 Ray Allen: Kill the label
End Big 3 talk, says guard O nce and for all, Ray Allen would like to retire the title Big Three. It belongs to someone else.

More Celtics: Players Forced to Acknowledge Scalabrine, Pollard?
Published 6/19/2008 by nation_of_islam_sportsblog (noreply@blogger.com) at Nation Of Islam Sportsblog

trophy_wruss__kevin.jpg Did anyone else notice how often Bill Russell was included in the victory photos from the Garden on Tuesday night? The legacy has passed from Arnold to Bill. As the reigning Godfather of the Celtics, with his 11 rings, "Russ" performed admirably; inspiring Kevin Garnett to take his team mates with him, not by pulling them along, but by putting his arms around them and guiding them. How perfect, from the man who has lived all his life by the Ubuntu code.
