Kevin Garnett Doesn’t Talk To Ray Allen Anymore


Ray Allen used to wear this. Now he wears this. Considering those two teams are only a few months removed from battling for a spot in the NBA Finals, one might wonder what Allen’s former teammates in Boston – especially the more, ahem, intense ones – reacted to him skipping town to join the defending champs.

And, predictably, Kevin Garnett was asked about just this today at the Celtics’ training-camp-opening media day. In response, he said all he needed to say:

Honestly, when it comes to the legendary maniacal intensity of Kevin Garnett, this takes a backseat to certain other moments. He’s not wishing Allen any ill will. But it’s an effective reminder that Garnett’s an insanely cold-blooded competitor all the same. Allen was a teammate. Now he’s the competition. As such – no more friendly chit-chat. Doesn’t mean he hates the guy. But being close with him on a personal level? Maybe some other time. And definitely not when the Celtics and Heat play. Think we might see that clip above get replayed a few times when the teams meet up?
