Jarrett Jack Calls Ray Allen ‘A Traitor’ For Signing With Heat

A business…..Lebron did too and it worked out well. Once these guys get rich they shoot for the ring…….Who wants sto be another Barkely, Ewing, Malone, etc. great but NO RING.

I hate it when the Owenr and mgmnt can move players and nobody talks of disloyalty or mention the word traitor. But, when the player makes a move thats best for him and his…..you get dumb tweets and words from theses fans that are FANATICS.

I think you and every body else needs to mind there business…this is ray allens life hater’s

what does allen leaving boston have to with you?

Wow Allen feels disrespected? As a fan, I feel screwed. I hope he regrets his decision to join heat as much as I regret his decision to leaVe Boston.

Why do people keep bringing up the fact that Ray was being dangled by the Celtics in trade talks? Rondo was once dangled too and he didn’t let his feelings get hurt. Pierce was also dangled and he didn’t cry about it. Fact is that Ray is now showing how soft he is in being upset in the natural business of the game. Also don’t forget that he also let one bad relationship with one teammate drive him out as well. Yea, some teammate Ray is to turn his back on the rest of his teammates because of one teammate he didn’t like. Now I wish Ray the best of luck because I don’t wish bad things to happen to anyone, but I sure have lost some respect for him in his reasons to why he left.

Unbelievable – #1 off basketball is a business – plain and simple. if anyone is ignorant enough to love and be passionate about the player rather than the team; well then you are gonna think a whole lot of people are traitors in your lifetime. #2 – the purpose of the players who play because they 1rst love the game – will take less money to get the real goal – the ring/title. those that play for the money will take the money. #3 – refer to #1 and remember the owners, gm’s, etc always remember it is a business. #4 – love the game but never forget the NBA game is always and foremost a business.

It is sad that Jarrett Jacks can’t respect Ray’s decision, by minding his own affairs, didn’t his mother teach him that some thoughts are best kept to one self. Kind of like the Calvs getting a championship before the heat!!
ATL

Ray is gone and based on what I’ve seen reported; GOOD!!
Teams can trade when the want, bench you, release you/ amnesty you(but still pay you). When a player is a FREE AGENT he can sign wherever he wants as well!! So it is what it is!!
Ray is a great player but I’m not feeling his motives. The Celtics were gonna trade Paul Pierce, Rondo, KG & RAY ALLEN at some point; which WE all know. So Ray stop acting you wee the only one. They actually did trade Kendrick Perkins!! Bad move on Ainge’s behalf!! I have know facts what went on between Ray and Rondo as well as Rondo and KG! But once again Ray it wasn’t just you but KG got over before 36 million was offered so why can’t you RAY??!! For the record the Celtics went for a commitment from KG – FIRST!! Why not??? The went after Ray Allen 2nd – 2 years 12 million total w/o the no trade clause!! Later the NO TRADE CLAUSE WAS OFFERED!! Whether because Miami offered it or not!! I’m pretty sure his Agent communicated this was a must!! ONLY Nowitzki and Kobe; NOBODY ELSE!! Not even LBJ, D WADE or D ROSE!! But Ray good negotiating!!! GET IT RIGHT PEOPLE – THE CELTICS PRESENTED RAY ALLEN BEFORE JASON TERRY WAS APPROACHED or even offered a deal!! So was again Ray; C’MON SON!??!!!!!
Here’s the kicker – how does it look with RAY having a problem with the Celtics pursuing KG before him or him (RAY ALLEN) at the same time?????? Ray has issues; as GREAT as a player he is/was!!! Remember the Perkins trade was done on the low and although Danny Ainge can do what he wants it was communicated back then that the BIG 3 wanted in on what movements might take place. And they were that’s WHY ALL THE SUPOSED TRADES DIDN’T go down!! They all spoke up for one another whether it was Ray Allen or Rondo; which happened to be the most talked about! Even Doc Rivers went to bat for Ray and whoever!!
I clearly said earlier a player can go where he chooses when he is a free agent but Ray should of or could of talked with his fellow teammates! Don’t no body sit here and tell me that you ain’t see HARMONY with the Celtics on that floor ORCHESTRATED BY RAJON AMONGST EVERYONE!!!
You can’t get that everywhere Ray!! You left a team down 3 KEY pieces ( Jeff Green, Bradley & Wilcox) that LOST to your NEW (down 1 guy half of Celtics vs Heat series) team by 1 game in the best of 7!! C’mon SON??!!
The YANKEES VS RED SOX is a GREAT RIVALRY!!
People don’t discount the CELTICS VS ( LBJ (cleveland)- D Wade (Miami pre LBJ/Bosh) present Miami & Atlanta as the mini rivalries that they are or have become over the last 5 years!! Because of KG – PIERCE – RAY is the reason DWADE -LBG – BOSH came together!!!
So good luck Ray Allen and the Miami Heat because the Celtics will be there in the Eastern Conference finals looking for YOU!!!!

Jarret Jack-ass just want to be famous… BTW.. who wants to hear your comments/ideas? NONE.. Get a LIFE hehehe

what is the name for managers when they shipped perkins to okc without warning.Is it only the players that do not have any freedom. grow up my friend .Ray allen is a mature man he does what is good for himself and hios family.If he feels the heat is going to treat him better than the celtics he is right to earn your living in dignity and respect is a blessing

Man have to mind thier business and concentrate only on thier family and happiness,to get involved or to comment on another mans destiny is wrong at the end of Mr. Rays playing it is important to do it his way,as far as friends the real ones will understand without question and still be friends.Mr J we r still waiting on ur do u have a ring man group,until then would u mind a real ballplayer i mean a real hallofame carry on a most enjoyable to all of us carrier thank u Mr J.

