Ray Allen on LeBron fouling out

[thefalling]

It was like chess. We took their queen.

Did he really say that? :roll: I mean technically that makes sense since the queen is the most dangerous piece, but it will obviously be taken as a slam.

[RazorBaLade]

[kidachi]

I was about to make this thread..

"THEY TOOK OUR QUEEN, WE TOOK THEIR QUEEN"

that's cool, lil cheapshot.. they have bragging rights..

[Sarcastic]

Rondo too:

I don't think it was a cheapshot at all. If it was, he was also taking a cheapshot at his own teammate... For absolutely no reason.

In chess, the Queen is commonly considered the most valuable piece. Totally appropriate analogy.

[Pushxx]

Did he really say that? :roll: I mean technically that makes sense since the queen is the most dangerous piece, but it will obviously be taken as a slam.

He meant it in a good way. OP only says half the quote. Ray Allen said "They took our queen. We took their queen," or something like that.

[Eric Cartman]

The Queen is the best most versatile piece in chess. The King is pure garbage.

[PickernRoller]

He meant it in a good way. OP only says half the quote. Ray Allen said "They took our queen. We took their queen," or something like that.

Who gives a crap, it's ISH, taking things out of context is what made this forum.

[RaininTwos]

Why is OP so desperate to disparage Lebron James? I guess you've never played chess. Losing your queen is a b*tch.

[jlauber]

The Queen is the best most versatile piece in chess. The King is pure garbage.

I'm sure the "King" part will be directed at James, too. The man simply can't win.

As for the game of chess...the king is actually a coward, who lives in hiding.

[TheStarting5ive]

He said "They took our queen, we took their queen."

Very clever. But a non-story.

[DuMa]

its a simple quote that can be conjectured into many many different ways as we will soon see for tomorrow.

[TheBluest]

I don't think it was a cheapshot at all. If it was, he was also taking a cheapshot at his own teammate... For absolutely no reason.

It was a cheapshot as Lebron refers to himself as King James...wise up son and keep up with the adults

[mans1ay3r]

Wait so what did he really say?

"They took our queen, we took their queen?"

If that's what he said that's not a cheap shot. Anyone that thinks it is clearly doesn't know how to play chess.

[ihoopallday]

Lol I'm afraid of even turning on ESPN in the morning. Someone make sure Skip Bayless didn't have a heart attack.

[L.Kizzle]

Ray Allen is a very smart man, it was a very clever cheap shot. He used the analogy of chess perfectly to fit in context with LeBron's nickname King James. HE did that so he could call him a Queen, but say he was talking about chess.

[NewYorkNoPicks]

It was like chess. We took their queen.


:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

omg amazing

[SMoKe0uT]

wow more player quotes being taken out of context. he said in other words they took there best player off the floor. the Coach is king as he cant do to much but is the figurehead of the team.


fans are as bad as the media these days.

[Mr. Incredible]

Terrible move by Ray Allen. Bad Karma. Ray Allen sucks and has no room to talk.

This. In chess the Queen is the most valuable piece. And he said the same about his teammate.

lol @ you thinking it was totally centered around the actual game of chess and the piece value....it was a play on words brilliantly done by Ray gone way over your head I guess.

[ShannonElements]

He also referred to Pierce as a queen you imbeciles.

[Mr. Incredible]

lol @ you thinking it was totally centered around the actual game of chess and the piece value....it was a play on words brilliantly done by Ray gone way over your head I guess.Bad decision on his part in my opinion.

[Tenchi Ryu]

Pretty much a jab and a compliment. All chess players know that your Queen is pretty much your lifeline, and as someone said, lose that and you're fukked.

But since he always goes by KING James, Ray saying Queen was pretty damn slick
:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

[bmulls]

lol @ you thinking it was totally centered around the actual game of chess and the piece value....it was a play on words brilliantly done by Ray gone way over your head I guess.

You are reading into it too much. He called Paul Pierce a "queen" too. He meant both teams best players fouled out.

[PickernRoller]

Why so mad at the troll?

....:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: ......kids these days.

So according to Allen, they took out Queen James. I get it....

[SMoKe0uT]

You are reading into it too much. He called Paul Pierce a "queen" too. He meant both teams best players fouled out.


LOL obviously it "went over his head".

