I think there is an obvious trend right now in the NBA....pack the top teams with as many All-Stars as you can to win a championship. I cant blame teams for doing this, but it will get to the point where there are only 4-5 good teams and the rest are just okay. Sort of disgusts me though. Look at a team like the Thunder who have a "Big 3" but who did it naturally (by losing and drafting). They came from nothing and are one of the top teams in the league. Sad how there is such an immediate need to win a ring ASAP. Granted I understand that, but what happened to taking the time to build a team rather than BUY a team?

As far as Allen leaving, I dont blame him either. He probably only has a couple years left and wants to win another ring. But as DJohn said, he lost his chance of becoming a Celtic legend/great. All these players grew up with the goal of winning a ring. He already has one and I would have thought he would have retired a Celtic, but guess not.
