The starting point guards bickered in the Celtics-Bucks first-round series. Terry Rozier called Eric Bledsoe “Drew Bledsoe” while speaking with the media. Asked about Rozier’s strong play, Bledsoe said he didn’t know who that was.
Rozier advanced to the second round.
He apparently took the Bledsoe feud with him.
The Boston point guard wore a Drew Bledsoe New England Patriots jersey to Celtics-76ers Game 1.

Solid taunting – and Rozier backed it up with 29 points, eight rebounds and six assists in Boston’s Game 1 win.
Rozier continues to play well while starting for an injured Kyrie Irving. Maybe Rozier will get his coveted full-time starting job soon enough.
