Stephen A. asks Ray Allen about his relationship with Rajon Rondo and former Celtics | First Take 

word

That will be the first thing Skip says out his mouth no doubt

Chivo can i come to your funeral if that happens lol

Please happen

BUT HERES THE THING SKIIIIIIIIP! Yo imma die too bro just to see Shannon’s face 😂😂😂

Traitors don't have character.

DJ Roberts Irrelevant to Ray. It’s a business, and he is a true professiona!

@@djroberts6792 shut up fatass

@@djroberts6792 Traitors? When did he vocalize that he wanted to be loyal to Boston his whole career? Also, Boston tried to trade him numerous times so how is that betrayal from him?

Preciƨe would you have said the same thing if the player up here was white

Torenzo Gregory If you listen to most professional athletes talk they sound as if they have the vocabulary of a 8 year old child, so yes it is surprising when you hear one that sounds like a knowledgeable man

What the guy is saying is that he speaks as if he has been in the business / corporate world where he's required to give presentation regularly

Randy Marsh No he probably wouldn't have because most white athletes talk as if they have some sense, as a black man I understand in the hood we talk with a lot of slang but when you're in a professional setting you need to learn how to speak like a professional

You guys act like you can talk like Ray Allen when you probably struggle trying not to stutter in front of a crowd lol

The lack of hair also helps

Black don’t crack baby

Shut up nah

Yazdan J Skeeup

Taunting you I guess....😀😀😀😀

Yazdan J bruh 😂😂. I can hear him put emphasis on my Spurs

Jerome Marshall exactly 😂😂😂

Yazdan J lebron still would be a top ten player if they lost that series this man is 33 almost averaging a triple double stop hatin on greatness

Lmfao!!!!

Yeahhhh!

what happen?

boi i tell ya

Jesus !!

Rico Savage exactly lol.

ULTIMATE TRUTH

Roberto birdrose Who tf said anything about KD?? 😐

Roberto birdrose you trippin boi?

Exactly

wweecwwcwtnanba1928 She needs to stay in her lane. You notice how Allen never even looked at her during interview except for when she was muttering?

She’s all type of fine and from pa

Jalen Rose got him a SNAPPER! #GUDT!

😂

shrek x fiona everyone has different taste my dude. Some find her more attractive than others do. I think she’s fine as hell too

That’s what a good journalist does.

He asking questions that everybody wants to know. We never hear from Ray Allen like that so he has to ask

Imaelito AC facts

He's looking for a particular answer I would say

And this is why Stephan A. is making millions and we're .. not .

serialkiller77 no his full of shit he ask him a question he gets defensive

Like frfr

serialkiller77 there just mad he won a ring when he left.. bet if hed went to the grizzlies theyd be cool wit him

Theyre just mad he went to play with bron and won another ring..smartest fuckin move ever..if hed went to the grizzlies theyd be best friends today

serialkiller77 Grow up? Have you seen Area 21? 😂😂

The reason people come on talk shows is to promote stuff like books and movies. It's not a surprise. That's like saying people who make commercials will REALLY be mad to sell stuff. This ain't made for fun.

Henry castellon you right so don’t talk shit about KD

Right

Lil Dagga fuck kd he a Bitch

Lil Dagga Very bad comparison, Ray was old, about to retire, trying to win another ring, he was already a champion and the Celtics wasn't anything until he and KG joined. KD was right in his prime joining the team who just beat him and joining the current MVP. He didn't make his own super team to take down the best team, he joined them. The Warriors were an all-time great team without KD, he just joined their success.

Henry castellon why would he move to a team with worst personalities lol. He just hated rondo. He can't just admit all of his beef.

Chris W thank u like the organization wasn’t loyal to him

Chris W interesting but nevertheless that could be said about a lot of players being shopped around we think they're happy but they're not

Chris W excatly

Never heard that before... Where's your source?

Doc once called ray to tell him he was traded then the trade didn’t go through. Celtic’s completely disrespected him.

Exactly! It's not like every team was lining up to get him. One of them just happened to be the Heat.

knicks2030 not even that they’re mad at him for leaving and look what Boston did to them not even a couple years later they traded all of them Ray was smart and got out before it was to late

Neither Memphis nor clippers were direct rivals of Boston.

@@SerlingPictures It's a business. He said Clips ended up getting Jamal Crawford so his minutes would probably be limited there too. Memphis probably offered him less than Miami but let's be real, who would want to live in Memphis over Miami lol.

