It really is time to bury the hatchet...Geeze, Danny tried trading Ray Allen a bunch of times---No C's fan should hate on Ray.
We waited 22 years to finally win another Championship, now it's been almost another 10--Ray Allen was crucial to Banner 17-!
Because he deserve it, Ainge saw his juda nature and is proved right
Ainge is as much a "Judas" as Ray.
In other words, not at all. They're both businessmen.
Judas to whom? To Ray? Sure.
But you know there's apples here, and some oranges there.
exactly. I hate the comparison of gm to player. The players are the face of the squad, the gm is a back office guy trying to make trades.
So?
Neither player no GM must show "loyalty".
Danny can trade anyone on the team at any time, and he's done so. Antoine, KG, Pierce, Perk, IT. It doesn't matter how much a player has given to a franchise, he's a commodity to be evaluated and potentially traded. Danny doesn't care about emotional bonds, either to players or fans.
Similarly, Ray is allowed to make a cold business decision. He doesn't owe an ounce of loyalty beyond his contractual obligations.
Neither is a "Judas". The guys who demand trades while still under contract? They're the traitors, because they walked out on their obligations. They signed a contract and refused to honor it in good faith. But free agents? Wherever they go, it's their right.
