Look at the list of players who have won rings and look at the list of players who have their jersey retired. One is a far more significant achievement. It's not even close.
Of course KG would have probably had his jersey retired anyway. He'll probably have his jersey retired by two teams.
I wonder how many kids that started watching ball a couple of years ago even know that KG played for the Wolves lol
Come on man, with all respect, that's dumb to say. What about the kids that started watching ball just because of the Big 3 in Miami, or LeBron, and think Ray Allen is the **** from the 3 line, do they even know he played for Seattle, or the Bucks? Back when he was for them what KG was to the Wolves.
Back on topic, Ray Allen can win a championship with the Heat, but the Heat to retire his jersey is just dumb. Boston wouldn't do it either, I think. So, if Ray wants his jersey retired, that's fine. But even if he wins another chip with Miami, to me, not being a fan of either, KG's retired jersey with Boston > Ray's jersey retired with whatever team + 2 rings.
