Allen's publicist says Facebook page was hacked
Hours after Ray Allen appeared to briefly clap back at his former Boston Celtics teammates who openly discussed their rift with him, his handlers are denying involvement.
Allen's publicist told ESPN's Rachel Nichols that his Facebook page was hacked, and the social media giant responded by unverifying the page. Earlier Tuesday, a photo of Allen in a Miami Heat uniform driving on former Celtics teammate Rajon Rondo was posted to the page, with the caption "the power to push limits."
On Monday night's "Area 21," Kevin Garnett hosted a cadre of former Celtics teammates, with Allen's absence a prominent topic of discussion. The group - which included Rondo, Paul Pierce, Kendrick Perkins, and Glen Davis - agreed that they still hold a grudge against Allen for leaving the Celtics for the Heat in 2012.

Rondo, however, was noticeably silent on the issue, further fuelling longtime speculation that he and Allen have a specific beef.
