Avery Bradley lights up Bulls in Boston's Game 6 win

Boston Celtics guard Avery Bradley was outstanding once again during a series-clinching 105-83 win over the Chicago Bulls on Friday, scoring 23 points with 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 3-pointers.

What It Means:

Bradley said he felt disrespected by Jimmy Butler earlier in the series and after an eight-point performance in Game 4, the Boston backcourter went off for 24 and 23 points, respectively, in Games 5 and 6. He is going to be crucial against the Wizards in the second round. Not only do the C's need him to keep up this scoring, but he will have a tough assignment guarding Bradley Beal.

Bradley is averaging 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 steals over 36.0 minutes per game in the postseason. He owns an outstanding .590 effective field goal percentage in the playoffs and his nERD of -1.4 ranked him 334th this regular season.