@@swerve589 ray allen probably also wanted to win a ring which memphis and clippers weren't going to do

He was talking about retiring with them. Rondo wasn’t gonna retire like 10 years into his career bro

Bronos 23 Lol. It used to be MJ last shot over the Jazz for his last ring, because people hate LBJ so much, it’s Ray’s now. Classic

ldg_ 7th i am a LeBron fan and he is the GOAT but its not about any of that ..MJ made an off foul and the game was tied and Rays was triling by 3 going backwards having to be able to not only hit it but to be behind a 3 point line which in corner is very tough to do..so thats why

Bronos 23 nah that would be Kyrie game 7 shot

David Manuel minute left and the score was tied and eeb though degree of difficulty was high it was not as high as Rays

David Manuel Nope

Berning Man Thank you!

Berning Man then why did they offer him more money than Miami?

King Alfred exactly

King Alfred they were trying to trade him the whole season and Miami didn't have a lot of room in the salary cap space to sign him so Boston could easily offer him more money

King Alfred ikr ppl just make up anything to make themselves right!!! Boston offer more money period loyalty been dead in sports soooo I don't blame him or anybody for the choices they make

Whats wrong with that?

As compared to where only pots r sold 🤪🤧

lmao in Rondo's defense, only KG and paul pierce hating. Kinda sad how he has to justify himself

And Rondo played with Wade

Stony Plain Heatbag 😁😁😁😁 FOREAL

That Dead Guy But y’all criticize KD for it

David Zamor ray did it at the end of his career and after he already won the first one. He also wasn't an MVP and 1st option on the Celtics winning.

David Zamor kd in his prime

fresh king Lmmfao he did what was best for him as a professional player. He didn’t like the organization way of treatment of himself. He was being a businessman in a business. Boogie Cousin found out he was traded on National TV during a press conference during a All-Star weekend press conference. I.T. was traded after playing with a bum hip and the day after he found out his sister died in a car crash. It’s a business.... he left as a free agent.

Man Ray was on his mid 30s wen he left. He was way out of his prime

Dean Talamantes Paul Pierce, KG, Rondo and all of them have said they’re not mad because he left, they’re mad that he left without telling them.

@@loganmurphy8265 didn't ray said he called kg and said the celtics ain't giving him what he wants

NJBeast 3 i dont know if thats true or not, but on Area 21 (a show hosted by KG) rondo, pierce, kg, perkins and big baby all agreed they werent mad because he left, they were mad cause he didnt tell them that he was thinking about leaving, and to top it off he went to the heat who at the time were the celtics main rival

@@loganmurphy8265 it was also in 1st take Allen called KG saying they won't give him his money then that's when he decided to leave bcuz...also if I were him and u have to pick between Memphis,Clippers, and Miami I would have also went to Miami

Fly Guy cuz people only do busses for themselves. But when you do it they wanna trip out. That’s why kyrie and lbj kool with each other they understand each other

The King of New York fuck em

Jabel sosseh facts they trash

That's a common term used within the publishing industry. See www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/3d7xzc/eli5_what_does_available_wherever_books_are_sold/

cp3shadow its not that deep lol

+Juex Roastee lol

doesnt mean shit lmao. i went to barnes n noble they didnt have that shit. better come up with a new term?

It is that deep. Your comment became way less funny after he pointed that out

Ur name is honestly GOAT

SlamCity Xx - 😂

🤣😂🤣

Traitorsworth.

ibr916 omg LMAO I forgot about that

It can happen to anyone. This is the Internet dating age.

Nah... I'd leave that one alone.

ibr916 the catfish dude said him and Ray were lovers.

I'd probably crawl in a hole after word got out

H Bizzle 🤟🏻

Bout as hard as he pressing his edgeup.

“Ray Allen for the game... GOT IT!!”

Edgar Fernandez that's probably because ray joined your daddy lebron and sqved his career 😂

I like KG and Ray, PP and Rondo are douchbags

Edgar Fernandez Pierce was a beast fuck out of here if you ask me Pierce carried the Cs on his back and has been doing so since he got drafted

Andrew Lee KG had a pretty good career also

Lebron James *Winning the ring for you

Saving your legacy with that greatest shot of all time

+Lebron James you should be thankful Ray hit that shot because you were going to get beat

+Millian Macalintal All I know is that if Ray didn't hit that 3 you guys were going to get beat

Lebron James And they was the reason why you ran to D Wade in the first place but 🐸🍷

*Correction - I can fathom it :)

He Got Game

Kash Sneakers kobe would have 2 rings if shaq never joined the Lakers

Enlightenment .W 1 if Metta World Peace didn't hit a game winner.

