    It's interesting to see that he has cut out the 3pt shot out of his game nearly completely. I remember when Tony Allen started blowing up and was looking like a complete stud, then he had that tragic knee injury that derailed him a bit.

    Tony Allen is the type of player that needs to get a lot of minutes. If he's only getting a few minutes a game, he won't give you much, but as a starter I think he could be a good player. I think the Celtics may resign him and play him more as Pierce and Ray (if he comes back) get older and require more rest.

    How has he bounced back from the injury in your eyes? He seems like a useful role player.

    He's played so well that Marquis Daniels doesn't even get minutes anymore. He's the best wing defender on the team, and he's extremely active offensively. I think he has done a pretty good job on Wade.

    Yeah he's very good on defense, wonder if they'll put him on LeBron at times next series?

    Probably a little. But leBron is a little too big for him. Wade is a prefect matchup.

    So it'll be Pierce huh, maybe Marquis at times?
