    Tony allen says he's a Celtic, who unfortunately, is wearing a Grizz jersey right now. Definitely a bad choice of words all around.

    He killed the Celts last night late and celebrated after the Griz win so this is weird.

    I'm sure your teammates and coaching staff will be pleased to hear that lol.

    Anyone else think that camera is uncomfortably close? I was pushing my own computer back, "get off me man!" It made me claustrophobic.

    He's just keeping it real.

    No one wants to be a Grizzlie.

    Reminds me of the video below, but not near as bad.

    Allen seemed very pumped to have won the game. I'm pretty sure he's just addressing the Celtics fans with that comment and thanking them. He seemed pretty emotional about it. Kind of like "I appreciated the ovation, but unfortunately I'm not a wearing a Celtics jersey any more, I'm wearing a Grizzlies [and as such I will do my part to beat them]."

    Is not like he was forced to play for Memphis, didn't he sign there as a free agent?

    Well, I don't blame him for having that feeling. But saying it out loud in the media ...

    Hey, what would you guys think if Battier said, "I am a Rocket but unfortunately I wear a Grizzlie uniform"? :p

    If he's a Celtic, why didn't he help the Celtics win last night?

    What a liar.

    That's what the Grizzlies need! Seriously. A Celtic-minded player in the Grizzlies' rotation. Don't make too much out of this.

    I hope media makes a big deal out of it and creates turmoil in the Grizzlies locker room. :grin:

    ... but it's the Grizzlies, so they're not. :(
