Just a thought what if Boston does a S&T with Allen?

Ray Allen has not had much interest. When Chad Ford listed him in his top ten list of free agents, it only went to show how shallow the pool is.

He hasn't had much interest because of his ridiculous asking price atm.

Shades of John Starks, a guy with diminished skills asking far more than he was worth. He never returned to the NBA.

I just don't get this trade scenario. Yes, Barbosa lost playing time and seemed to take a step back. However, we are going to need all the scoring we can get this year. Not to mention that Barbs doesn't have a huge contract and he wouldn't be a huge salary cap relief either.

Stupid trade IMO.

I always think of Sprewell when it comes to pricing yourself out of the league. I hadn't realized that Starks did the same thing.

Ray Allen at age 45 will still be a better player than John Starks ever was.
