You Stay Classy, Ray Allen!

As many of you now know, I am a big fan of guys that play the game the right way. Guys who respect the game. Guys who truly enjoy playing, and would play the game even if they weren't getting paid. Sure, there are many of these guys in the NBA today, but one guy exemplifies 'class' and how the game should be played. That guy is Walter Ray Allen, you may also know him as Jesus Shuttlesworth. Of all the people within the Celtics' organization that I was happy for, I was happiest for Ray Ray. His commitment to this team was unmatched. He sacrificed personal accolades, just as others did, for the good of the team. Once a ruthless jump-shooter, Ray struggled to find his niche in these playoffs. Ray's struggles were well-chronicled by the National Media, but he just kept doing what has worked for him since he led Hillcrest High School to the South Carolina state title in '92-93. He's also one of the most well-spoken, nicest guys you'll find in the NBA...
