      Well yeah naw totally different. When Ray joined he had Lebron, Bosh and Wade. When Rondo joined the Lakers all they have is Lebron. Completely different skill levels. I still think that Rondo, Garnett and Pierce need to quit acting like some hoe ass niggas and get over Ray leaving. I could understand if they was still upset after a few years, but its been over 10 years and they still act like hoes. Yall made over 100 million dollars easy, and you act like what Ray did was the worst thing ever.

      tough to say, very subjective. But I think there's something less "difficult" or clutch when you're in that situation and you have no other choice than to shoot. You don't have time to think or for pressure to build, you only have one option and it's to shoot. I think Lebron 3 right before could arguably be more clutch, and Jordan's in '98 because of the buildup and the time for defense to set, pressure to build, etc.

    I’ll never forget being at work at Rocky Rococo in the summer of 2000 in Wauwatosa WI (suburb of Milwaukee WI) and seeing Ray Allen (favorite player at the time) walk past and I went to talk to him. He was the nicest person ever and actually bought me some Chinese food and sat and talked to me as we both met; it was weird , it was almost like we were friends for years and I was just a fan. That was a moment of my life as a 17 year old that I’ll never forget, great player and a good person. Congrats to him for making the hall
