"Jaylen Brown is not liked because of his 'im better than you attitude'."
But we have a 22 years old in Minnesota running his mouth about how he's the best player in the world and talking trash to everybody while the media is calling him the face of the league.
Make it make sense, please.
It’s the things Jaylen Brown tend to attach himself to. I’ve seen him speak on racial issues and such…I think that’s it. He’s also very intelligent and articulate and honestly I think a guy like that can be a threat.
I really don't get the fuss about Ant. People are acting like he is the best player in the league already. He might become that one day, but for now he's Top10 at most.
Any never said he was the best player in the world stop the 🧢
When did edwards say he was the best player? I heard him call Jokic that. Heard him say he's the best shooting guard. 😂
They need someone more egotistical than JB to market. He be giving too much money to black communities to be the face of the league
JT does well - “should’ve had 50”
JB does well - “is JB a #1 over Tatum?”
Celtics win close- “should’ve won by more”
Celtics win big- “no competition”
Celtics in a close game but win big at the end- “should’ve never let it be competitive in the first place”
--------> Goalpost
💀💀💀💀💀💀 truer words have never been spoken
espn just hates boston. Never gets enough coverage and credit.
That’s a way to look at it. I see it as we know how great this team and will treat like the heat with bron. Simple. We expect greatness, and when it doesn’t show that’s a problem.
Jay, the NBA did not give Jaylen Brown his contract. The Celtics organization recognizes him and compensated him. The NBA definitely underates him. He should have been all defensive team as well. Btw Stephen A,. Jordan definitely felt he was better than any other basketball player.. You need that swag and attitude to excel in the NBA. In fact, Stephen A feels he is the best sports personality in the media. You want people to hold that against you?
Great points
thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is about pushing media agenda....great jordan point
You're missing the fact the the source said "he is not well liked and is not as marketable as he should be."
Excellent peroration. Well done, @Swongy!
He's definitely not underrated. Prisoner of the moment first take strikes again.
Jaylen Brown deserved it more than Devin Booker this season. The Suns underachieved, in my opinion, during the regular season and really fell flat in the Playoffs.
Would about the Mavs?
It’s crazy how Haliburton and Sabonis made it over JB
Crazy how Sabonis made all NBA but not all star
Lmaoo they’re both better than brown.
@@MP-gi9mp😂 yea you don’t know ball
@@MP-gi9mpWHAT lol
@@MP-gi9mplol they both never played in the finals 😂
Think about it, Brown has to put up 40 for anyone on this programs, directors and pundits, to talk about him. Yeah, that's pretty underrated
Jaylen Brown has more heart than Jayson Tatum do just the truth
right, its just like when lebron had kyrie in 2016
we all knew lebron was the best player but lebron let Kyrie cook and win the championship on that clutch three pointer
@@miketroganexcept its not like that at all lol
It’s not heart. You can’t sit here and say nba players have no heart to win. It’s just aggressiveness. That’s different from having heart. Brown is more aggressive than Tatum but they both have a lot of heart
@@vandanpatel923Tatum has a track record of settling on 3s, in big postseason games. When his shot isn’t falling, he doesn’t exhibit the aggressiveness to bull charge the rim. It reminds me of KAT & PG. Tatum is more skilled than Brown, but that always make him better. PG is more skilled than Kawhi, but he’s not a better player. Kawhi is more aggressive and more reliable. He also knows his game and has mastered implementing it. He can get to his spot without a bunch of excessive dribbling.
They both are not leaders
Whoever that source is, the person is INCORRECT. Jaylen is very likable. Watch his interviews. He's smart. compassionate and humble.
U talkin bout on camera stuff. Unless u kno him personally u don’t kno wat he’s like off camera
Horrible not likeable at all
@@nickgerard8268he's from the south , he's the same off camera , he's not holding guns an throwin up gang signs like ja is , he's a MAN.
@@RockyMiller-tc1wjlook into his ventures off the court. We don’t know how people are truly behind closed doors, but he’s for the people and it’s clear.
Says who bixxtch i fkn hate Jalen Brown
ESPN just really hates the fact Tatum and Brown are on the same team. They’ve been trying to break them up for years now
Years!
Facts 😂
“I’ve been ignored by Better people “ I’m using that one😂😂
Jason Tatum sometimes shrinks when the lights are brightest…Jaylen Brown plays better when the lights are brightest..seems like he loves the pressure.. 🏀
Agree
He loves the pressure as evidenced by his Game 7 performance against the Heat last year ...
@@perotalRecency bias is crazy. He's good but he's not better than Tatum
People just regurgitate what the media preaches. When did Jayson shrink? The only series out of like 20 was the finals, which he was rode to death on the way carrying the team
You mean the same Tatum who scored 51 in a game 7?! Please stop. They are both great, Tatum will always have the more upside on talent but Brown has the right mentality where Tatum is a very relaxed person which takes him longer to wake up in games.
SAS: lets knock him down even further and make him more hated by saying what a random person texted me.
