  • Everyone's excited for the new era.
This is why Danny signed Barbosa.  Just in case Bradley, Rondo, Lee, or Terry went down after AB came back.

Him not seeing the floor most of the second half makes more sense now.

Finally some reason for what I could not figure out last night..."Why isnt Bradley in the game" was a common outcry watching the game last night.

At what point does he get the "injury-prone" label?

Seriously though.

If he doesn't make it through the rest of the season injury free that will certainly be something everyone keeps an eye on (him being fragile)

Maybe he'll have to stop fighting so hard through every pick.  Then we can all start talking about how lazy he is on the defensive end.

Maybe, seems like Rondo has been pretty healthy and why I always defend Rondo when people talk about "effort".

Bradley can't really afford to do that he hasn't made squat and needs tobearn that paycheck

  No, people won't really notice the change since he doesn't play under the microscope like Rondo does.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
I'm not even mad, frankly I'm impressed. He just waits til I'm like, "Yup..here we go, good times!"

Then he gets injured. Its so selfish of him.

Its a little concerning about his injury past. People rip on Wilcox because he can't make it threw a season, and want to trade him, DA might be thinking the same on AB while the word isn't out. So I wouldn't be surprised if he's in trade talks.

(Funny how Smith gets suspended and Bradley "hurts" his ribs on the same day) :P

Don't get me wrong, the guy brings it every night(when he is on the court), and he D is infectious. But he may be one more injury away from being label fragile. DA has some thinking to do, but I wouldn't give this guy up for a scrub, going to have to be for a Smith,Cousins,Gay type package for me to be okay with it.

Just because he got hit in the ribs, you can't call him injury prone for that. 
As long as it isn't his ankle/knee/shoulders...this is just him getting hit hard in the ribs, calling him injury prone from this is a bit of an overreaction.

Well, no one is calling him anything just yet. But it's not just because of that, he had the ankle injury, injuries to both shoulders...I'm just asking the question.

D-West had the same kind of pattern, where each individual injury looked like a fluke, but they happened again and again. At some point you wonder whether it has to do with the style of play.

Gerald Wallace is kind of the same way.

Both of those guys play the same kind of all-out hustle basketball that Bradley plays.

Again, I don't see this as reason to freak out. But with the style of play I think you have to wonder.

(Wallace just missed a couple of games with a rib injury, BTW.)

Yeah, I hear you...Andrew Bogut, classic example of that too...I remember Big Al had a string of different injuries at the start of his career as well, then he pulled it together...hopefully AB stays relatively injury free for the rest of this season.
