Avery Bradley unhappy with contract...

[alldaboston]

Sorry if already posted, and bc during Pats game. But G.Washburn, in his Blatt post, had a tidbit about Averys contract:

Avery Bradley has changed agents from Mitchell Butler of the Rival Sports Group to Rob Pelinka, who also represents Kobe Bryant. Butler was able to procure the oft-injured Bradley a four-year, $32 million contract extension last summer, considered an above-market deal. Now Bradley is apparently unhappy with his contract, especially after seeing players such as Milwaukee’s Khris Middleton (five years, $70 million), Utah’s Gordon Hayward (four years, $61 million), and Cleveland’s Tristan Thompson (five years, $82 million) cash in with lucrative extensions, making Bradley’s deal appear to be a bargain with the new television money increasing the salary cap this summer.

AB was happy with it when he signed it.  it's still more money than he'll ever need in his lifetime.  just suck it up and honor the deal.

LOL
He is the 47th ranked point guard in the league in PER.

I would be too.

We didn't like it when he was hurt all the time

Nothing he can do about it now. Gotta wait until next contract.

That makes sense considering he's a shooting guard.

I would be unhappy with my agent too. I don't expect Avery to not play his hardest because of his bargain deal, though.

[SHAQATTACK]

Sure other teams would like him

Great deal at the time, but of course it doesn't look so hot anymore for Bradley. Lot of teams would love a quality SG at that price and those years. Thankfully it appears Bradley is less angry with the Cs, but more so with his agent.

i thought we would see push backs from the sweet contracts

[Eja117]

Bradley wasn't playing anything like this before he signed his contract. He has become a better player through his work, but he wasn't like this before he signed.

next up.......... bae

He was also, what, 22, when he signed? Already at that point he was a borderline starter, some may argue a legitimate starter. And everyone knew the boatload of money the new TV deal would bring in. He should've been paid more. I'm happy he wasn't, though.

He shouldn't have signed it then. For an average role player, he should feel lucky that he is getting the money he's being paid.
