I agree with this 110%
Avery Bradley reminds me of KG in the way he dominates games on the defensive end of the floor...much the same way as Rondo dominates games with his playmaking.
When Bradley goes out there and applies pressure on the opposing PG, after about 5 minutes you can see the other guys lose confidence. They start losing trust in themselves and look almost afraid to touch the ball because they don't want to have to draw his attention. When you have a guy who get get into an opponents head like it's a game changer.
When KG was in (or near) his prime, no player in the league ever wanted to face him. Bradley has that same mental effect - people are practically scared to play against this guy, and he's still only 22 years old.
KG has three years left on this contract and probably in his career. Once he's gone Bradley is the most likely candidate to replace him as leader and focal point of our defense. As long as we have Rondo and Bradley our backcourt is going to dominate their matchup almost ever single night.
Plus another thing that many people are quick to forget is that like Rondo, this guy is a warrior. Rondo played half a playoff series on one arm, and Bradley played through almost the entire playoffs on two dislocated shoulders - all because of their desire to compete and to win. Attitude like that is rare today in a league that's dominated by prima-donnas like Bosh and LBJ who cry if you touch them.
I would be absolutely crushed if we traded Bradley out right now, pretty much regadless of who we get. Bradley was something like a +12 in the playoffs last season, which is absolutely unheard of. If you want another guy to give you that type of point differential you're looking at a top tier superstar in the mould of Lebron or Durant, and both of those guys are well and truly off the market.
TP to you for showing Avery the respect he deserves!
