3) Knowing someone else is going to overpay Ray Allen, Celts make a July 1st play for JJ Redick (full midlevel exception: 5 yrs, $33m).
If this comes to pass, if Ray Allen is replaced with J.J. Redick, I can tell you right now how many Celtics games I will watch next season: 0. It was hard enough to ignore the presence of Shelden Williams on the roster this past season. I'll wish them luck and all, just not against any team with a UConn player on the roster. Any UConn player.
