Monday, December 26, 2016Texas,’’ says Gaddy. "He tried out for our AAU team, and I was the best player on the team at the time.’’After three years in Arlington, Texas, Bradley and his siblings had moved back home to Tacoma with their mother. Their divorced father, Avery Bradley Sr., was a sergeant in the military. Bradley was a hyper-athletic eighth-grader lacking in skills when he tried out for the AAU team that featured Gaddy as well as Isaiah Thomas, the All-Star point guard who starts now in the Celtics’ backcourt alongside Bradley."My best friend used to make fun of me about the camps I wasn’t invited to, and I used to get mad,’’ says Bradley of Gaddy. "He was just always better, always the favorite. I was always the one in the shadow that everybody was like, 'He’s not good enough. Might not even make it to college.’’’"When we were younger, I had a flair and cockiness, and I carried that with me,’’ Gaddy says. "I knew that he loved me for it but hated me for it. I used to pick on him – 'I got all the accolades, I’m the better-skilled player, I go to all these camps.’ He would beat up on me, because he was older and stronger. On the court we weren’t friends at all, but off the court …’’They were the closest of friends, and Bradley would not enable his self-loathing to poison the friendship."I’m the oldest in my family, but growing up I was young for my grade,’’ Gaddy says. "He was the older brother I never had. He was always protective. I’m this skinny, scrawny kid, and I remember twice on the (AAU) circuit I got into it with somebody – the guy was talking about fighting me, and Avery was like, 'Nah, you going to fight me.’’’Did the opposing player back down?"For sure,’’ Gaddy says. "Because he always has this look. He’s like that to this day: 'Brah, I got you, I’m going to take care of you.’’’"Growing up I was a different person than I am now,’’ Bradley says. "Now I’m the quiet, laid-back one, but I used to be the wild one in the group. I was like the bully. I got in a lot of fights growing up, and not just basketball fights.’’Bradley used to beat himself up more often than any opponent on the court or in the street. One decade ago he declared his early retirement from basketball just as Gaddy, his AAU roommate on the road, was emerging as a future star."I remember one day after summer basketball, I called my AAU coach and I was like, 'I’m done.’ Like, 'Basketball is probably not for me,’’’ Bradley recalls. "I was 15, 16 years old. I told him that because the rankings had came out and I wasn’t even on them. My best friend (Gaddy) was No. 10 in the nation. He was the No. 2 point guard after John Wall.
