 Interesting that his rookie year he played 26.5 mpg any played in 75 games, most in his career.

 Indiana ramped up his minutes to 35 mpg, and he's down to about 55 games a year.

 Now 30, the Celtics have him back to 26 mpg and he's played in 67 games so far second best in his career.

 Match made in heaven.

If he gets hurt now, I'm blaming you for the jinx.
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

Ha ..LOL….that’s right !   The reality is Brogdon is now just expected to do his share , not carry the team night in and out .  There are only so few Bron freaks who can carry a team 80 games a year with minimal injuries.  To me Brons steady ready to play all these years is his biggest legacy.

What we need now is a righting of this jinx in the universe.  A negative to offset the bragging positive statement.

I dare not brag about Rob , his world is so fragile .

I'm not so sure it is the minutes, but more the role and coming off the bench.  It is just easier to come off the bench.  Not nearly as much strain on the body.

 I think it is the minutes. Go look at his career numbers, the guy just wasnt made for a heavy workload.

Two big questions after the trade - Would he really be OK with a reduced role and  Could he stay healthy.  Yes on both counts.  Keeping my fingers crossed for 6th MOY.

Not sure the difference between 26 min as a starter vs. 26 min off the bench.  When he plays now off the bench, the ball is in his hands a lot.  He might get fewer touches if he was with the starters more.

Whatever it is, I am glad he is healthy and playing well going into the playoffs.  He should make a big difference for us.  He should be able to give us important minutes in the playoffs that we just didn't have last season.  Smart, Brown, and Tatum should all benefit.

Hopefully, our bigs will hold up and at least match what we got from them last playoff run.

Well the jinx has been applied. I hope the inevitable injury he has doesn't keep him out too long.
Back to wanting Joe fired.
