Ray Allen, Celtics Guard

" You know it was one of those Jacqueline hide games if you're watching last night outlets and at TD Banknorth Garden. Sit in my house watching the game on Comcast sports net. Part of the game was as utley and as awful as you could -- pageant. Turnovers. And lack of shooting but in the end of the game was so much on it was such a blast. And the guy who insure that it would be -- night for all of us. Is in the -- leadoff spot joining us on the team -- AT&T your world delivered as the guy who it. The game winning shot final three seconds Ray Allen is without a rat's tail Michael -- Or Greg. For part of that night that was his -- a basketball game -- you can as you can watch you guys the flatly April while last night to."

" While I knew it it was that spurt where we start turn although Burnett and they took the lead and it was not they twelve point. It was thought if there wasn't anything they did. It was just we turn although and that's when I got of the book most ardent that we --"

" and ask you about both -- three pointers in the second overtime. First they had a big shot and did a little six shooter thing."

" Like when you when you're taken at three in Gerald Wallace. "

" Was just a little bit late yeah like all you need is a couple inches. To get a shot off."

" Just one thing on the Lockheed because again refuse of the those he. -- by these so you almost area trying to stop and be too aggressive on the contest because in native. All these people there autonomy he would -- And then you -- Biden and and did not so there's always just that open space in that over the spaces openly."

" And on the second three pointer. All made a great move to the basket -- a no look pass out and all you saw that coming and not let. It seems to be a similar play Wallace had to deal with peers or had to think about yours and I'll let you a couple of just the effect."

" Well the first play it was -- was elected. Said the great screen and I got open and no doubt there. As we've all been wrong so they were worried about it equestrian units take so it was a little but it now while ago when it -- second platelet. The got all bought and all the you don't want him even you've got thirty. Points you know once and is it. So I don't -- uses standard -- in -- where myself but it is as pretty issues. We gotta get a spot be ready right sometimes it misses some. It on this some time passes at our feet sometimes overrated. But one thing that. Would be consistent -- that we got to get to where we need to be so we can do an option to -- to. Make --"

" It has been set of every great shooter that you can't have a conscience. That that no matter how you feel the ball is is is goal and are not goin' for yet. When the shot is there you don't even hesitate to take it is that at a fair assessment that when you're a great shooter and you -- are the you don't even think about any misses you might they had before the big shot."

" So I decided -- ball. That was Ubuntu. That -- But it it's also that's right which is to open situations where. I'll wait. A minute. Always know -- mr. black and never. I've never worry about this perfect shot because not all and sometimes it doesn't. When all things way out in the BB -- wouldn't need to be absolutely at all. We've looked at the but as the one bit about the malls which they are not amidst may be -- or read that. All ball much. So sure so. It's a it is that. -- and that's where outlook in the in the third early fourth and one -- it and so worked."

" When you said you know argument shots so what was that what the -- ball opposite. I was shocked to see that."

" Well it was it was it was a collect that they that came off screen. And -- when I hit the screen -- a public thank you argued ball out of local Marshal was from -- not. From so I know meet when I get the ball as -- the biggest open. -- And then I looked forced dissect it heard zero loss to lord spoke -- little -- little bit because you called on the street and malt -- And then -- eat due to the ball into that and normally that that don't meet when he told audits that at the world. And you know much guys. Not trailer beer he's department I. Got it back so it -- When I caught the ball I never really had complete control of the so -- went up. Almost and they can -- this stuff but I wasn't in it and releases are locked it and it had not went up an aspect it. Just sit there wide open exit wide open that that that these wide open and in it it was Al -- also. It threw me off but the united shooting you do at the -- not have a cut -- so -- although he got to the."

" You know when we watch your game this year just as observers I think that your having a better year than you had last year how do you feel about."

" I just need at the year that -- so we -- You know whatever that whatever that means when -- came out that. No it is frustrating it was. You used to everything and now the one in in acclimate myself and system. That popped on to a vote right now it is trying to understand in is called. What won't play that is the it's a new situation for them and it was -- so I added just so all of it matte paintings all of -- The when he attempted that way you buy this is what I need to do this they're saying it I have to do to make adjustments. Help the team when it senses so -- issue is there no it wasn't like you know outlook word about outlook be worried about scored an iPod news or ask or. This is due to think we need -- winning games and outlook word about like the anything. Anything person's all about invisible on the team is that because. Within its sensitive. Have memories the parade through downtown Boston. The first game in the ring ceremony that although things worked. Every sacrifice that each one looked impressive though the issue comes a Mobo was on wait to be more efficient. You're number is point oh will be whatever it is. Take care of the ball and be patient often with yours with Google is -- up about. On -- so oh lead nowhere at that at that in Burnett promised land that it matches."

" You mentioned field goal percentage you mentioned three if you didn't mention free throw percentage and I don't collect objects and you with this question because you missed a free throw last night so -- and ask you about that. You've missed I think thirteen or fourteen free throws all season do you approach free throws the same way you approach. Field goals and and by that I mean. When you missed a free throw do you know why you missed it."

" Yeah well. Armament -- here."

" And this is it is so ludicrous for anyone on mr. freak always remember we gave them mr. free throw. And last year Cleveland on mr. free sort of helped me you know ever thought about. After the fact and in. And even its shipment to restart the first street pro new game Cleveland. In in effect for department. We don't lose in the game but I memoranda firstly though they want it mr. rattled in went out and sold prior -- One out where about first one -- mr. and mrs. second. -- As the hours so -- it's you know to be left the line of our recent change in you know -- ball. You some -- It -- radicals often there's no. Reason to and so what I try to do is distract from source which struck -- switch it. In if you don't swish it at least is going to have a greater chance to go in because obviously the rhythm to it to all sorts which has been perfect so. Desolate I'll worry I'll work on there is dated and the free -- senator. One -- much you like it did not real -- Keep Monday expected -- the ball in the air so. For any young player to play basketball when you were the most shooting free throw it should be the first thing -- moment when you're. When you go from one -- to Mexico and its people army work on that keep the timing down you know you're -- to the ball -- in the game in. Hope to get a reply. It is noted that rhythm back and so last night from new weird Al weird because of missed -- And it was just the band -- And so that's what. Out of that the whole game -- announces some of."

" Right here pregame routine is legendary when did it start."

" Among my first year in the NBA -- Old -- he told me. That at the young passionately. We plate too many gains that you have to on the wait is he told about the rule which you need to do every single night like you have. Routine you know you can't. Just long -- just be bounces from one place to another fine which are good that indeed go to work on every single day in. So as that start thinking about that upstart relies not start watching all the players of veterans league and probably work on the move that day. The state to move that you -- and for what the shooting -- government and -- at. Point comeback can't do everything in my mind that I want to do because two people lost -- developed -- time the magnitude gym where there's nobody in network which you. To all my own. And work or whatever it half the time and the rush to do it -- about fans in the building and get their own time so the you know by my third year I had -- doubt -- in a two of the guys that will go it was. And you know we reap what shot it and as I did say that anymore statement to be. And then over time but it's cement so you know it's just like my. Studied in -- oh well what might say that my late it is. Mark my lease is that it come out which ended in in. -- at this very. There is a much shooting without -- moral without remorse spot option based on coming days Leo. Probably if we didn't play that might have looked more but if between every shot -- take. Well up next week. That's. I like it must've sent to make net while work."
