Ray isnt going back to boston. he is going to win a ring in miami this year, then win another ring here next year and then retire.

spo also for some reason trusts him alot on defense.
i think hell have a good series vs the spurs though. i can see him having some decent stretches guarding green/ginobli
Fans tend to focus on man defense ... coaches are focused on team defense. Ray is a veteran and came from the defensive minded Celtics. Spoelstra trusts him to know where to be and what to do because he's proven that he can.

He's going to get a ring here and stay here.
Not sure how stupid you have to be buy into the double agent story. He has made it obvious he wants a team that A) respects him enough not to dangle him as trade bait, B) be able to get steady playtime, and C) good chance to win it all. If we can't offer him those things - which we may very well not be - he will either go somewhere where he does get those things or possibly retire.
Don't think Celtics are even an option in the future. He wants to win now and C's should start thinking about the future and getting younger, rather than older.
Do you not see the "lol" at the end of the title. Double agent mention is just for jokes.

Didn't remember seeing the "lol" earlier tbh, but the OP didn't look like a joke. At least not about the possibility of Allen going back to Boston. Maybe not that he is throwing games type double agent, but that he stopped caring or being invested in the Heat and trying to go to another team.

He's bringing it in the Finals. Love it! He and Miller have the mojo.
