Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

Avery Bradley can dunk

Texas signee Bradley won the Powerade JamFest which is somehow affiliated with the McDonald's All-American game. Or as I like to call it, the Products I Don't Use Showcase.

Here's how it went down. On paper.

"Bradley executed a two-handed reverse dunk that brought the crowd to its feet. After a similar dunk, Bradley had earned two perfect scores to move to the final round. He followed it with a windmill dunk after a bounce off the backboard in that round."


Not a picture of Avery Bradley

Bradley is a great prospect. Trips Right compares him to Tony Watson, but I really feel Bradley has a much better all around game than Watson did.

Fantastic tag set on this article. I’m greatly looking forward to Mr. Bradley joining the stable of ballers that Rick has established.

What is this thing they call the “midrange jumper”?

The mid-range jumper is what gets you paid if you can’t take it to the rack with authority.

Is he playing with Tristan this season? Gone fishing.

I compare you to Randy Watson.

Hey!

Ah, the sweet science of a slam dunk contest. The only trick left in the bag after your opponent successfully executes a two-handed reverse dunk is to successfully execute a two-handed reverse dunk without a shirt. Checkmate, bitch!

Tony Watson?! All he could do was jump and (eventually) shoot 3s. Best mid-range guy I can remember us having was Benford Williams, though that’s probably not a good comparison either.

Ahem.

I’ll dunk your mama.

Beeman,

Yeah, I don’t get it either. Trips usually provides solid takes.

I am equally perplexed by his Jordan Hamilton = Winn Shephard comparison.

Tristan Thompson is a poor man’s Corey Lockridge.

by Trips Right on Mar 31, 2009 1:51 PM CDT reply actions  

Dexter Pittman is a poor man’s George Muller.

More like a rich mans Sam Perkins wind up doll with more hop and talent.

I would smoke Dexter Pittman in the low block.

Coach Ciampaglio handed me my per diem this morning. Dem $20 bills was ice cold, mon!

I saw Tony Watson for his 8th grade year and all 4 years at Pflugerville. He could jump, but was skinny, couldn’t dribble, and shot a bunch of 3’s.

Terrence Rencher had a nice mid-range shot.
