-his-defensive-player-of-the-year-comments
ROXBURY, Mass. – Avery Bradley made waves earlier this week by boldly throwin
g his name into the Defensive Player of the Year conversation.
And he’s not backing away from his comments.
“That’s my goal: to be Defensive Player of the Year,” he told reporters Mon
day afternoon at a local community event in Belmont, Mass. “I feel like it’s
possible for me if I go out there with the right mindset.”
Wednesday afternoon, amidst his third community event in as many days, Bradley
privately told Celtics.com why he has gone public with such a statement.
“I’m saying it now because I feel like when people say it, people start talk
ing about it more,” he said.
“I’m not really vocal with it, saying, ‘Everybody go out and vote for me!’
You know what I mean?” he added. “I feel like my game should speak for itse
lf.”
Bradley, oftentimes reserved with his words, was as brash as ever while elabor
ating on why his game should speak for itself.
“I feel like I should be in the conversation for [Defensive Player of the Yea
r], because even though I might not get steals and whatnot and the numbers mig
ht not look a certain way, I know that when I’m going up against somebody, no
body else is playing defense against them like that,” he stated matter-of-fac
tly. “I know that.”
Also working in Bradley’s favor is the belief that he will be a key cog on on
e of the NBA’s top defensive teams, and potentially one of the top teams over
all.
Boston ranked fifth in the NBA during the 2015-16 season with a defensive rati
ng of 104.43. The expectation is that, with another year of having its core to
gether, with another year of growth from Marcus Smart and Kelly Olynyk, and wi
th the additions of Al Horford and Jaylen Brown, Boston will only improve in t
hat area.
“I think we can be pretty good,” Bradley said of Boston’s defense. “We hav
e another veteran leader (Horford) that is going to be talking behind us, and
hopefully we can bring all of that together and be a great defensive team.”
Bradley admits that his team must perform at a high level in order for him to
truly be considered as the league’s Defensive Player of the Year.
“I think you have to be on a good defensive team, but you also have to be on
a good team period,” he said.
Fortunately for Bradley, the Celtics are expected to compete for the Eastern C
onference crown, thanks in large part to his defensive abilities, which he bel
ieves should be regarded as tops in the NBA.
大意是小AB希望以後在談誰是好的防守者時能聯想到他,
雖然有時帳面數據不是很好,但在對位主力得分手時總是以沒有明天
豁出去的心態在防守。
我想這就是職業球員該有的拼勁與心態吧!