No you idiot...Paul Pierce does not refer to himself as King Pierce but instead the other refers to himself as King James

[SMoKe0uT]

Bruh you stay hating on LeBron. Too bad your Bulls are toast. Sorry.


Stay on topic! a random jab at a different team that played tonight?


wow

[TheBluest]

You are reading into it too much. He called Paul Pierce a "queen" too. He meant both teams best players fouled out.


Of course he meant that but his statement had double meaning and had Garnett/Rondo fouled out he would have probably stated the same thing....


Stans are HEATED Ray TROLLED their QUEEN

wowYou mad? :lol That dude is one of the worst posters on this forum.

didn't know that. Lebron's nick name now makes perfect sense. :applause:

Don't quote my posts, moron. You are clearly too stupid to know when you are out of your league.

It was a compliment if anything.

You mad? :lol That dude is one of the worst posters on this forum.


No what im mad at is these idiots thinking a pro athlete would say this to the media meaning to bash another player when the series is up in the air??? fighting for a spot in the finlas? you reaaaallllllyyyy think Allen is that fkin stupid??? Im convinced ppl only read what the wanted to read.

[Vienceslav]

The OP misquoting and making this into multiple page thread:
He called both Pierce(his teammate) and Lebron a queen in a chess analogy where if you lose your queen you lose your most valuable piece.

[Scholar]

OP is a ****** with a clear agenda. So apparently Ray Allen was clowning his own teammate, too, right?

:facepalm

[TheBluest]

so he called paul pierce and lebron a queen?


One is referred to as The TRUTH

One is referred to as King James


Now skillets can trump King James with Queen James for a day or three. Because if it was all about the value of a Queen then James could have easily taken that title for himself if he plays Chess while others play Checkers:coleman: :coleman:

WOW THESE ARE PRO ATHLETES COMPETING FOR IT ALL NOT YOU FRIENDS NEXT STORE WHO ACT LIKE 10 YR OLDS!!!! IF THE WANNA TAKE JABS AT EACH OTHER THEY DO IT DURING THE GAME NOT THE FKIN MEDIA!!!!


Now take a DEEP breath step back a little and rethink your angle.

Rondo on Air called them whining cry babies to Doris Burke before the game was decided. Do you honestly think the Celtics are scared of them to that degree, that they feel they have to watch what they say? I don't think so

[T-Time3]

anybody who will watch the game live on game6?
on their next home game, boston fans should have a "queen james" chants
that'd be total disrespect..... yet true and funny.
yes i find it funny
EDIT:
oh and speaking of disrespect, i remember shaq called chris jericho,christina on wwe couple years ago

celtics fans, thank me for the inspiration, and your welcome.
i'm looking forward to hear the chants at td garden

UMMMM so he was stating a fact and? how is that even remotley similar to what he said? oh wait maybe the fact part.

2 facts happened.

Ray call LBJ thier best player.

Rondo told doris how they got back in the game.


ummmm yeah ok dude.

Like i said the fans are just as bad as the media. making ish up.

More dumb logic by you....I mean Rondo's jump shot is still a work in progress but I don't think players would make it a habit should they be up on the Celtics at half and make commentary in a game stating.....

"Well we have a lead because Rondo's jumper is BROKE today"

Just because something may be fact doesn't mean it's a normal to feel free to say. If you actually watched the manner in which he said it, he was pulling no punches. He probably wanted to use the B-Word

They're not scared of this team and for 3 games FACTUALLY they've proven in it WORDS and DEEDS


GET IT!

GOT IT!

WELL GUUUUUUUOOOOOD!!

The truth of the matter is nobody here knows what Ray's true motivation was behind his analogy. So both sides need to stop acting like they know what Ray was thinking when he said it.

I agree. I watched the post-game interview and he was responding to Pierce and LeBron fouling out and he said "They took our Queen, we took their Queen." He said it without a smile, serious, no one laughed at it either. Just another case of people taking things out of context.

Its underserved cause its years and years of expectations coming up at once. And then add the fact that his fanbase has been some of the worst arrogant fans of a player in years, it makes sense why whenever he DOES fail, he has people in corners coming after him.

Does he deserve all of it? Of course not, but at the same time, some folks need a taste of humble pie at times. Lebron is just unfortunately in the crosshairs with them.

