    He was on the C Bags and slips, two teams I’ve never followed. I just remember his name.

    Good to have another D-minded player, that's exactly what we need. We have firepower, now we are tougher on D!

    This signing makes me forgive the FO for including Hart in the trade. He's Hart with more experience and skills. Excited to have him

    Gonna miss Hart going up and finishing around the rim due to his thickness rating and balance but yeah.

    With Hart's thickness you know he was there. Someone like Ingram can slither in and back out and nobody will even know he was down low.

    What does Ingram have to do with Bradley?

    Wow. I hope at the age of 28 and allegedly injury free finally he can get back to that quickness.

    If Bradley can be the same dude he was before the injury, which is extremely likely given his age, this is a fantastic get for us. 3 and D all day long. Give me hustle, vet savy defense, and 2-5 from 3 on a nightly basis and we're all good in my book.

    Avery Bradley, due to his position and skill set, might end up being the best role-player pickup of the offseason. No offense to Danny Green, but Bradley will be the player that will allow us to run our 4 best players together (Boogie/AD/Kuz/Lebron). If he's healthy (if that was actually what was causing him to play like garbage), he is the perfect "point guard" for this team. He can guard the other teams small quick guard and space the floor. Lebron can handle guarding shooting guards leaving Kuzma free to guard small forwards as opposed to being beaten up by power forwards. Bradley could be the key to our season. He's a very money-ballesque signing.

    hope he's healthy, and that he bathed properly after leaving C bag territory

    the league raved about him just a couple of years ago, and then he fell off the map

    That makes me barely cautiously optimistic.

    I'm going to temper my expectations on this one...He has not been good for 3 years. He won't be as good as he was 3 years ago and i think we'll be disappointed in his shooting as well. But I'm rooting for him to turn it around and his age gives me some hope he still can.

    If he turns into Steve Bagel, that would suck.

    Lamar Odom says hello. He may not have met the huge, initial expectations, but he was huge during our title runs.

    i wouldn't really consider bradley a former clipper. his time with them was not even noteworthy. and who really would play inspired basketball on that team?

    at least with bradley, we know what he's capable of if he's healthy and motivated. he can definitely be the fisher this team needs.
