  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
Watching him, Johnson and Pietrus are the bright spots of this ugly game.

That dunk on Durant was great.
He got picked off by Westbrook which was cringe inducing, but I've seen him do that a lot more to other starting point guards than have done to him.

He's only going to improve- his jump shot is already starting drop- did you watch the Dallas game?

hes one of the only guys actually shooting anything right now...

Means nothing in this type of game


If it means nothing then why are you breaking his balls when he's one of the best parts of this game for the Celtics organization?
Isn't that hypocritical?
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

Read that last line again. One more time.

He's a defensive stopper.  He's not a point guard or a shooting guard.

Seeing as how Bradley is the only player willing and able to play full court defense for an entire game it wouldn't bother me if they stripped Paul Pierce of the captainship and gave it to Bradley

...Bradley is almost a decade and a half younger than Pierce...Not really a fair comparison.

Pretty sure if a GM in the NBA thought like this, he'd make the team's fans think that Otis Smith would be an upgrade in managing the franchise.

He has played well the last couple of games and he seems to be improving. He is not a star but a developing into a great player to have off the bench.

This kid doesn't suck. He's just not a scorer. He's a defender. He's playing with a ton of heart tonight, and he's much faster than Rondo from the looks of it.

A.Bradley 12 pts 5-9 fg 2 reb 5 ast 3 blk 1 stl plus he is our second best +/- guy tonight behind Pietrus. I think that's solid for a prospect. Why he suck so much? i'm just gonna say kid has potential and there are players who really suck and AB tonight was not one of them.

I strongly disagree with the premise of this thread.

Avery embodies everything that is Celtics basketball.

If you think Rondo would have changed tonight's game you are very sorely misled.  Maybe would have made it uglier.
