he has always been a good on ball defender, and his team defense has gotten better

Celtics are wise to keep Garnett to set the tone for young players coming in and keep establishing that culture

Avery Bradley is a dying breed.

Defense is like 90% effort in general, on the perimeter it's like 95% effort.

Most players in the league today are athletic enough to be above average defenders, but they only care about stats that get them max contracts.

Can't say I blame them in some instances (why do something harder that gets me on less ESPN highlights and makes me less money?) but there is a certain amount of pride to be gained by making someone else HATE playing against you.

The dude is like 22 too. He probably has 6 -7 more years of fresh legs to keep up this pace....maybe more since Boston eased him into rotations and the games he missed from the shoulder surgery.

Avery Bradley is a defensive gawd :blessed:

I've never seen anyone stick on his man the way he does. His quickness and speed is incredible and he has amazing footwork defensively.

To watch him and Lee make these nikkas beggin' for them to stop is :whew:

This is 100 percent true. It's all about effort
