I’m a man, maybe not the most imposing one, but a man none-the-less. Yet as I sit here typing this I can’t help but still be wiping a few tears from my eyes. An emotional moment here in my living room, I’ve never been more jealous than I am right now of the Celtics fan lucky enough to be in The Garden right now. Ray Allen has just made history, first tying and then breaking the all time 3 point record in basketball history. With former record holder Reggie Miller on hand, as well as Ray’s Mom and other family, we got to see a glimpse of emotion that we rarely see from the NBA sharp shooter.
Ray was once a co-star of Denzel Washington’s on the big-screen, but the court is truly where is finest performance is. A sure-fire Hall of Fame player, as well as H.O.F. person, Ray is close to any Boston fan’s heart. The old cliche’ “It couldnt’ve happened to a nicer guy” truly applies in this case. Congratulations to Ray Allen for this historic accomplishment, keep shooting that “J”!
