Reunited: Paul Pierce Recorded Kevin Garnett Talking To Ray Allen For The First Time In 10 Years
Ray Allen joined the Boston Celtics in 2007 in hopes of creating something special, and he didn’t disappoint as they managed to clinch a title in 2008 against the Los Angeles Lakers. However, a crucial decision in Allen’s career sparked the end of an era for the Celtics and their ‘Big 3’ of Garnett, Pierce and Allen.
Come summer of 2012, Ray Allen, who was bothered by previous trade rumors and contract dispute in Boston, made a decision to join their Eastern Conference rival Miami Heat, who at that time, were obviously the team to beat and the biggest roadblock to his former Celtics team.
Allen’s decision didn’t sit well with his Boston teammates, particularly Kevin Garnett. Now, ten years later, this might have finally changed.
During the All-Star weekend in Cleveland, where both Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett, alongside their former teammate Paul Pierce, were honored as members of the NBA’s 75 team, Garnett and Allen were seen talking to each other for the first time since Allen left for Miami.
Paul Pierce recorded the conversation while signing ‘reunited, and it feels so good…’
