Avery Bradley

Before the season began how many of you would have predicted that Avery Bradley would have cracked the top 10 of the Madness tournament not once but twice this season?  Forget that this was a breakout season for him, all that matters is that he made this list.  All kidding aside, AB’s ascension has been remarkable [...]

The madness continues byond the top 4 plays of the year but not before the previous two matchups were voted on and two plays won the clear vote.  The third seed, Pierce’s bomb in Game 5 easily beat Stiemsma’s block on Josh Smith.  However, in a huge upset, Pierce’s three to move ahead of Larry Bird into [...]

Earlier today, I made a suggestion over on the Olympic Basketball Blog.  Rather than the NBA push for some insane 23-and-under rule for the Olympics, it can accomplish its goals by sending two separate men’s national teams to the Olympics and the NBA’s new baby, the World Cup of Basketball. In a nutshell, it allows [...]

WEEI’s Ben Rohrbach caught up with Avery Bradley last night at the Celtics’ annual “Summer Soiree”. Avery talked about just how much he tried to avoid KG as a rookie, the Celtics “family” attitude and how badly this year’s team wants to win: [...]

ESPN Boston’s Chris Forsberg caught up with Avery Bradley today at a promotional event: “For any athlete, especially me being a young athlete, it’s hard for me to not to be able to wake up every day and play the game of basketball,” said Bradley, who visited the Dill family Tuesday to unveil the first [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.   “I don’t know anything,” Bradley told CSNNE.com in a phone interview. “They just want me to get healthy. That’s all they really tell me. They don’t [...]

The first phase of Avery Bradley’s shoulder issues may be complete, with the Celtics guard recovering from May 30 surgery on his left shoulder. The second phase — surgery on his right shoulder — is scheduled to begin “shortly,” according to a league source. Though not as serious as the condition of the left, which popped out [...]

This play was all kinds of amazing in a very short time:   The block by Wade on the Bass dunk attempt?  Nasty?  Rondo recognizing in the span of less than two seconds, that Mickael Pietrus is in the corner and then slapping it to him while getting fouled (how big was THAT no-call??) was [...]

Meanwhile, Bradley is resting after surgery Friday on both shoulders, a source with direct knowledge of the situation tells WEEI.com. He was the only Celtics player not in attendance at the Saturday morning shootaround. The source confirms that Bradley had surgery on Friday and is expecting a summer-long rehab program that could last up to [...]

The Avery Bradley situation has gone from "he might play in Game 6" to "out for four months" in a blink… and that was solidified today at shoot around when word broke that Bradley would need surgery to repair his constantly dislocating left shoulder. If you go back to the beginning of training camp, Bradley [...]
