Thank you Ray for being an integral part of a Celtics championship, no one can ever take that away from you.

That reporter killed the whole mood & vibe the second he brought up KG that’s why Ray left so quick😂😂😂

[benkylo]

Why even bring up KG? Pointless and killed the vibe. Great one!

[reymundoalvarado]

Look at Ray man, Dude looks like he can play now!

[marcob]

Ray was my favorite player at Uconn when I lived in CT

[JB-svpr]

Ray is the man wish he stayed a Celtic but you only get one life

Glad he’s been doing well

[GoodBeTrue]

The moment at the end was hilarious. Ray knows going against the Celtics and going straight to Miami killed his chances to solidify his legacy with the Celtics. He knows KG and Pierce dont reach out to him like that at all. He may have his 2nd ring but the cost was too great and now he is no longer in the inner circle with any of them and he feels left out. Wyc Grousbeck and the rest of Celtics ownership will never forget that he left for Miami and helped Lebron beat them, right after they lost to Miami the year prior and mind you, Lebron wouldn't have beat the Spurs without Ray's shot.

Essentially left his loyal ride or die wife for a IG baddie, baddie gave him 3 phenomal years then divorced him, took half his shit and doesn't even remember him fondly, now he got nobody to love lol😂

I remember 20 years old. I was so freaking excited when the Celtics signed Ray Allen. Then Kevin Garnett. Man 2008 was so fun and now 2024 was just as awesome.

[danielszeto]

Hey Ray, thank you for bringing the #17 to Boston. That is the most important after all!

[louisneals]

Love my boy Ray!!! Uconn and Celtics! HOF

[venkatakrishnams]

Ray should have stayed for one more year with Cs. 2012 after Game 7 loss, he chosing to go to Heat was a heartbreaker .... i know it was his choice n for his own good ... but....

[bestlexluthor]

I think for myself “ eh it’s the past”. But at the same time I think the cost is you DON’T get your # retired. I think Rondo would be more deserving.

[theclassicmanila-style]

Its been 16 years, retire his number, sonics are gone, Giannis owns 34 in Milwaukee, Do the right thing and raise no. 20

[AmandaMarieBrinkley]

Oh, it appears the interviewer knows theat Ray is missed by the Boston fan base because he doesn’t go there enough. We went to see Ray Allen be a full beloved part of the Boston family at all points in time.

[peteviksnins]

Josue does a fantastic job of cornering folks for interviews. Good work.

[rdstrandproductions]

[angelajohns]
