Tony Allen won't play tonight thanks to a sprained right achilles. He tweaked it yesterday at the end of practice, playing a four way one-on-one with Glen Davis, Gabe Pruitt, and Rajon Rondo.
"For something unfortunate like this to happen," he said. "It's just crazy to me."
Allen of course has a thing for those what the eff moments. Recall he had to shutdown his 2007 season after tearing his ACL, dunking a ball after the play was whistled dead.
Doc Rivers said Brian Scalabrine was activated in Allen's place.
It looked like the Allen, Pruitt, Davis and Rondo were just goofing around, but Allen said the one-on-one's were part of the team's routine.
"I was playing good too," Allen said
For what it's worth, that dunk last year wasn't half bad either.
