Avery Bradley Sucks

[Evantime34]

I think he's a very good 3 and d guy, but he is asked to be too much right now. Once Smart returns they should decrease his minutes from about 32 to closer to 28 which should give him the energy to hold up defensively for longer stretches.

Hahahahahahahahahahahah....

16 points on 7-13 shooting, 2-3 from behind the arc, two assists and a steal, two turnovers, one of which unfortunately occurred at a critical juncture in the game.

You're right, he sucks. Rondo, too (five turnovers tonight and a brainfart that cost us a shot at winning the Cavs game)! And Green (stripped with little time left in tonight's game)!

people love to over react. If you want to get mad at a player over the suns loss how about Jeff Green for letting Markieff morris look like Carmelo Anthony out there? AB is constently being attached in this forum after signing his contract, I feel its not justified.

I feel like Rondo wears last night's loss.  2-10 from the line, 5 TO and no even being competitive on the play that Dragic scored on a lay-up that put the Suns up for good...

I'm just going to say that when we're a serious playoff team again I hope Bradley is not the starting SG. He doesn't suck, but I'd like to think the team could do better.

Why can't Bradley be a starter on a good team?

Don't get me wrong, he certainly could be. However, the other players would then have to be that much more talented.

I don't think the talent level will that drastic considering that Bradley is pretty talented himself.

Perhaps offensively,  but defensively against bigs we were bad and have been all year.

So far, Bradley strikes me as the type of player that is neither going to make, nor break a good team. Competent player, for sure, under the right circumstances, but probably not worth his salary. Also, we likely don't have the right circumstances on the Celtics.

I'd agree with this.

Not gonna lie, ive been a bradley fan from day uno but this year he's starting to p--- me off.. Last year as our only player besides green who could score off the dribble he developed quite a nice dribble pull up. This year though, he's forcing it too much. Takes too many dumb shots, complete tunnel vision on offense once he gets the ball. There was one play right before half i believe where he wanted to take it coast 2 coast with 2 defenders guarding him instead of making the smart pass. Luckily stevens called a timeout before he could screw things up but thats just one example of him trying to do too much. He's also getting alot of stupid fouls when we dont need them(cavs game where we were up 19 to start 4th and he proceeded to get us into the penalty with 8 mins left). He also seems to be exerting alot more effort on offense and conserving himself on defense. He needs to let the offense come to him and stop making the ball movement stop once he gets it. Also him and turner need to work on their passing, alot. Coming into this year i thought turner was a great pick up to run the offense of the 2nd team but hes making terrible decisions out there.. Im sorry but i cant help but cringe when i see that bradley is 6/19 for 13 points while JG is 9/13 with 22 points, bradley just chucks id much rather see 6 of his shots going to green or even KO

[Billz401]

Bradley is now falling into the "black hole" category. Just like bass and sully to an extent, once bradley gets the ball off a turnover/rebound/pass he only worries about himself getting a shot off. With great passers on this team i would like to see our guys have a little more confidence in our teammates to find the open guy. Im just waiting for stevens to unveil the worst bball iq lineup of all time with bradley, thornton, turner, bass, sully

People are indeed expecting perfection. I thought the exact opposite. Bradley looked good and gave us efficient scoring throughout the game. He made a horrendous pass in crunch time! That sucks! He does not suck.

Jeff's 3 pointer went in and out. The whole last minute of the game was horrible for the Celtics. They are playing highly competitive ball but finishing teams off is still an issue. Bad turnovers are hurting the team overall.

I guess while Danny is rebuilding the Celtics team ......he needed to sign a few decent players, unlike the TANKING driven 76 ers. ...... AB was a decent player for the price , so as not to completely turn the fans off by hiring all,D league players like Philly .

Green , Bass and AB .....interim players ......to hold the fort down ...while Danny looks for,that Golden chance to land some serious elite talent.

Keep,the crowd entertained

The Sixers actually tried to sign Bradley in the summer, so I'm not sure if that helps or hurts your point about his talent.
