Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers smiles during practice in El Segundo, Calif., Saturday, June 14, 2008.<br /><br />The Celtics face the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday in Game 5 of the NBA basketball finals.

The Celtics expect Ray Allen to play when they try for a second time to win the NBA championship.

Kendrick Perkins? Now that's a different story. Allen rushed from Staples Center after the Los Angeles Lakers' 103-98 win Sunday night that forced a sixth game Tuesday night in Boston.

The reason: "health issues" involving one of his three children.
