Great shooting performance.  Personally I prefer when his aggression comes at the basket rather than behind the arc, but I can't argue with the results tonight.

I find it interesting that you chose to capitalize the word "Threes".

Nice use of punctuation. I'm a big fan of the serial comma.

hope other GMs notice this so we could ship him already, before he hibernates... again.

Green tends to have up and down stretches. If he can have an up stretch leading to the trade deadline, maybe we can get more for him.

What's better is he's becoming more consistent on boards. 5 boards per game good enough for his position.

In all seriousness, I reveled in his game tonight. So many big shots taken and made.

But, performances like these are a double-edged sword. Green made it look so easy tonight, and it begs the question why he can't play this way--with such unbridled confidence--more often.

Can we petition to relocate the Celtics to DC, so he can play half his games there every season?

Without Avery jacking 22 shots and him taking his this is what you get. Thought this would be what we got anyway. Have no clue why they allow Avery to go nuts?

Jeff just took about the amount of shots a healthy P.P. took. Why does this not happen more often? Wt% is A.B doing?

Tommy made an interesting point after the game which sounded like a semi-plausible explanation.

I'm paraphrasing here, can't remember his exact words, but he said something to the effect of : Green stepped up because so many people were out, implying that Green deferred too often to Bradley, Crawford, Lee et al

Makes me think of Bradley as more of chucker in the Crawford mold than I thought , which many people have already said on this board.

+1 to paid the cost  for posting similar as  I typed S-L-O-W-L-Y

He drives me nuts. Just when I started to dislike his play, he pulls me right back in.

When he plays like this, with the aggression and drive, he's really fun to watch. Unfortunately he has games like last night that he just doesn't show up.

He did say the other night that he worries about being THE guy and if he fails the team fails, and that he has to stop thinking about it and just play his game. I'll believe it when it happens, but man if he could play close to this every night...

See pulled me right back in ya big jerk...

I've always assumed there is only so much you can do in practice and they want Bradley to learn how to shoot in games.  Maybe there are some guys who just need a few thousand in-game shots to figure out their offense and Bradley only had one year in college to count against that total.

Personally, I want Bradley taking a lot of threes from somewhere other than the corner in an attempt to become a more diverse perimeter threat.

It's interesting, some of the same people who [dang] Jeff Green for deferring to his teammates are the same people who [dang] Avery Bradley for being selfish.

Quick Danny, move him before he can play another game haha!  His 43 point game against the Heat aside, his value will never be higher than it is right now, so trade him before he screws it up

It was great to see, though.  Thank god we didn't have to endure another night of Bradley's one dribble pull ups with zero assists.  Idc how many he makes - the guy can't dribble (has anyone tried making him go left?), and he is not a good or willing passer.  Name another starting sg who had that streak of games he had earlier this year with zero assists.  That was incredible.  He really is a black hole. 

I was hoping that perhaps we could move him to a team that may look at him as an important building block in exchange for a first rounder in this year's draft, but idt anyone is that stupid.  Too bad the Knicks are out of picks haha.  How about Cleveland?

We're purposely tanking **** he has nothing to worry about, if he fails...well we win.
