Blazers (8-9) at Celtics (13-4) 12/1

OK.  chalk that one up to "even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while"

Chalk that one up to "Ray taking his team's last shot"

Yeah, the last one was too, but somehow...somehow Ray knows he's getting it back.

[jimmehx]

WOAH what faith in Ray!

That's incredible. Absolutely cold allg ame and takes the (probable) game-winner. Wow...

[fairweatherfan]

Ok a godawful 20 minutes followed by a beautiful 30 seconds.  I'll take it...

[bello_man09]

why do they always have to do this.....

[mahonedog88]

And THAT is why Ray Allen is one of the best clutch shooters in nba history

And I'm guessing Nate was put in the doghouse tonight.  He played 4 minutes in the first half and didn't see the floor again.

!@#$@$%%$^%$^$%

WHY FEED RAY???!!!!  he's been ice cold all night!!

 

I've never been so happy to be proven wrong.   

[snively]

that weird, wet, drippin sensation is the egg sliding off your face lol

[CelticSooner]

To play pretty bad basketball most of the night and still win? C's are pretty darn good.

I've never been so happy to be proven wrong.   

I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a similar reaction after the first one.  But Ray's a shooter, and with the great ones it doesn't matter how they've been going.  Love that he's on this team. 

[Adelaide Celt]

Thank you lordy for that loose ball foul on Matthews after Ray missed his practice shot

That turned out to be crucial. Was it the right call?

[snively]

I think fatigue was a big factor down the stretch. I don't think KG, Rondo and Baby got a single breather in the 2nd half.

Edit: I should have said midway point of the 3rd.

[Tenacious D]

C's are their own worst enemy.  They dont do well in low gear, but when they put the pedal down, well, watch their dust.

[GrandTheftRondo]

The only time not to give Ray the ball at the end of the game is when he's sitting on the bench in a blowout.

This.

He's Ray Allen for crying out loud. He hits it when it matters the most.

[Kwhit10]

Ray is a guy where the result of his previous shot has no effect on his next shot.  The guy is clutch no matter how he has been playing.
