Ray Allen helps our other offensive options score easier, should he start again?

Hey we might see Sasha or MP starting next game with injuries to ray & avery.  As long as our team wins it doesn't matter who starts.
Bradley can pressure ANY guard in the nba his footwork is that good.  He can run the fast break with rondo, really no one else on team can, we sort of do a hesitation fast break with rest of team.  He's done well and is definitely playing tough.
Ray is an offensive threat even if he isn't hitting for big numbers.  He has been playing really hard on the defensive end, driving to the hoop (which is great) and rebounding really well. 
He's done well and is definitely playing tough.
wait same line for both guys?

You're dead wrong....so assuming Bradleys healthy (which is a big if) then NO

I think the reduced defensive pressure and transition defense means that Bradley is a better option if he's able to go.

Ray helps stretch the floor certainly, but unless he gets more shots its not the same level of impact as Avery's defense.

Ray's return to starters minutes also meant his rebounding dropped off again. Too bad, I liked seeing him make it a point to attack the glass stronger when he was coming off the bench.

If Bradley can't go it should be Ray. In this series, even a hobbled Ray is better than Pietrus or Sasha. He can guard Turner, hit open shots better than either of them, and is a better decision maker with the ball.

My issue is we still treat Ray like he's the same guy as at the start of the season. Plays we run for him don't work because he doesn't get open at a high percent, eats up the clock and can be guarded by a single man. Running the offense through him doesn't work because he has trouble with good defensive pressure. He should play more like Pietrus, stand at a spot and wait for open looks.

He's got to take on a supporting role and people's expectations have to change because he can't be who he was (at least not until he gets healthy which isn't definite).
