Today's game is a bummer. But some players showed some positives. People said that AB no longer played suffocating D. But today's game was different. He was playing like he was back in 2012. It could be just one game, but it's a good sign that he can still play that level of defense.

He defended Lillard well last Sunday also, but it kind of got overshadowed by his woeful shooting, especially from 3.

Vintage Bradley is still a player on track to post the worst assist rate in NBA history for a player his size or shorter, so I'm not sure if that's a great thing.  He's a black hole on offense.

Bradley's ranking in 2014 among shooting guards only......

Scoring 19th....he shot a lot for a bad team.
Rebounds 6th....very good.
Steals 15th...the thing he does well.
Assists 53rd....he's a terrible passer.
Turnovers per game 78th.....Yikes!
FG% 35th....he's not a good shooter.
FT% 43rd....that one surprised me.

Bradley is too small to cover a lot of the two guards who can overpower him.....like OJ Mayo did last year.

Okay, but my point is that he's a black hole on offense, not that he's a bad shooter.  When his shot is not falling, he does not offer anything on offense.  A starting shooting guard should at least have the capability to pass the ball.  Bradley seems incapable of doing even that.
