I'm not normally one to criticize sports media people. I mean, it seems like a dream job to me. But Mark Bradley. Honestly, I don't know how he's managed to keep a job. I read his column for a few years then stopped because his insight on things were proven wrong time after time after time after time. Whether it be the Braves, Georgia Tech, Duke, whoever. He is almost always way off on things. And when he makes predictions, I'd bet he's wrong 80 - 90 percent of the time. I just think he's awful at his craft.
A good example is the one you pointed out - a big man getting to the foul line. YES, that's part of what they are supposed to do - and not only does it get you points, it helps put the other team at a disadvantage due to foul trouble. My goodness. The Landlord was a rookie last year. I think he's going to end up being a solid NBA player and the fact Bradley thinks otherwise is a good sign for Shelden. Mark Bradley. What a tool bag.
