Rolling along/ Bill Bradley

Dunlap should go back to review tape of Bill Bradley, Knicks Jack Marin, Bullets, and of course the incomparable John Havlicek, Celtics.

He's no where near as elite as they were and certainly not a GREAT collegian as in the case of Bradley and Hondo.

BUT, he's got height, shooting ability even though he is not that athletic they weren't especially either (except Hondo).

What they did superbly was run their defender ragged, brushing them off pick after pick after pick. Great passers, quick ball movement, never over dribbling, never holding onto the ball.

On defense, taught themselves always to stay between their man and the basket, and always seeing the ball and seeing their man. And always boxing out, using an elbow if necessary.

If he could be one tenth of a NBA Bradley or Marin, he'd be a great player. Havlicek way out of reach.
