Eric Bledsoe of the Milwaukee Bucks claimed he doesn't know who Terry Rozier of the Boston Celtics is. Whether Bledsoe was telling the truth or throwing shade at Rozier, the latter doesn't seem fazed.
As reported by Jeff Goodman of ESPN, Rozier said:

Rozier is simply locked and loaded. He is filling the void that Kyrie Irving has left. Irving will be out for the rest of the playoffs due to an injury. And after two games in, Rozier has been doing an excellent job.
He has come a long way since being drafted back in 2015. Head coach Brad Stevens reflected on that day, as reported by Tom Westerholm of MassLive:
“I go back to when Danny drafted him,” Brad Stevens said in a conference call on Monday. “(Rozier) has the elite athleticism, elite work ethic, elite competitiveness and if you put those three things together, usually it turns out pretty good.”
“You never doubted Terry, when given the opportunity, he'd really be able to play at a high level,” Stevens said. “I think we saw that right when Kyrie went out for those games in January, that three-game stretch when we played at home when Shane and Marcus where both out too where Terry basically was our only point guard on our roster. He was incredible in those three games. But that's been building from the time he got here.”
