Re: How Pathetic has Ray Allen become?
Did he even sign yet? Thought he was still weighing out his options.

Re: How Pathetic has Ray Allen become?
He's too old to be the man and much of his prime was spent playing for sub par teams. I don't blame him for wanting to get as many rings as possible. He's spent most of his life dedicated to this game and now he's in his twilight years. Might as well try to end on a high note.

50 cent said it best. Dam homie, in high school you was the man homie. happened to you?
Garnett did the same thing with Paul Pierce going to the Nets.
Where's the thread crying about him?

He's just being humble, what do you want him to say, he's better than him? no. In history, players always give credit to others, positively say things like "he's better than me", it's not new.
Realistically, Reggie > Ray
Reggie's clutch shots are legendary. Both are amazing shooters, although I lose respect for Ray in the past years due to him ring chasing and riding Lebron's nuts.

Re: How Pathetic has Ray Allen become?
Ray Allen is a beast, and I believe a hall of famer. He's stayed healthy and kept his nose clean for years, not to mention having a hell of an all-round game.
He can do whatever he wants IMO. I do see a lot of parallels to Ray and Reggie, but different cats for certain. I can't knock him for paring up with LeBron.

I'm sure he's crying in his sleep because of your opinion.

You probably are mistaken because the only player he said that was better than him as a shooter/player was Drazen Petrovic.
I doubt that he would ever consider a player that he constantly beat/outperformed in the regular season and playoffs better than him.

Rays a b.tch but he's making a smart decision.
Lebron can get him open looks all day and compete for titles...

Re: How Pathetic has Ray Allen become?
WTF is he supposed to do at his age? It's either retire or chase titles.

Re: How Pathetic has Ray Allen become?
Just makes me respect that 13th pick in the 1996 NBA Draft more and more every day. Ray Allen lucky that he is a fellow UConn alum. We stick together. So I am cutting him some slack. Play on, Ray. Play on.
