The many Boston Celtics fans who have rooted for Ray Allen over the past five years are definitely feeling salty at the moment that he will be draining 3 point shots for the Miami Heat instead of the Celtics next season.  However, Ray hasn't forgotten his love for Boston one bit, and issued a "Thank You" message to all of his fans that he'll be leaving behind in Sunday's (July 15th) Boston Globe.  He took out a full-page ad to express his gratitude for Boston providing him with a home and a great team to play for for the past five years.

"Dear Celtics Fans, for the past five years, my family and I took great pride in calling Boston home. We have loved living in this city, being members of the Celtics family and being part of your community. These memories will be cherished forever. From my heart, THANK YOU Boston for this incredible journey. Ray Allen #20."
