[Dingleberry]

Boston Celtics shooting guard Avery Bradley said he does not expect to play in Wednesday's Game 6 of the team's Eastern Conference semifinal series against the Philadelphia 76ers due to the shoulder issues that sidelined him from Game 5.Bradley has dislocated his left shoulder three times during the playoffs, including twice in this series against the 76ers. Celtics coach Doc Rivers said before Monday's Game 5 that both of Bradley's shoulders were now sore and he simply wasn't in position to be on the floor.Rivers said Bradley would not participate in Wednesday's shootaround at Wells Fargo Center, but would try to warm up before the game to see if there's enough improvement to get him back to game action. Bradley sounded pessimistic."I'm just trying to get (the shoulders) stronger. But as of now, I'm not going to be playing tonight," Bradley said. "It's definitely frustrating, but all I can do is keep trying to get stronger, keep trying to improve for my team. That's what I'm going to do."
