Aging, hobbled Ray Allen comes through for Celtics
BOSTON (AP) ? Ray Allen was out on the perimeter like so many times before during a 16-year career in which he's established himself as the most prolific 3-point shooter in NBA history.
Only this time, he was alone.
The Philadelphia 76ers were sagging off the Celtics guard in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, essentially daring him to shoot another 3; he had already missed five. And when Allen got the ball behind the arc on the left side, near the start of the fourth quarter of a three-point game, he showed a rare moment of hesitation before shooting.
But this one was good.
Allen hit a pair of 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to overcome his early woes, and the Celtics beat the Sixers 85-75 to advance to the Eastern Conference finals against the Miami Heat.
Game 1 is Monday night in Miami.
"I had some great looks tonight, probably the best I've seen so far this postseason. I wish I had some back," said Allen, who scored eight of his 11 points in the fourth. "It's almost like I needed the fourth quarter ... I love to get to that point, you focus a little more. But they go in when they counted."
Rajon Rondo had 18 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for his ninth career postseason triple-double, and Kevin Garnett scored 18 with 13 rebounds as Boston reached the NBA's round of four for the third time in five years. Paul Pierce had 15 points and nine rebounds, but he picked up four fouls in less than four minutes in the middle of the fourth quarter and fouled out.
Rondo opened the game with a burst ? four assists and two rebounds in the first three minutes ? but did little over the next two-plus quarters before taking over when Pierce fouled out with 4:16 to play. Rondo had 11 points, four assists and three rebounds in the fourth quarter alone, even drawing up a play during a timeout to get Allen open for a 3.
"To have the trust in Ray, after the way he was shooting the ball, to get it to him for him to make it says a lot about Ray," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. "And I think it says a lot about our team: We trust you for 48 minutes. And I thought that was huge."
Allen, 36, has been struggling with bone spurs in his ankle, and he has been visibly slower after missing the last nine games of the regular season and the first two of the playoffs. Rivers said it would be difficult to hide Allen's weaknesses on defense, but that on offense we was still a threat because "if I tell Ray to stand in the corner, someone's going to stand next to him."
Still, Philadelphia took a chance on giving Allen space for large portions of the game, using his defender to help out elsewhere. Sixers coach Doug Collins denied that they had intentionally left Allen open, but it was apparent to anyone in the building that covering him on the perimeter wasn't their top priority.
"We never want to give Ray Allen a clean look at a three," Collins said, calling Allen one of the classiest and hard-working athletes he's ever known. "The one thing about great shooters is that they are going to keep shooting. He knocked down those two 3s and gave them some distance. That's what great players do."
The NBA's all-time leader in regular season 3-pointers ? he's 21 behind Reggie Miller in playoff 3s ? Allen missed his first five attempts from beyond the arc on Saturday night, some of them quite badly. Boston was 0 for its first 14 as a team, but when Allen passed up back-to-back open jumpers in the middle of the third, Rivers pulled him aside.
"I went over to him and said, 'Hey, listen, we're not going to have that,'" the Celtics coach said. "And I told him again, I said, 'Ray, listen, you don't ever pass up shots.'"
Rondo went over and told Allen the same thing, and then Garnett did, too, "which I thought was great for Ray to hear, confidence-wise," Rivers said. "I thought that was big for him to hear."
Allen checked back into the game near the end of the third quarter, and he found himself open from 3-point range early in the fourth. He dribbled a few steps, realized he was still open, and fired up the shot.
It went in, and the crowd rose to give him a standing ovation.
"Ray is the ultimate gunslinger," Rivers said. "You know, I was a basketball player one day. And I would've never taken that shot late in the game like Ray, after missing my first (five). First of all, I wouldn't have been in. ... It was just impressive. You felt like if he got a shot - I didn't know if he was going to make it, but I knew he was going to take it."

VATICAN CITY (AP) ? The Vatican's inquisition into the source of leaked documents has yielded its first target with the arrest of the pope's butler, but the investigation is continuing into a scandal that has embarrassed the Holy See by revealing evidence of internal power struggles, intrigue and corruption in the highest levels of the Catholic Church governance.
The detention of butler Paolo Gabriele, one of the few members of the papal household, capped one of the most convulsive weeks in recent Vatican history and threw the Holy See into chaos as it enters a critical phase in its efforts to show the world it's serious about complying with international norms on financial transparency.
The tumult began with the publication last weekend of a book of leaked Vatican documents including correspondence, notes and memos to the pope and his private secretary. It peaked with the inglorious ouster on Thursday of the president of the Vatican bank. And it concluded with confirmation Saturday that Pope Benedict XVI's own butler was the alleged mole feeding documents to Italian journalists in an apparent bid to discredit the pontiff's No. 2.