Many people lost their respect for Ray Allen.. including me.He left the Cs for less? why is that? and joined last seasons Cs tormentor Heat? why not go to other teams? why the heat for less? whats wrong with you Ray feels like your taking revenge on the Celtics or something like that…they loved you there man and you leave them. Ray Allen will not be a Hall of Famer..He will be in the Hall of shame…. shame on you Ray but have a good day…..

whoever the individual was that said there is no loyalty in basketball anymore. my question for him would be where have you been? as far as loyalty goes, there never has been any. if anything it is mgmt and the ownership that is not loyal to you. as for lebron james being a traitor, lebron james did exactly what he was mandated to do. he honored his contract with cleveland; he showed up when his presence was required. and he was never in any kind of trouble with the authorities and yet you “numb nutts” want to call the man a traitor. fast forward to a yr later and now it is ray allen that is getting dumped on. you r mad that miami has a world class front office that is on the level with l.a., chicago, and boston and it just eats you a-holes up. well get used to it because mimia is gonna win #3 this coming season. u can start to get mad all over again!!! HEAT in 12-2013!!!

Hold on for a moment, is this a Hall Of Famer questioning another Hall of Famer…..until then shut up !!!!!!!! Who do u play for anyway ?????

How dare you call the 3 point record holder a traitor. Just because he switches to a way better team does not mean he is a traitor. You are nobody to judge Ray Allen or anybody else. You still have a lot to learn youngblood.

Im a diehard celtics fan…yes ray allen is a traitor. Thanks for helping, being the third best player , winning us a chip. But u dont take less money to join a hated rival. Your brothers rondo and garnett, at least garnett is his brother, did not even shake these guys hand, and you join them. You ray will forever be looked at differently. To you people who say well they tried to trade him, EVERY player names comes up n trades, even pierce and rondo. And didnt trade him and offered a no trade clause, 6 milly a year for two. Ray ive lost all respect bro, and i really liked the celtics bc south carolina was represented well. Damn ray, damn

Regardless of what anyone says, Ray’s move was extremely selfish and is a perfect example of players who only think about themselves and who take the easy way out. He could’ve grinded it out with the team that has been so loyal to him. LeBron did it because there wasn’t any REAL chance of them winning. Ray could’ve possibly done it with the Celtics next season, and if not, you’d still see #20 in the rafters. The Celtics even doubled the offer! He left the fans, more money, and most importantly his Family in the Boston Celtics, to get an easy ring. Selfish and a Traitor. Have fun in South Beach.

Ray wants another ring, he knows where to get it at! We are happy to have him on #TeamHeat welcome Ray Allen.. They did the same ish to Lebron James..SMH @ u ppl! Respect this man he put in work in the NBA..and will go into the hall of fame as one of the greatest that has ever done it! and WTF is Jarrett Jack again? ok moving on!

IT SAYS IN THE BIBLE, IT IS BETTER TO BE THOUGHT OF AS FOOL, THEN TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND LEAVE NO DOUBT. MR JACK YOU LEAVE NO DOUBT!!!!!!

1st off, I have no idea who J.J is !!!!! He will never have that dilemna. 2nd the NBA is a business, players shouldn’t have to be bound and gagged to one team until they retire. As much as the fans lovetheir star player/s, in a free market they should and have the right to play for whomever they chose.

Fans should appreciate the players for the times and memorable games they gave their teams, and let them move on if they so chose.

Ray is a bad guy. Celtics gave him more money than other teams and a clause of no trade and he signfor less for their hated rival to be the sixth men.

Jarett Jack or whatever his name is.. he is just jealous to Ray Allen because nobody offered him anything in NBA. even Ray’s age he has still received respect from a highly contending NBA team because of his real talent… but J Jack even on his very young age nobody has ever offered him anything even if he will become a Free Agent in the future because he needs more practice to be in the league with Ray Allen….

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Being a Heat fan…I still would have liked to see Ray finish his career in Bean Town. But trust and believe I am stoked that he decided not to. People can talk about loyalty if they want to. They can call Ray a traitor or whatever. Bottom line though…Ray is going to do whats best for him and his family. Obviously its about the rings. I would choose Miami or Boston (LBJ and Wade over PP/RR and KG). Thats my personal opinion. Others are going to differ, but at the end of the day….Allen has put himself in the best position for himself and his family. That is where his loyalty is.

I’m tired of hearing that Ray Allen is a traitor. Im pretty sure he’s not the only player to leave a team and go to another team. The same thing happended when Lebron left Cleveland to go to Miami. Fans were saying that he’s a traitor because he left. You should be happy with what he did for the celtics. Plus the celetics have been trying to trade him for two years!! Ray Allen is just trying to get another ring before he retires. I bet he feels like he has a good chance of getting it with the heat and the end of the day it’s his decision. We as fans can say whatever we want to about his decision but it’s not going to change the fact that he left the celetics. He probably doesn’t even care what people are saying. He’s doing what he wants to do and what help him get one more ring.

As everyone should know. This is a business. Employees makes decisions to advance their lives and career. I believe the writing was on the wall long before the decision was made to commit to Miami. You do not hear words like tradition and legacy. You hear instead, words like business, entertainment, and profits.
