Tony allen says he's a Celtic, who unfortunately, is wearing a Grizz jersey right now. Definitely a bad choice of words all around. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0mjxktIwJSY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
"I'm a celtic, but unfortunately I wear a Grizzlies jersey right now" 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.
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]." <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/aALERIngeS0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
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"?
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.
