How did Ray Allen offend Rondo?

10:09am, 3 June 2025【Basketball】

As mentioned above, one of the most critical factors that caused Ray Allen to leave Boston in 2012 was his disagreement with Rajon Rondo. Rondo not only disliked Ray Allen, but even pulled Bradley, Perkins and others to form the "Inverted Ray Allen" and isolated Ray Allen off the court. He deliberately did not pass the ball to Ray Allen on the court. The contradiction between the two was almost irreconcilable. Then the question arises. How did Ray Allen, who was nicknamed "Gentleman Sword", offend Rondo?

The fuse of the feud between Ray Allen and Rondo, Padrick Perkins, who was retired, revealed in person that Perkins retired in 2018 and joined BIG 3 in 2019. In 2020, he went to ESPN as a commentator. As soon as he started, it was Ray Allen who voted in favor of Rondo and Chris Paul.

After the end of the 2010-2011 season, Chris Paul, the Hornets' star, was put on the shelves, which caused crazy snatch from various teams. So the question is, what level of player Paul was in 2011?

was 26 years old at the time, at its peak. He basically averaged 20+10 in his previous six years of career. He was selected as the All-Star four times, won the assist king, three steal kings, three times, and three times the best defensive team. In the regular season MVP selection in 2008, he lost to Kobe at second place with an extremely weak disadvantage. Paul's strength back then can be said to be serious and the first point guard in the league was eliminated. Because Deron beats Paul, Paul beats others...

Paul: Deron, you stand up first.

Dron: What's the matter?

Paul: I want to say that everyone here is happy!

Dron: It's so fun, I want to play too, others stand up first, Paul, sit down...

Paul was put on the shelves, which naturally caused crazy snatch from various teams. Celtics general manager Danny Angie is no exception. He is planning to use Rondo + two first-round draft picks to get Paul over. Rondo is one year younger than Paul and one year later into the NBA. He has played in the Celtics for five years and is gradually reaching the peak, and he can contribute 10 points and 11 assists per game.

However, those strong teams in the NBA who are determined to win or defend their titles generally dislike large-scale transformation of the team's lineup to avoid turmoil. Angie was not sure about using Rondo to exchange Paul, so he found the three giants of the Celtics at that time, Pierce, Garnett and Ray Allen, secretly held a small meeting to ask them about their views on the deal. At the

, Pierce and Garnett clearly expressed their opposition. They believed that Rondo had truly integrated into the team and was an indispensable brain for the team on the court. Moreover, they had won the championship. Rondo had successful experience, so it was not recommended to trade. However, when Angie asked Ray Allen about his opinion, Ray Allen considered the team's interests and indicated that the transaction was feasible.

There is no airtight wall in the world, and soon this incident came into Rondo's ears. Rondo was furious and rushed directly into Angie's office, yelling in anger -

What do you mean I add two draft picks for Paul! Shouldn't it be Paul who added two draft picks to replace me!

Therefore, Rondo and Ray Allen's Liangzi were considered to be formed, and Paul was also shot for no reason and was pulled on the blacklist by Rondo.

So since the 2011-2012 season, the relationship between Ray Allen and Rondo has been somewhat abnormal.

If you search for some of Rondo's god-level assists, you will find that many of his balls were thrown to Ray Allen on the outside, such as fancy passing, jumping up and shaking two or three consecutive times and finally throwing to Ray Allen outside the three-point line, and the layup that attracts three people to double-team without looking at people passing to Ray Allen on the outside, etc.

fans enjoyed it, but in fact you will find that these balls are actually Rondo is desperate and has no helpless choices under the offense and passing route. It is also due to Rondo's skillful passing skills and a very broad vision, so he has repeatedly contributed famous scenes of god-level assists. In other words, if he has a second solution, he will not choose to pass the ball to Ray Allen at all.

Rae Allen was very distressed. He kept reporting to Danny Angie and Doug Rivers that Rondo did not pass the ball to him, which caused Rondo to hold grudges. So how did Doug Rivers and Danny Angles do it?

At first, Doug Rivers was also very dissatisfied with Rondo not passing the ball to Allen. Nowadays, fans always play tricks on the fact that Old Li was reversed several times in the playoffs, but in fact, Old Li is serious and has the goods in his stomach. Can't Lao Li tell which ball should be passed to and who it is passed to? During that time, Rivers also had verbal conflicts with Rondo several times, but Rondo still ignored it and was independent because behind him, there was support from Danny Angie.

In the conflict between Ray Allen and Rondo, Anji was on Rondo's side from beginning to end. In fact, this is not surprising. In the eyes of people like Anji, it doesn't matter who is right or wrong. What is important is who has a stronger strength, who has the greatest impact on the team, and who has a higher trading value. In other words, the stability of the team is more important than personal justice. Rondo was the first-line point guard of the championship team back then, and the trading value is immeasurable. Ray Allen is already Lian Po old. Even though there was no conflict between Ray Allen and Rondo in the past few years, Anji wanted to trade Ray Allen several times.

Over time, Doug Rivers also compromised, so the question arises, how do other players in the team take the team in the conflict between Ray Allen and Rondo?

