Big three ESPN interview 

Post#1 » by cdubbz » Sun May 4, 2008 9:23 am

I know its another boston post, but who cares. Did anyone watch sportscenter with ray allen, pierce and kg? Well the interviewer asked a really good question.

"Down by 1 with 5 seconds left in the game, who do you want to take the shot" And she gave them 3 seconds to say their answer and she counted out 1...2...3...and KG and pierce both said "ray" while ray allen said "the open man".

Pretty interesting in my opinion...i know they talk about this durin timeouts and stuff if it were to ever happen.

Why wouldn't you get it to one of the greatest shooters in the history of the game?

Ray's the obvious choice, and all three of them knew it, but Mr. Allen was going out of his way to come off humble.

Probably. But I thought the topic was about the 1st seed Celtics chokers.

^ Yeah seriously ^

People are acting like the Celtics have already choked when in fact it's still VERY likely they win this series. They've completely dominated the Hawks at home... Would I like the Hawks to win? Yes. Will they win? Probably not.

Anyway I never heard the interview but it's basically what you would expect.

Neither KG or Pierce are players winning teams want to trust in the clutch, Allen on the other hand has demonstrated his ability to hit clutch shots time and time again.

It's a thing of beauty to watch him curl off screens and let it rip.

Not Rajon Rondo, that's for sure.

Leon Powe maybe.

But, seriously, Ray Allen has ICE IN HIS VEINS. [Anyone remember that crazy Charlotte game?]

Stupid interviewer! :banghead:

She should've counted down from 5, not up to 3.

Anyway, yeah, Ray seems like a good bet. You know, those 25962856 reasons.

I think the Celtics have choked whether they win today or not. If they lose, it's obvious. If they win, this was just a homer series. They had to win one in Atlanta.

Is there a reason why Kobe needed to be inserted into this? Besides, going by, ya know, what they actually did this year the most correct answer would be LeBron.
