"Security around Tony Allen was increased on Thursday at the United Center after a Chicago man issued a death threat against the Boston Celtics guard, The Boston Globe and Yahoo! Sports reported on Thursday. The Celtics and Bulls had extra security around their benches during Game 3 of a first round playoff series to keep an eye on Allen. Sources told the Globe that Allen has been receiving threats in Chicago for some time. Allen was also threatened prior to a March 17 game at Chicago. He didn't make that trip because of a thumb injury (ESPN)."
Tony Allen wouldn't comment, and neither would the Celtics, but someone wants this waste of space dead. In April 2007, Allen was found not guilty of aggravated battery in a Chicago court. That charge was connected to a fight in August 2005 outside a Chicago restaurant, so you would have to think it had something to do with that. That or maybe it was ex-gay lover who wanted revenge...whatever just something to look out for during the game if you happen to be standing around Tony Allen.
