He really is .... he is not adding any assists ar rebounds really- and scoring o=is not all that great- so why 40 minutes a night/? Why not a little hustlin tony allen or a lil more posey? Give Ray 10 mins off each night more? I just need a good answer and I'll be ok ...lol!
Go Celts!

i like ray getting minutes, but i don't see why posey isn't in the game more at the end of games

he's hit at least 5-6 big shots at the end of games in these playoffs

Ray's always a very serious threat on the perimeter, whether he's hitting his shot or not. It gives a very different dynamic to the offense, and a little more space for everybody to operate. That will all go away with Tony in the lineup. At SOME point, he has to break out of this funk ... I think he will, but he has to be on the floor, getting his touches for it to happen. He's too important to give up on now.

Wally is a huge liability on defense playing at SG. Even at SF he is a bad defender, but at SG his slowness makes it hard to guard the opposing players . What bothers me is that Ray can't take advantage of this. There's no way he should be playing so poorly against that bad of a defender. It would be nice to see Tony get some minutes because there's no way Wally would be able to defend him, plus Tony would defend Wally better.

Ray was MOST effective this season when he had rest.
