He had a no-trade clause.
This.
Ray always been a bytch though. Loved him at UConn though.
He had a no-trade clause.
No. They offered him a no-trade clause after they already burnt that bridge.
According to who?
Also, although Allen may have had a limited role, he could himself could have determined the limitations of his role through his production.
Chances are, if Boston was gonna give him $12 Million, he would have been utilized.
He's just a hoe. Plain and simple.

He was offered a no-trade clause.
The relationship was already a wrap by then. And in reality, he ain't really take less money. There's no taxes in Florida so he would be getting the same amount as being in Boston after being raped by taxes.
So if Ray Allen agreed, Boston would have pulled the no-trade clause off the table? They obviously offered it. He wanted to be a hoe and go with the arch-rivals.
Florida gets you through other taxes, property being one of them.
You lost me. How did we get on taxes.
The bridge was burned already, this is like cheating on your wife and offering her a diamond to, "make her forget," all while claiming you'll never do it again.
Ray went somewhere else, because his "family" treated him like an expendable part of the team.

The taxes response was to someone else, my bad.
It's funny that you fail to mention Rondo anywhere in your rebuttal. The fact of the matter is, Ray Allen had a chance to act like a real competitor and take another opportunity to beat the team that just eliminated your team the year before and won a title.
Instead, he chose the soft route and resigned with the team that beat his team of 5 years. If you're a competitor, you put internal bullsh1t aside and go after the team that sent you home early.
I hate to mention Jordan in this thread, but it's appropriate. Michael Jordan despised Jerry Krause, let me repeat that, he despised Jerry Krause, the beginning of the end was during the 85-86 season where Krause didn't allow him to play more than limited minutes and referred to him as property. The relationship continued to deteriorate for the next ten plus years.
Jordan stuck it out, could you imagine Jordan signing with Detroit, or Pippen signing with NY, just cause of their squabbles with management?
Doing that is the definition of a bytch, if you a true competitor LOSING should hurt more than perceived slights by management.
Terrible. Jordan was coming off of a broken foot, and krause didn't want him hurt any worse. Sports medicine wasn't so great back then. Nonetheless, they didn't have the greatest of relationships but they also weren't trying to trade him.
Ray Allen was actually trade to Memphis until they realized the numbers weren't right. Who wants to play with that looming. Why stay when they've been begging to get rid of you for 5 years. In that link I posted, he said they tried to trade him a few months after he got there for McGrady.
He did the right thing. Played out his contract, and got revenge in free agency. They straight up treated him like a bytch, so he dipped.
Pippen was always the subject of trade-rumors. shyt happens all the time, Paul Pierce, Garnett and them weren't the ones making the calls to entertain offers.
He just didn't dip he signed with the team that eliminated his team from title contention. He did a hoe move, no matter how much you try to spin it. And Chicago reportedly entertained offers for Jordan during the 1988 season. I can find you a link if necessary.
Ray Allen got skills, but he's emotional like a woman...face it. U don't hear Paul Pierce pulling hoe-moves and he was always the subject of trade moves in Boston.

this...plus his minutes were gonna diminish, the guy handling the ball doesn't like him, and he was a FREE agent so he had the right to go to whatever situation he wanted regardless of history/money/etc.
