When you look at the first two games you would tend to think that
a New Bradley had taken the floor of the AAC, but is it cosmetic? I mean look at game 1. He picked up 4 fouls in the first Quarter. Sure he ended up with good #'s but that was against bench players. I just have the impression that his #'s are fake. The closer we get to Oct.30th against Mem. I think we will get a better indication, but it won't be until the end of November before the answer is clear.

Progress is both realized and psychological. Bradley seems to be gaining psychological confidence and his numbers are nice. I like what I see, but wait to make a final determination. I am pulling for Bradley to break out this year.

Well, Bradley's preseason stats are probably inflated because he's gone up against Keon Clark and Mark Blount. On the other hand, Keon Clark and Mark Blount's preseason numbers are probably deflated because they went up against Bradley.

i don't know why people are ripping bradley's numbers, even if they were against bench players.
i would rather have him come in and dominate a team's bench players than be completely ineffective on the bench.

Props to Shawn and his clan of Bradley Jock Monkeys. Now, let's see if he can do it when it counts.

Well, at least we have some potential left to threat people with now ...
And as long as Bradley jacks up good numbers against "bench-guys" like Keon Clark and stuff we donĀ“t have to be afraid of much teams anymore, since Clark has been regarded as one of the solid "starting" centers in the leauge in postseason

Had to chime in with my two cents...Bradley posted these #'s against "Bench Players".
Don't bench players come off the bench in a real game? Don't bench players' efforts and stats count in a real game?
Back to Earth...this is Shawn Bradley not Bill Bradley (in his prime)we're talking about.
Nevermind.
Give me my two cents back!

Everyone, meet Charles Barkley Jr. They are just alike. Every time a person does good, he tries to bring him down. Just accept the fact that he got better over the summer.

Mantis made the "Mr. Athletic" Keon look ridiculous and awkward...that's a good enough start for me.
Keep it hard, Shawn

Bradley's numbers aren't fake nor inflated. I do think that Nellie's gameplan is working out pretty well by looking at the numbers. I haven't gotten a chance to see the games, but he seems to be able to contribute, and I think that is all we can ask for. By the way, Nellie's gameplan was to go more to Bradley on offensive end instead of just looking for him to contribute on defense. I think its working and he should keep doing it.
