Jesus!

Ray Allen #20 of the Boston Celtics reacts while taking on the Los Angeles Lakers in Game Five of the 2008 NBA Finals on June 17, 2008 at TD Banknorth Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.

So far it's a good day for the C's. First the news that KG will be playing tonight vs the Lakers after sitting out two games with the flu. Now, Ray Allen gets the nod to replace Jameer Nelson in the All-Star game. Thank god. This is the third year in a row that Ray has replaced an injured player on the roster. Last year Shuttlesworth filled in beautifully scoring 28 points, 14 of which came in a two and a half minute span, while helping the East to victory. This is Allen's sixth consecutive All-Star selection and ninth overall. The Boston shooting-guard is averaging 18ppg this season while helping Boston to an NBA's best 41-9 record.  Now hopefully KG, Jesus, and the Truth can beat the Lake Show tonight on their home floor.
