do they WANT to max him...no...
IT is playing at a superstar level...but he is not a superstar player...and due to his lack of size this dude could fall off a cliff any minute...and he is always going to be bad defensively cause dude is just to small to fight through screens consistently...nothing he will ever be able to do about that...
His 4th quarter production has been so crazy hot this year that it is just no way he can sustain that for multiple seasons...one while this nikka was shooting something ridiculous in the 4th something like 65% or some shyt...
He also seems to have this weird cult following...friend of mine who lives in boston was telling me a few weeks ago they were talking about all time great celtics and people were legit throwing his name out there with pierce and larry legend

...
will they HAVE to pay him the max to keep him...of course because plenty of teams are going to line up to pay him the max if they don't...
I hope they give it to him...every dollar he gets is a dollar that bradley don't get which means when the spurs throw that damn near max at him to come play with kawhi so they can rewrite the history books on perimeter defense...the celtics won't match...
I'm going to need marcus smart to do a little more to push bradley out the rotation to...
Outside of the spurs I am rooting for Boston the most in the playoffs...I need them to at least play the cavs tough whenever they meet to make them feel like they are 1 player away...pull the trigger on that trade...get bradley up out of their so swag antonio can start the pillow talking process early...
