Ray Allen has a lot of interesting things to say in his new book, but mostly about the drama that ended his time in Boston, including the time Rajon Rondo told the team, "I carried all of you to the championship in 2008."https://t.co/xNhjqsYbU2

In a team meeting, Allen writes, Rondo told his teammates, “I carried all of you to the championship in 2008.”
Allen continued: “The rest of the team, almost in unison, responded, ‘You what?’”
Rondo said everyone on the team had problems with him, and when Allen told him, “None of us had issues with you,” Rondo said to him, “You did, too. You told me I was the reason we were going to be traded (in 2009 for Amar’e Stoudemire).”
