If you watched Ray before he shot his last round you could tell he was feeling the pressure.  He looked a little under the microscope.

Quote from Paul on the subject:

"If we all went up to a podium, James would have gotten gold, I would have gotten silver, and Ray would have gotten bronze."


He said this while laughing through most of it and adding dramatic pauses.. haha

Oh come on.  Like Kobe would get cheered here?

The boos are compliments.
Yup

You didn't see that coming? He and Ray should get booed. They play for Boston and it was in LA.
One guy screamed "wheelchair" too.

I almost wish he'd come out in a wheelchair just as a joke.

I'm more surprise that any fans in LA cared that much.

I wasn't surprised but I thought it was pretty funny that they cheered for Ray probably louder than anyone else. And then Pierce called them out on it. How do they not boo both?

Yeah we would boo Kobe but any other Laker we would boo just as loud (FIsher, Artest, Pau, Odom etc.)

Pierce had a pretty funny comment about that point. 

Ray Allen is one of the most respected players in the league (by fans and players alike).  This transcends his "Celtic-ness".  As great as Pierce is, he has done a lot of things that get under people's skin over the years. 

Yup

Most people don't like Pierce. As a matter of fact, every NBA fan I know other than myself hates him.  I hear it from them all the time.
