Celtics will be forced to watch Miami raise their banner

Boy, the NBA really has flair for the dramatic, don’t they?

The Boston Celtics were thiiiis close to knocking the Heat out of the playoffs… and then the whole Ray Allen thing happened… and now the Celtics are going to have to go to Miami to have it all rubbed in their faces opening night.

It won’t take long for Ray Allen to experience a reunion with the Boston Celtics.

While the complete NBA schedule will not be released until later this week, the Sun Sentinel has learned that the Miami Heat will open the 2012-13 NBA regular season on Tuesday Oct. 30 at AmericanAirlines Arena against the Celtics.

Wonderful.  We get Ray Allen shoved in our faces, then we have watch the banner go up?  I can’t even tune in late to skip all that because you know that will be a national broadcast and they’ll be panning up to that damn banner every 5 minutes and showing montages of the ceremony.

So get ready for some fun.  Maybe the Heat will be worn out from their trip to China and the Celtics will lay a beat down on them to christen their new banner.