He saved LeBron's legacy.

Kash Sneakers Isn't he a part of the team? MJ is 1-9 without scottt

scotty*

Gian Rodriguez exactly if your shape you can peep that ray is smart but something being left out oh well still a hall of Famer and all of them should be happy they all world champions and successful black men

It could be that, or it could be that boston told those other guys a completely different story.

And you think they would trust what he has to say after he leaves them? You talk about staying together and suddenly one of those people leaves. I know how people are sensitive little bitches that won't believe the real truth or other peoples stories if it doesn't fit with how they think about it. You're in a situation that one person is leaving the group, while your club (that is treating you like a god) is telling you that he treated the club badly, used the club for a better deal etc. Would you believe him?

What possible reason would the celtics have? You don't think others would want to leave if they heard their club treated one of their teammates like shit? It only makes them look like a third grader if it comes out. If one player says it no one will believe him. Stories like that come out like 10/15 years later and people don't care anymore. You just keep looking at it from 1 angle. I'm just giving another angle which especially in sports isn't something weird. Pretty much every club in every professional sport has these kind of stories where they try to put a player in a bad light when it is in their best interest. Especially in cases where they leave a player with the option to either sign a contract without negotiation or leave the club. If the player leaves they say that they gave him a good deal and he just wanted more or wanted to use them to get a better deal somewhere else. It's like the basics of dealing with players in sports nowadays... So no, it wouldn't be a first that a club would do something like this...

King In My Own Mind I got gds

saam77 Real niggas dont switch on your friends to play with the enemy foh bruh🙅. Pierce was the realest carried that team like a champ Ray was mad Pierce took all the clutch shots and his bald head ass was salty at Rondo he was getting that much touches

That's what the person who has wronged you always says.

Giannis Ioannidis Pierce is a G foh he not letting a pussy slide for leaving the team to join the enemy for less money Ray is pussy

Pierce the same "G" that wanted a special day all for himself like some suburban caucasian princess LMAO

Sanji Allen Paul Pierce is a hater. Dude was straught talking mad shit about Lebron all the time then he gets hired on The Jump and then he switches it up real quick. Like PP as a basketball player but as a man hes a fake asshole who thinks way too highly of his 1 title.

@@karnliberated8891 😂😂😂

ParallelFilms For real tho. Grown ass men acting like petty high schoolers.

So everyone need to stop bitching about KD

ParallelFilms they're acting like a bunch of hoes

You ignorant imbecile. Pierce and Ray already squashed their past. It's KG that still hasn't let it go

Cmack34 mill lol fuck LeBron I agree he a crybaby too 😂😂

I thought the Celtics traded him, though.

Ka Chan thats a lie, they all hung out together with their wives and kids.

He's right, Heat and Celts had a rivalry going on around that time.

Ka Chan that’s literally the only reason, if he would have went to the Clippers or Memphis they wouldn’t be like this cause those teams weren’t going to Win a Chip, it’s only cause he went to the Heat but out of those options he had An he’s at the end of his Career why wouldn’t he go to the Heat that was the best fit for him to win, yes they had a Rivalry going on but the Celtics time was up an they were getting old an only had a few more years left before they retire An Ray knew that so he left at the perfect time, also he didn’t get along with Rondo, they were trying to reduce Rays role an even were considering trading him so KG is super Petty an actin like a bitch over this shit an mad Ray got another ring lol.

Ultimate Roryor Lmmfao he did what was best for him as a professional player. He didn’t like the organization way of treatment of himself. He was being a businessman in a business. Boogie Cousin found out he was traded on National TV during a press conference during a All-Star weekend press conference. I.T. was traded after playing with a bum hip and the day after he found out his sister died in a car crash. It’s a business.... he left as a free agent.

ldg_ 7th I agree. I just want him to stop beating around the bush. I think the people mad at him are fools. He a grown ass man, he can go wherever he wants.

dude he said they were trying to get a contract with the Celtics all season.. it was obvious he wasn't a priority so thats when the relationship broke and he considered other options.

He didn't beat around the bush he admitted Miami was the best option for him to win a Chip it's just Steven A keeps yapping like dumbass and can't let the man finish his sentence without screaming like annoying idiot

Ultimate Roryor Facts man this nigga is so fake I swear he went to Miami to be offered less money and come of the bench joining the rival team Ray is pussy asf