"If you wrote this in fiction you wouldn't believe it," said Carl Anderson, a member of the board of the Vatican bank which contributed to the whirlwind with its no-confidence vote in its president, Ettore Gotti Tedeschi. "No editor would let you put it in a novel."
The bank, known as the Institute for Religious Works, issued a scathing denunciation of Gotti Tedeschi in a memorandum obtained Saturday by The Associated Press. In it the bank, or IOR by its Italian initials, explained its reasons for ousting Gotti Tedeschi: he routinely missed board meetings, failed to do his job, failed to defend the bank, polarized its personnel and displayed "progressively erratic personal behavior."
Gotti Tedeschi was also accused by the board of leaking documents himself: The IOR memorandum said he "failed to provide any formal explanation for the dissemination of documents last known" to be in his possession.
In an interview with the AP, Anderson said the latter accusation was independent of the broader "Vatileaks" scandal that has rocked the Vatican for months. But he stressed: "It is not an insignificant issue."
Gotti Tedeschi hasn't commented publicly about his ouster or the reasons behind it, saying he has too much admiration for the pope to do so. He also hasn't been arrested, avoiding the fate that befell Gabriele.
The 46-year-old father of three has been in Vatican detention since Wednesday after Vatican investigators discovered Holy See documents in his apartment. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said Gabriele had met with his lawyers and that the investigation was taking its course through the Vatican's judicial system.
Gabriele, the pope's personal butler since 2006, has often been seen by Benedict's side in public, riding in the front seat of the pope's open-air jeep during Wednesday general audiences or shielding the pontiff from the rain. In private, he is a member of the small papal household that also includes the pontiff's private secretaries and four consecrated women who care for the papal apartment.
Lombardi said Gabriele's detention marked a sad development for all Vatican staff. "Everyone knows him in the Vatican, and there's certainly surprise and pain, and great affection for his beloved family," the spokesman said.
The "Vatileaks" scandal has seriously embarrassed the Vatican at a time when it is trying to show the world financial community that it has turned a page and shed its reputation as a scandal plagued tax haven.
Vatican documents leaked to the media in recent months have undermined that effort, alleging corruption in Vatican finance as well as internal bickering over the Holy See's efforts to comply with international norms to fight money laundering and terror financing.
The Vatican in July will learn if it has complied with the financial transparency criteria of a Council of Europe committee, Moneyval ? a key step in its efforts to get on the so-called "white list" of countries that share financial information to fight tax evasion.
Anderson acknowleged that the events of the last week certainly haven't cast the Holy See in the best light. And he said the bank's board appreciated that the ouster of its president just weeks before the expected Moneyval decision could give the committee pause.
"The board considered that concern and decided that all things considered it was best to take the action at this time," Anderson said. "These steps were taken to increase the IOR's position vis-a-vis Moneyval."
The Vatileaks scandal began in January when Italian journalist Gianluigi Nuzzi broadcast letters from the former No. 2 Vatican administrator to the pope in which he begged not to be transferred for having exposed alleged corruption that cost the Holy See millions of euros in higher contract prices. The prelate, Monsignor Carlo Maria Vigano, is now the Vatican's U.S. ambassador.
Nuzzi, author of "Vatican SpA," a 2009 volume laying out shady dealings of the Vatican bank based on leaked documents, last weekend published "His Holiness," which presented a trove of other documents including personal correspondence to the pope and his secretary ? many of them painting Benedict?s No. 2, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, in a negative light.
Nuzzi has said he was offered the documents by multiple Vatican sources and insisted he didn't pay a cent ? to any of them.
Gabriele was in Vatican custody and unavailable for comment. No known motive has come to light as to why Gabriele, if he is found to be the key mole, might have passed on the documents. Nuzzi declined to comment Saturday on whether Gabriele was among his sources.
Bertone, 77, has been blamed for a series of gaffes and management problems that have plagued Benedict's papacy and, according to the leaked documents, generated a not inconsiderable amount of ill will directed at him from other Vatican officials.
"For some time and in various parts of the church, criticism even by the faithful has been growing about the lack of coordination and confusion that reign at its center," Cardinal Paolo Sardi, the former No. 2 official in the Vatican secretariat of state, wrote to the pope in 2009, according to the letter cited in "His Holiness."
Anderson, who heads the Knights of Columbus, a major U.S. lay Catholic organization, said he was certain the Holy See would weather the storm and that the Vatican bank, at least, could move forward under a new leader with solid banking credentials as well as a desire to show off the bank's transparency.
"I hope this will be the beginning of a new chapter for the IOR and part of that chapter will be restoring the public image of the IOR," he told AP. "I think we have a good story to tell."
