Avery Bradley is the next Fisher. Fans will think he's good but he's going to a detriment.
He plays scared too. He and KCP are the only Lakers that look like they're playing scared and with hesitation. Mark my words, he's going to be a pariah soon. |

I remember people were saying, "Nooo!" when we signed him. 
Imagine if the Lakers sign Iggy.. |

He is an elite on ball defender.
Luka has to work his ass off for those points |

Great defense. Anything he gives on offense is icing on the cake because i know he expends a ton of energy fighting through screens on defense.

Yup. There are some situations I dont wanna see him in there, but those are few and far between. |

| Only people playing scared tonight were KCP and Kuz. They need to figure it out quick or they will both be riding the pine. |

Kuz didn’t play scared.
Unless ... scared means something other than what I think it means? Is it slang for did not do well? |

| Bradley's defense was impressive again tonight; he is quick and aggressive. Every team needs a player like AB. Offensively he added 11 point. |

I wish our entire team played "scared" like AB
does.

He took some really bad shots last night. He played tough on Luka but that isn’t a matchup he can win.

He has textbook fundamentals on defense that would make any coach proud. Low wide stance keeping his back at an angle, turns his body to slip screens, active feet and tenacity, I can't find a single flaw with his defense other than his small size. Looks like Avery has returned to 16-17 season form  |

The last three years both Bradley and D Green have been near the top of the league in average defensive speed among guys who play 20+ mpg. Both are also elite at avoiding screens. With an elite defensive big behind them (or two for that matter), it’s a great defensive foundation.
An engaged LeBron, Caruso, and maybe Iggy if he gets cut loose, is a very tough group to score on. |

I don't want us to fall in love with the mid-range, but I do not mind at all that we take the mid-range. The mid-range shot is one that few defenses scheme for now. Same with the post up. If you have players who have wide open mid-range shots, take it. If you have a dominant post up player, go for it.
So long as AB takes open 2s not contested 2s I am all for it. We are talking a few of them a game. This isn't like a scorer taking 10-12 shots a game from there. |
