Ray dropped some social media shade after seeing his ex-teammates - Kevin Garnett, 40, Paul Pierce, 49, Rajon Rondo, 31, Kendrick Perkins, 32, and Glen Davis, 31 - get together for a mini reunion on Kevin's Area 21 on May 8, according to CBS Sports. The former Celtics all echoed earlier comments. "At this point in time, I don't think it's on nobody here to break the ice", Perkins said. "We did form a family". We won a championship. "My two cents, when Ray chose to go to the Heat, I feel like he moved on".
"I was initially hurt by the whole way everything went down".
"Everybody's asking us, 'Where's Ray?' People don't understand that this is real life for us", he said. Just moments later, Pierce returned to the court, and played the rest of the game. And I just figured if it was me leaving or KG leaving, then I would have been like, 'Rondo, Perk, Baby, this is what I've been thinking about'. "It felt like a sour breakup". Most key members were there except part of the big 3, Ray Allen.
On Tuesday, Allen responded to his former teammates - specifically Rondo - by posting a picture on Facebook of Allen bodying Rondo and the Celtics with the Miami Heat, with a simple caption: "The power to push limits". But Allen's publicist told ESPN's Rachel Nichols that his account was hacked, and Facebook unverified the page.
In June of 2012 - weeks after the Heat knocked the Celtics out of the playoffs - Allen took less money than Boston offered to join James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami.
Former Boston Celtics speak on 'sour breakup' with Ray Allen
My unsolicited advice to Allen's former teammates? Their side of the story essentially boils down to this: They aren't mad that Allen chose to leave the Celtics for the Heat, but that he didn't give them advance warning before going.
"It nearly felt like you're married, and you come home and the wife and the kids and the clothes and everything is out the house, you didn't get a note or nothing", Pierce said of Allen's decision to spurn a larger contract from the Celtics.
Beyond that, a mature person would reach out to Allen. Damn. Calling your teammates, who you won the 2008 National Basketball Association championship with, limited?
We'll see if anything else happens.
"At the end of the day I feel like time heals all wounds", Perkins said.

Comey was asked if he was looking into whether FBI agents may have leaked information about the Clinton investigation. The phony.Trump/Russia story was an excuse used by the Democrats as justification for losing the election.
