I have always thought he was the most overrated "star" in the league for several years and these playoffs have proved just that.
-
Yeah Allen's been a complete no show
-
I blame Doc Rivers for changing everything they've been doing all year long.. Obviously Ray is getting older and has gone through injuries, and he hasn't been a factor recently. But they can run some catch and shoots for him, and eventhough he was struggling today I would have had him in when it was free throw time at the end and inbounded to him. Dude is basically a machine from the line. I guess it's moot because House and Pierce came through.
The Celts won, but they're going to have to step up drastically to fuck with the Pistons. They have 2 things going for them: 1) Home Court 2) David Stern will make insane $$$ w/ a Laker/Celtic finals.
-
Of course, you think David Stern wants Detroit to make the finals? he probably gets depressed at the thought of that.

Yeah thats what I am worried about. I dont trust the NBA at all w/ that kind of stuff. The Celtics suck and the Pistons are MUCH better but who knows how fucked up the officiating will be, fuck David Stern.

^ assuming lakers make it to the finals, i dont think stern would mind all that much. since pistons have the exact startling line-up (minus ben but plus mcdyess) as the one who killed our dynasty in 04 and caused our team to break up, there actually is a storyline to sell to the fans. plus lakers are going to draw ratings no matter wut.
if spurs or hornets make it to the finals tho... well its gonna draw shitty ratings just like last year. thats regardless of who comes out the east.
-
^^Yeah but I think Spurs are going to the finals, thats my concern.

You think wrong, you really think the old ass Spurs who are barely squeezing past the Hornets and went through that series with Phoenix will be able to last a 7 game series with the Lakers? there is a chance but not likely. Nobody likes the Spurs, they are the most boring team in the league and they have already got more than their share. I'm sure everyone would HATE to see them in the Finals again.

lol, amen to that. lets all hope hornets take them out in game 7. nobody wants to see those floppers anymore, and we sure as hell dont need them injuring our players while playing their "tight defense"

Ray Allen defo does not suck..
He is and has been one of best pure shooter's in the NBA since his intro.
But dude is defo in a Shooting slump right now, no doubt!!
I look for him to get his stroke back in the following series against the Pistons.
"Jesus Shuttlesworth" will be back & in top form in the Detroit series.
Celtics will win in 5 games.
-

LMAO. Celtics will loose by 20 in Detroit.

nah he sucks man.
-
Stern will do what he can to help the Lakers and the Celtics.

Ray Allen is money. Ill take him on my team any day. Still one of the best shooters in the league, hands down. Saying he sucks is a dumb-ass comment to make, especially when Jermaine Oneal is your favorite player. Talk about being overated.....Not saying JO sucks either, but c'mon man, "ray allen sucks" is a stupid comment to make.

u do not seriously think that ATL & CLE took Bos to 7 games, and Det is going to win 2 less games than ATL and CLE (CLE is good but not on Det level) did :-\ :o

This thread has nothing to do with JO's ridiculous injuries he has year after year. This is about Ray Allen and how insanely overrated he is. Sorry he isn't very good, I have watched him play my whole life and when it has mattered he has NEVER done anything, lol at all those years he was the star on the Bucks and Sonics :-X They never did anything! In terms of "stars" or "superstars" HE SUCKS.
-
Ray Allen hasn't been great this post season.
but when hes on the FT line...he makes sure he hits them. 97%? thats sick.
-
Who is Ray Allen? I didn't see anyone named Ray Allen in the playoffs.
-
Ray Allen is overrated...That said, I don't think you can put him in the "sucks" category. Is he a premier superstar in this league? naah...but dude is one of the best shooters to ever play the game and can put up some points on any given night. If his shot is not falling, he's useless...that's exactly what's been happening in these playoffs.
Also...He DID lead his team to a 7 game series in the eastern conference finals back in '01. Other than that, yea, he's pretty much been relegated to a regular season success story.
