On March 14, Beijing time, it was a day worth nostalgia for fans of Celtics and Garnett, and his No. 5 jersey will be officially retired at the North Shore Garden Stadium. In this retirement ceremony, there are also many pictures that fans are looking forward to, among which the most concerned is whether Ray Allen will be present? Now that the results have been revealed, Ray Allen has arrived, and the three giants of the Green Army have finally merged again.
This time the Celtics played at home against the Lone Rangers, and after the game, the team will host the retirement ceremony of the No. 5 jersey for the famous Kevin Garnett.
From joining Boston on a trade in 2007 to leaving the Celtics in the summer of '13, although it was only 6 seasons, Garnett spent the most memorable time of his career here, lifting the championship trophy. Here Garnett also won a best defensive player, 5 times selected as an All-Star, and countless times of iron defense, countless times of roar, this jersey retirement ceremony, the roar is expected to ring again in the North Shore Garden Arena.
At the jersey retirement ceremony, a number of players who won the championship together at that time also came to the scene, including Ray Allen. In fact, after the All-Star 75 Star Ceremony, the relationship between the three giants of the Green Army has eased, and now that Arun has arrived at the scene, it also means that the three have been frozen. Interestingly, the Big Three who came to the sidelines to watch the ball didn't sit together, with Ray Allen and Perkins sitting together, Pierce and Anthony Walker sitting together, and Garnett sitting under the basket.
But anyway, at least the Big Three have finally reconciled, and speaking of this, former head coach Rivers also said: "It's a big deal, because in terms of their previous relationship, it's obviously a problem, but it looks like this wall is finally going to be torn down, which is cool." "The former disciple's jersey retirement ceremony, I believe Rivers also wants to participate, but unfortunately he is currently the coach of the 76ers, and he is about to prepare for the game against the Magic, so he can't go to Boston, which is a bit of a pity.
I don't know if the Celtics will consider retiring Ray Allen's jersey next, and he is the only one left in the big three who led the team to win the championship. Compared to Garnett, Ray Allen played only five seasons, and in the summer of 2012, he turned down a 2-year, $12 million contract offered by the Celtics and accepted the Heat's three-year , $9.5 million deal , a decision that left the Big Three apart. Fortunately, after 10 years, this contradiction was finally resolved, in fact, among the three giants of the Green Army, Ray Allen did lack enough respect.
