Just glad to know he's going, no matter what the circumstance. It's a shame for a young player like Jameer, and he's had a great year, but Ray certainly deserves this too.

I was hoping it would be Rondo since its a PG spot but I'm happy either way. :)

Best damn shooter alive. I was kind of hoping he would get passed over and he would take it on the Lakers though. Hell still hope he goes for 30 tonight.

Congrats to Ray, he is very deserving. Of course i wanted Mo and i am disappointed he did'nt get it but it was more so the fans who ruined it by voting in A.I as the starter. But again i can't be mad the Allen selection.

Oddly I'd say he deserves the spot this year much more than he did last year.

Yesss, the first good news tonight... the second will be our win over Lakers.

Ray totally deserved this, for all his inputs and efforts to improve his game. One of the best shooters this league has ever produced and certainly one of the MVP's overall this season, at least for me. Man, congratulation Jesus.

Ray will score 37 points in 15 minutes of play--and LeBron will get the MVP.
