For all the hate he generates, Grayson Allen is legit NBA player.

Hot take.

I’ve always liked Grayson Allen, since watching him at Duke and I was hoping that the C’s would draft him. Has he acted immature in the past, yes. Dude competes, though. He plays hard.

The guy injured Alex Caruso earlier in the season. That guy plays very dirty don’t understand Celticsblogs infatuation with him.
Yeah, he's not "immature". That is an absolutely infantilising way to gloss over his horrible nature.

Nobody has questioned his ability to play basketball. He's just a garbage person

Well, his teammates would disagree with you. Giannis went on and on about Grayson during his postgame interview earlier today.

“He’s humble, he’s hungry, he plays with a chip on his shoulder. Plays hard every single night defensively and offensively. No matter how the game goes, he keeps us accountable. He knows that we need him and he’s a great player. He wants the ball. Wants to be the guy that makes shots and make plays. He’s not scared to make plays. He fits in really well with us.”

None of the things Giannis said preclude him from being a jackass with an extensive history of dirty play. 

Be a fan if you want.  I'd much rather win without his bulls***.

So now you have to actually roll your ankle on someones foot on a close out for it to be flagrant? Are they just making this crap up as they go now or what?

And what about the "high five" foul call last night? Why was that not a foul all season and then as soon as playoffs start and its KD on the receiving end its now a foul
everyone got so sensitive after 9-11... thanks alot bin laden

What a shock! His current teammate sticks up for him! I really thought Giannis would actually come out and call him scum after Allen dropped 27 ::)

Wonder which players on our team will be stopping Grayson Allen and Jrue Holiday? They'll be tough assignments and are much better casts than the Nets.

Sorry, when the heck did Grayson Allen and Jrue Holiday become harder assignments than Kyrie Irving and Seth Curry? Middleton is probably going to miss a significant chunk of our series with them.

Been watching Denver-GSW off and on -- just waiting for the Warriors to take it. Still think they will but Denver's been holding to this 8-12 point lead just about all game.  Still feels like no way GSW doesn't take over.

His teammates have liked him everywhere he has been, both in college and pro’s. He’s an irritant like a Draymond Green. GS fans love Green opposing teams hate him, same goes for Grayson Allen. You can dislike him if you want, but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a good player.

I don't think Draymond Green was ever this dirty like Grayson Allen.

Should have tuned in for the Warriors/Nuggets game.

I doubt anything Green did in that game pales to what Allen did to Caruso.

Green does far less to put opposition players in danger. Allen has no issues with doing that, however.

I hope he has a very brief career.
