On August 23, Beijing time, former NBA star Kevin Garnett forwarded a group photo of the 2011 All-Star Game, and the US media quickly found that the original picture of this group photo was a four-person photo of Garnett, Rondo, Pierce and Ray Allen, but Garnett forwarded it and cut Ray Allen.

In the 2011 All-Star Game, all four Celtic stars were selected as substitutes. The East Side lost 143-148 to the West, with Rondo having 6 points and eight assists, Garnett with 4 points and five rebounds, Pierce with 6 points and two assists and Allen with 12 points and four rebounds. Inside and outside the venue, the relationship between the four people at that time was close, and they took many photos.
However, this beauty did not last long. It's no secret that other members of the Celtics and Aaron had a festival. The main reason they didn't like Aaron was that the top scorer chose to join the Heat in 2012-13 after five years of playing for the Green Army and winning a championship. In the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals, the Celtics and the Heat played seven games, and finally lost to the Heat 3-4 on aggregate. A month later, Aaron announced a signing for the Heat, an emotionally unacceptable choice in the eyes of his Green Army friends.
Allen spent two seasons with the Heat, winning another championship before saying goodbye to the NBA. After so many years, the tension between Aaron and Garnett and others has not been eased. When the US media Bleacher Report reported, he sighed: "Garnett's act of cutting Aaron in the group photo shows that his heart is still not released." ”
Garnett has played in the NBA for 21 seasons, making 15 All-Star selections, 12 all-defensive teams, and nine all-team, averaging 17.8 points, 10 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. A few days ago, the Celtics announced that they will retire Garnett's No. 5 jersey against the Lone Rangers on March 14 next year.
Allen has played in the NBA for 18 seasons, 10 all-stars and two all-team, averaging 18.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game, and 2973 three-pointers are currently ranked first in history.
