Saw this on yahoo! sports. Looks to be mostly speculation. Don't really want. He is a great player but personally i think he is at the end of his career and is similar to ben gordon. what do you guys think?

Allen is actually only 31, but yeah, he's a bit older...

He's one of the deadliest shooters in the league. The shooting percentage is a little lower than I'd like, but part of that is also probably a factor of him basically carrying the Sonics on his back a lot of the time. He's definitely a major asset that would be deadly when combined with Deng and Hinrich outside, and gives us a bigger 2-guard. The age is an issue though, and does he really give us anything that different than Gordon on offense?

One of the most consistent shooters in the last 20 years? And Bulls fans might be pissed, but Allen is far more clutch than Rally Gordon.

On that we'll all agree, although hopefully someday Gordon improves in that regard. Someday being this year.

Maybe I'm the only one, but if Hawes does fall to us, I still really like the makeup of our team as-is next year, as long as we add at least 1 more big man somewhere.

But wait, didn't Ray Allen already move to Minnesota?

Hawes seems to be the un-popular pick here, but again, I agree with you 100%. If we don't make any major trades, I am content with drafting Hawes and trading for Gooden, or signing Milicic or Ely.