However, I think posters will one day realize how great of a player he was, and will regret bashing him. It's just my opinion. It's unfortunate the injuries that happened this postseason. I was expecting a brawl in the ECF between a healthy Bulls and healthy Heat team (with Bosh).

The only thing I got is you completely went off base of the original discussion and are now using what rondo said to support your agenda.

WTF Does the Celtics not being scared have anything to do with Allen calling James their BEST PLAYER???? Also WTF you on about Rondos Broken Jumper? Like really pulled that one outta no where. WTF????

Random as hell.

:facepalm If he said king it would've been improper analogy. If they took the King out the game the game would have to already be OVER!!!! the game still continues without the Queen. JUST LIKE THIS GAME!

Wow hard to comprehend chess isnt it LOL


OMFG players use chess analogys all the time. some of you just reach for any little thing.

[TheBluest]

Well the King is the absolute most valuable piece.

Yeah for the Heat it is but the King for the Heat is now a Queen....

[bdreason]

Game was obviously fixed.

[RedBlackAttack]

Commonly????????? WTF?
The King ends the game, so I guess technically that is the most important piece, but in terms of the versatility of the moves that the pieces can make, the Queen is the best piece on the table.

People are really reading way too much into this quote.

[Grey Dawn]

He said "They took our queen, we took their queen."

Very clever. But a non-story.

[sbw19]

goat unintended diss.

[LeFraud James]

He also referred to Pierce as a queen you imbeciles.

This is true, but Pierce isn't the one going around calling himself The King.

Beautiful analogy as the queen is the most important in a game of chess, and masterful play on words as LeBron is b*tch.

[SunsCaptain]

Saying both players are queens just means that they are both great players and losing them is losing your best piece.

What would have been a funny and proper insult would be:

"They took our queen but we took their King."

Because the game is over when the king is gone. The celtics are missing a key piece but the point is they still have players and a team.

it was a cheap shot. Why not find another analogy like taking the engine of a car. But instead he used chess coz theres a queen in it.

[CelticBaller]

Jesus :applause:

Lebron was playing more like a pawn at that point.

Nice analogy though. I like Spo's response, too. You took our Queen? Well, I'm gonna activate Bosh then.

[Teanett]

it's a classic, often-used analogy.
it comes from a standard chess move.
nothing to see, nothing chippy about it.

[Blue&Orange]

I'm sure the "King" part will be directed at James, too. The man simply can't win.

As for the game of chess...the king is actually a coward, who lives in hiding.
I guess Lebron James is in fact King james, because a coward is absolutely what he have been.

From the teaming up with Wade and Bosh, passing by his finals disappear act, ending on his fear of taking the last shot... pretty obvious by now.

I don't think it was a cheapshot at all. If it was, he was also taking a cheapshot at his own teammate... For absolutely no reason.

Wow. Just wow. It was not an insult. Idiots. :facepalm

Most of the people accusing Ray Allen of insulting LeBron James probably wear extremely loud and colourful clothing that their favourite music artists wear, complete with pouches, pockets and compartments to store their electrical devices in. They're also efficient multi-taskers, too, able to walk down the street thinking they're gods gift to the world and jacking off to the latest shock video so they can upload their reactions to the web.

[LA_Showtime]

Some of you guys are taking Ray's quote out of context. The queen is the most powerful piece on the board. It's worth 8 points. Technically the goal is to protect the king, but you can't exactly "take" the king. Think of LeBron as the queen and the Heat as the king.

Regardless, anyone who thinks Ray "dissed" LeBron is an idiot. I mean he called Pierce a queen too. If he truly meant to disrespect LeBron, then why aren't people talking about Ray's beef with Pierce?

we dont win the title in 2008 without ray he sacrificed his game the most out of those 2 for the team and it isnt even close... a guy who averaged nearly 27 a game and the most out of the big 3 the yr before changed his game to suit playing with pierce and k.g

[Killbot]

Basically an 8 page thread to try and dissect Ray's quote? :biggums:


Terrible move by Ray Allen. Bad Karma. Ray Allen sucks and has no room to talk.

I agree. But Ray is far from squeaky clean like people think lol.

People should realize KG does as much charity as Ray does. PP does a lot of charities.

PP and KG express how they feel more, but Ray is just as cut throat as them
