NBA Playoffs 2011: Ray Allen Confident Boston Celtics Will Sweep New York Knicks

After Ray Allen hit the go-ahead three to seal Game 1 against the New York Knicks, he had to be feeling good. 

That confidence continued in Game 2 as he scored 18 points and went 4-of-4 from beyond the arc to help the Celtics go up 2-0 in the series. 

Now, that swagger has spilled onto his Facebook page, as he posted this shortly after the Game 2 victory: "Bring out the brooms fellas, we gonna sweep 'em."

It's good to see some confidence from someone in green, especially since everyone else seems to think a sweep of a very good New York squad isn't that certain. 

Head coach Doc Rivers called the Game 2 win, "lucky."

A three-point win at home over a team without two of their best players, Chauncey Billups and Amar'e Stoudemire, is more than lucky...it's a gift from above. 

Many say the Knicks should be up 2-0 if it weren't for poor officiating. 

But Ray Allen doesn't care what people say. 

He just keeps doing what he does best: shoot.

Allen leads the NBA with seven go-ahead three-pointers in the final 10 seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime this season, counting both the regular season and playoffs.

And while Ray-Ray is walking the walk and talking the talk, he's going to have to shoot the shot if Boston is going to win two straight games in NYC.
