Highlights: Avery Bradley’s Blocks of Ages

Avery Bradley brought bad news for the Hawks in his right hand last night. Bradley notched three leaping blocks in the game, equaling the rest of his teammates combined. Here they are:

Tragically, that’s the only one of the three blocks that earned a slow-motion replay from the NBATV production crew. The art of the slow-mo replay was set back generations by that decision.