You may think that Rondo is a famous bad temper in the league, and Ray Allen is the gentleman sword of the famous Manchu League. Besides, Ray Allen was wronged, so it must be that most people are standing in the team..

is a big mistake!

At that time, except for a few temporary workers who were unwilling to get involved, most of the others, no, should be everyone, supported Rondo.

The origin of Aaron Ray Allen is different from many black people in the league. His father is a technician of the US Air Force. Aaron Ray Allen was born in an air force base in the United States. Although Aaron Ray Allen ran around with his parents since childhood and moved to three or four countries, his family conditions were still quite wealthy, so he received a good education since he was a child.

You can see from your interests and hobbies that other black buddies who climbed up from the bottom generally like luxury cars, big gold chains and small watches, nightclubs, and fun. Ray Allen likes to read, music, and plays the piano, especially keen on teaching and educating people. If the NBA hadn't delayed him, he might have gone to college to teach.

So from the root, Ray Allen and other buddies in the team, such as Pierce, Garnett, Perkins, etc., could not pee in a pot.

In fact, in the beginning, in order to maintain the stability of the team, Pierce and Garnett regarded Ray Allen as their buddy and tried to maintain and deal with the bad relationship between Ray Allen and Rondo. Both sides said good things, but Ray Allen did something in the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals, which made his relationship with Pierce and Garnett extremely tense.

The Celtics' opponent in this year's Eastern Conference Finals is the Miami Heat. The match between the old and new giants has attracted a lot of attention. This round of the series is the highest ratings in the entire playoffs. Yes, it is higher than the Heat's Thunder in the Finals. Therefore, TV stations such as ESPN, ABC, and TNT have sent elite broadcasting and commentary teams, and reported them in seven games.

The Celtics were already at the end of the Big Three, and the window period for winning the championship was gradually closing. They realized that there was not much time left for them. After losing to the Mavericks last year, the three giants formed by the Heat were holding their breath and swearing to prove themselves. Therefore, the two teams played on the court just like their enemies, and they were merciless in action, and the atmosphere was extremely tense and depressed!

But in this situation, Ray Allen talked and laughed with LeBron James, Dwayne Wade and others on the opposite side while the free throws, which caused extreme dissatisfaction among Pierce, Garnett and Rondo. After the Celtics lost the tiebreak battle, at the post-match press conference, Pierce's sentence "Not everyone is as eager for victory as Kevin and I" directly pushed Ray Allen to the forefront.

However, at this time, Ray Allen has not broken up with Pierce and Garnett. What really makes Pierce and Garnett resentful towards Ray Allen was that Ray Allen transferred to the Miami Heat who had just defeated his low-paying without notifying anyone.

In fact, Ray Allen lived a very uncomfortable life in the last two years in the Celtics. On the court, Ray Allen not only asked to play a substitute for the young Bradley, but also suffered from cold violence from Rondo. Off the court, before the end of the transaction every year, Anji had to go to the trading market with Ray Allen's name to see if he could get it back. After the end of last season, Ray Allen's contract expired. Everyone thought that Anji would continue to offer a contract of no less than 8 million to Ray Allen, who was 14+3+3, but in the end, Anji only offered him 12 million for two years, with an average salary of only 6 million.

When Allen announced that he would join the Heat for 9.5 million in three years, everyone in the Celtics was blown up because Allen did not tell anyone that he was going to the Heat in advance, and even Doug Rivers didn't know that this was obviously anger. In the eyes of the Celtics players at that time, Allen's behavior was dissatisfied with them and dissatisfied with the management. To put it bluntly, it was surrendering to the enemy!

Danny Angie knew that he had treated Ray Allen badly, so he still kept a little decent speech - I didn't know he was going to the Heat, he didn't notify me. To be honest, I'm not very happy, because in addition to the Celtics and the Heat, there are 28 alternatives in the league, but he chose the team that eliminated us last season...

And the players under the Celtics at that time were not so polite to speak. Pierce publicly accused Ray Allen of betrayal of betraying his brotherhood and never talking to him. Garnett said that he had deleted Ray Allen's phone number and would not answer his phone number himself, while Rondo said that he had seen clearly that Ray Allen was like this, an untrustworthy person.

Amid the clamor and opposition, only Doug Rivers sent a brief blessing to Ray Allen - hoping that his next career will get better and better.

See, what is emotional intelligence? Why is Lao Li? He has such a good reputation in the circle, and he has a tight grasp of the worldly style.

After that, Ray Allen, Pierce, Garnett, Rondo Perkins and others seemed to have become opposites. With me or not, if he or not, if he or not, Pierce, Garnett retired, Ray Allen did not come, Ray Allen retired, and these two people did not come. Even the Celtics held a 2008 championship rally, but Ray Allen did not notify Ray Allen...

However, the NBA is quite good at making trouble. Pierce and Bosh were selected in 2021. In Hall of Fame, the NBA office, these people in the NBA office didn’t know what they were thinking, so they put the positions of Ray Allen and Garnett together in the audience...
