Tony Allen out with thumb injury....

Tony Allen didn’t accompany the team to New Orleans today after injuring his left thumb in practice, but contrary to a team report that X-rays taken on the thumb were negative, a Celtics source said today that the guard has actually suffered torn ligaments.

I guess we will hear more today..... 8-)

The good thing is our bench will look much better, the bad thing is if he is injured he won`t get traded...

We should start using more Giddens and Walker. We need those guys developed before the playoffs..

Great...Im looking forward to good play from our bench with pruitt/eddie/pierce...

As Birdman said...I hope he doesnt destroy our chances to get him traded...

it's sad to say but I think we'll play better without Tony. Certainly Eddie will. Gabe now has yet ANOTHER chance ;maybe this time he'll do something with it
