Boston Celtics: Ray Allen speaks about his time as a member of the Green

Ray Allen deserved this moment. A 10-time all-star and more importantly a two-time NBA Champion, Allen accomplished so much during his professional career. He famously set the record for 3-point field goals made in a career as a member of the Boston Celtics. Despite his outstanding career accomplishments, most fans were focused not on his successes, but his beef with the 2008 Boston Celtics title team.

The head coach of the 2008 Boston Celtics, Doc Rivers, is tired of hearing about the conflict between the two sides. According to Chris Forsberg of ESPN, Rivers said that he wanted yesterday to be a celebration of Ray’s achievements throughout his career, and that the conflict between the team and Allen has seemed to overshadow this special day for him.
