Well, its official. The big 3 era is now over with Ray off to Miami.

I must say, the future for the Celtics squad does look bright though so it doesn't feel that sad.

It was a heck of a ride.

Bring on the new "big three" of KG, Paul, and Rondo.

It was over before this because Ray has been a glorified role player. But in the literal sense, yea, it's now really over.

  That era started in 2010.

This.

I was just about to post something along those lines.

I'm still holding out hope that twitter accounts were hacked...

It was a great run. I've never enjoyed any team's success quite like this current run.

Oh well, it would have been nice to have him back but Avery Bradley can play plenty of minutes now and bring that sufficating defense! Remember how good the team did when Ray was out?

Pierce still here, Garnett still here, and Rondo still here.

We got our Big3. Ray was weak link anyway.

Actually the Big Three era ended when Bird Retired. Only one of these new "big three" are actually BIG.

I'm really sad about this. Ray is one of my all time favorite players and having him join the Heat hurts even more. But now we won't have to hear about him being mad coming off the bench.
