    The fact Allen can convert a dribble drive and layup and provide some useful movement you have to pay attention to instantly makes him more valuable than anyone currently on the bench.....easily lol

    But yes, MIAs biggest need is a big...

      Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)

      I have a friend who is a Heat fan.

      He said he would rather have Allen than anyone else on the Celtic's roster.

      I know we appreciate Rondo's ability as a PG on OS, but it seems outside of here, the average fan just doesn't give the guy any credit.

      Keep in mind, I'm a Lakers fan and I hate the Celtics.

      I don't blame Ray Allen for this move, but It's going to be even harder for me to get used to seeing him in a Heat uniform than it will be to see Nash in a Lakers uniform. Just a weird off season for some of these future NBA HOF guys. Is it a quick cash out, trying to get another ring and $$ or are these legit moves ? Either way, I can't blame either Nash or Allen.

        That's been their biggest need for two years now, yet they still get into the NBA finals. They just beat a team with two bigs, in a five game series. This isn't the 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s - the big man is a dead art.

        As long as James, Wade, and Bosh stay healthy, they'll be back in the finals. Ray Allen and his health will just be an extra bonus, because honestly, Miami didn't need him either. Does a big man help the cause? Probably, but it certainly isn't needed - at least not to get into the finals, not for the Miami Heat.

            So just because they can make it without one, means that they don't need to get one? Bottom line is they didn't need Ray Allen to get back to the finals either, and it would've made far more sense to sign a Marcus Camby or even a Kenyon Martin.

              Yeah, if you read my post again, I think you'll see I said just that.

              Ray Allen is a nice signing, especially for the drama, since I can't stand Boston. There's a reason Ray Allen was their #1 target, and not Marcus Camby or Keyon Martin. I think they know a little more than we do, just sayin'.

              If you like Camby so much, I hope your favorite team can work something out.

                Well Allen is a better fit for the Heat than Rondo. Miami already has inside scoring and ball distribution. They want shooters.

                  It's weird to me that anyone associates Ray with the Celtics. I didn't even realize that he had been there for 5 years so maybe it's just me but I think of Milwaukee and Seattle before Boston whenever he's brought up.

                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                      I don't see how people call him a Sonic when he been there 5 years like the Boston but haven't accomplished anything in Seattle close to winning.

                      If anything, he's a Buck but he only played there for 6 years..

                          The fact you even took the time to post a Metta World Peace tweet in here is offensive to this thread.

                            Utmost respect for Ray Allen. To me, he is more than a spot up shooter.

                              Ian Mahinmi just retweeted this:

                              Please someone tell me @CharleeRedz13 @ianmahinmi & @bwright34 are coming back for the #Mavs this season and i'll get off this ledge #jumper


                              Not sure what to think of that...

                              Dude who originally tweeted must not be a very good Mavs fan though because Brandan Wright has been coming back since before free agency even started.
