was never about money. The Celtics offered Ray Allen a two-year deal worth $12 million. Miami offered him what they could, which was only $9 million over three years. If Allen wanted to make as much cash as he could before ending his NBA career, he would still be wearing green. Instead, he has decided to sleep with the enemy. The feeling of betrayal Boston fans are coping with...

Anything to make a buck or two. Barstool Sports is selling a new Ray Allen T-Shirt that pokes fun of the former Boston Celtics guard’s nickname that he earned when he starred in the basketball movie “He Got Game.” Instead of it saying “Jesus Shuttlesworth,” it calls him “Judas Shuttlesworth.” Have to say, rather clever.

MIAMI Ray Allens number never will hang above the parquet floor.
That became assured when Allen, who had played in Boston for five eventful seasons and helped the Celtics to the 2008 title, bolted to sign with rival Miami as a free agent. But hows this for a way for Heat president Pat Riley to welcome Allen, whose emotions clearly have been torn, to his new city?
We hope (Allen...

Loyalty in sports is an often questioned topic. Should players stay in the town where they were made famous and where the fans backed them vociferously, or is playing for a team simply a business decision?
The NBA has seen its share of star players changing teams often, which occurred when Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett joined Paul Pierce in Boston in 2007. They won the title in their...

With the chance to digest the Ray Allen to Miami deal over the last few days, and the reluctance to post a spur of the moment instant reaction article (partially thanks to a crashed Hard Drive) the last few days have given me an opportunity to really think about the details of what went down, and it’s still pretty similar to how I felt when I heard the news for the first time...

Please please please please pleeeease, let one of these happen!
With Ray Allen's departure and Bradley's uncertain status for the beginning of the regular season, the Celtics desperately need another guard. O.J. Mayo or Courtney Lee would be perfect in my opinion.
Last year O.J. Mayo averaged 12.6 points a game for Memphis while shooting 40% from the floor and 36% from...

Ray Allen is officially a member of the Miami Heat, and while he may be justified in leaving Boston to chase a ring with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, that decision will come at a price. By leaving -- and leaving to join the rival Heat, no less -- Allen very well may have said goodbye not only to the city of Boston, but also to any chance he had at one day seeing his jersey hanging...

In the wake of Ray Allen's departure to the Celtics' hated enemy and his comments that he will always be a Celtic, I thought it would be good to show a REAL Celtic's reaction to the Heat. As a Celtic, you HATE them. You don't join them. It appears that a Heat fan with the same last name as Fab offered to be one of Fab's biggest fans. To his credit, Fab...

No, really, he’s totally psyched about playing in front of fair-weather fans who would never ever ever cheer for the Heat if they were getting blown out. He just looks sad naturally. NOT SAD!
Yesterday I caught some excerpts from Ray Allen’s introductory press conference down in Miami, which somehow went on without the use of pyrotechnics, dry ice, or predictions about winning...

Every once in a while, Twitter reveals some interesting things. Usually, the social media network only reveals what Chad Johnson had for lunch, how many tummy crunches Brooke Burke Charvet did this morning or that Ashton Kutcher is still a dope. Occasionally -- such as when Mike Wallace's death prompted dismay from Pittsburgh Steelers fans mistaking the television journalist...
