That reminds me of the Detroit series from 08 when Lindsey Hunter was hounding the Celtics young point guards so badly that Ray Allen had to bring the ball up and initiate the offense and then go run off a million screens. This was back when people still thought Rondo was a liability, and Eddie House + Pretty Sam were getting minutes.

He has a good looking shot ala Allen. But he's more athletic than Allen.


People forget how athletic Ray was when he was young player. He was a great athlete. Either they forget or they never saw a young Ray and only remember the Celtics run Ray.

I never said Allen wasn't athletic on his old days, I wrote that Ben is more athletic than Allen. Seems to me people haven't really seen Bens athleticism.
