How about a nice round of applause for that young man wearing the green and white. Luke Harangody with a double double. Anybody think Luke would win player of the game tonight, before the game started. Luke gave valuable rest time for the Celtic starters tonight. Expect a big game out of the starters tomorrow night in Chicago. Congratulations to Luke tonight. You brought your A game tonight.

I didn't realize I had a man crush on Luke Harangody until he came out like a boss and dropped 8 in 5 minutes. He's officially my dude.

Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Awesome effort from the sort-of-big fella tonight. His shooting was impressive, particularly on that up and under plus the foul, but I'm more satisfied with his rebounding -- that's something Scal never did, and something that Gody clearly has a knack for. Any team can always use a guy like that, particularly since rebounding has been on of this team's issues in recent seasons.

I *heart* big guys who can rebound. Can he be considered a big guy? He is listed as 6'8. Keep up the rebounding Luke & Doc will find minutes for you. Awesome draft choice by Danny Ainge.

Great all around game from Luke tonight.  Bradley?  Yikes.  He seems to have a Gerald Green-like grasp of the game.  Still, he can D like a mad man, but it'll take him a couple of years.  He doesn't come ready out of the box like Luke does.  Four years of college ball is pretty good training.

actually i watched the whole game, Bradley played great defense and on one specific play, he blew by his defender for a missed layup. He was open for the layup but was too strong and missed...his offense game will come but his defense im already liking...hes chasing his man like theres no tomorrow and i like it

Thing I loved the most about watching him play was how he waited in the paint for shots to drop before he started running upcourt. I know guys just want to get into position defensively but I hate when I see 2 guys who could have easily grabbed a rebound just turn around and run once someone takes a shot. Gody waited for the shots to hit the rim and got the rebound when they didnt fall. And when the shots did fell he just hustled his butt up the court to get into position. Really solid overall play by gody. You can tell he must have been hungry, I dont think this was a fluke... He's gonna be an awesome backup for PP in easy games and a solid backup PF whenever baby is playin C and KG is on the bench.

Feeling really good about the team right now. We were winning without Rondo, we're winning now without KG. Come playoff time if our team, god willing, is healthy... we are going to be a force to be reckoned with.

Is he in the wrongs spots on offense and defense? It his shot selection suspect?

I didn't see the Toronto game, but I haven't noticed those Gerald Greed like qualities when I have watched Bradley. I have seen him missing shots, but they were within the offense.

Bradley missed training camp and the start of the season. Lets give him some time before we compare him to Gerald Green. I don't believe he will be a bust and would really benefit with some time in the D-League to get his legs back and confidence up.