Source: trust me bro
Bro that ticked me off, As a Celtics hater myself, his the most likeable Celtic in my opinion, he didnt text kobe that corny “i got you today stuff” & then lay eggs
Jb is loved in Boston bc he cares about ppl more than he does bball. He is in the community all of the time, he is using his wealth to lift up other ppl in both Boston & Atl. He’s not scared to be perfect. He’s authentically & unapologetically himself . So if that makes him not like able/ than I hope ppl hate him
@@user-xk5xo8uo4u that's why I support him. Dude just seems SOLID as an individual.
@@Kevin.Costner. niqqa he text kobe game 7 and dey won 😂💯he had like 27 u niqqas b straigh hating
Agreed, saying someone isn’t likable and not putting your name or any facts of what JB has ever done is a weak move and SAS should no better than to just throw that out rather than looking deeper before he comes back to us.
Yeah take off Booker or Leonard for Brown. No way Suns should have two guys on there when they were a train wreak.
Take out the run and dunk man!
It’s a regular season award and Booker was easily better than JB during the regular season
@@work4whatyouwant477the suns were trash period. 3 all stars 1 for sure hall of fame player and they were 2 spots out of the play in. And I don’t want to hear that injury bs. Injuries are apart of the game. Then they get swept. Smh. Garbage season garbage playoff run.
@@realamerican8069Giannis is on a different level than kdisney and booker. He deserves first team. JB should’ve made it over those 2
@@nikhiltrivedi8126 Giannis has no bag! He literally relies on running and dunking.. he’s not taking seriously by other players or the media for that matter.. he better hope teams allow(easily defended)him to run and dunk next year.. otherwise he’ll be on the bench with his brother..
Hali shouldn’t have been on the list.
Jaylen way better regardless if he’s likeable or not
I've said it before and it bears repeating. ESPN has a BOSTON PROBLEM...they don't like Boston. Boston had the best record in the league by a WIDE MARGIN and all they talked about was the Lakers, Jokic, Anthony Edwards, the Knicks...I think Bronny James got more press than Boston did.
Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum are arguably the best 1-2 combo in the game. Its something about Boston that ESPN doesn't like to give them and their players their due. Its always some negativity they always attach to Boston. Its not a Jaylen Brown thing, the brother been nice...it's an ESPN Boston thing.
Man this i completely agree with. Boston barely gets any coverage, and if they do, it’s when they lose or choke away a lead.
They got to win first, this is their 5th time in the conference finals in the past 6 years and they still have yet to win 🏆
Because we are arguably the best sports town. They hate us for no reason.
Early 2010s they never talked about us and only talked about LeBron
@@quentinjones6877”they got to win first” bro LA hasn’t been relevant post season wise since the bubble😂
This really isn't about how much Money Brown makes. But how good he is compared to his peers. He's underrated. Period.
If you say so. If you ask me, he’s overrated if you want to bring up his contract.
@@TA-ht4joif they go on and win a chip, he’s worth that contract

Jayson Tatum Stats
BOS · 2023-24 season
26.9 Pts, 8.1 Reb, 4.9 Ast, 47.1 FG%
Jaylen Brown Stats
BOS 2023-24 season
23.0 Pts, 5.5 Reb, 3.6 Ast, 49.9 FG%
If brown got the same shot volume as Tatum he would be first team all nba. Brown is 50% in clutch time Tatum is 36%
On average Tatum averages about one more shot attempt than Brown. It is not like there is a huge difference
Don’t forget to mention that the best defensive player on the opposing team guards Tatum, that’s not nothing. Most teams only have one defensive specialist.
@@Ishakazulu that’s really not accurate 😂
Casual alert Tatum Avg 1.4 more shots. Casuals watch one game and talk
@@brettt141 watched just about every Celtics game this year 😂 check the stats when they both play “casual” 🤫
You simpletons saying he’s not underrated because a of contract ??? What does that have to do with his performance??? He’s definitely underrated compared to Tatum everyone claims Tatum is better than brown but based on the playoffs brown has been the better player ofc he’s underrated.
Brown has balled put the last couple games but for the whole playoffs there still an argument for Tatum. Brown has been a better scorer tho Tatum has scored like 5 more total points Brown's efficiency puts him over. Tatum is by far the Celtics best rebounder with like 30 more rebounds than anyone else on the team and leads the team in assists including over double Brown's total. Brown's been the more sexy player with Tatum while still scoring for the team is being just as much a facilitator and glue for the team. Both very important and how you feel about either is just what you place more value on.
Always said brown was the better player but people are afraid to put him over Tatum and everyone knows it
Tatum is better but Jaylen is still underrated, it’s more of a 1a 1b than a 1 and 2 type thing
Tatum is better. Every team focus on him more for a reason
@@jammer9941finally someone with common sense
ESPN talks more about Bronny James , Jordan vs Lebron than they have Jaylen Brown. ESPN is an entertainment company that happens covers sports. The producers of this show and all other shows have an agenda. SAS has way more than enough sway at ESPN that if he wants he could start any segment with whatever he chooses.
I.e. in stead of this segment being "is Jaylen Brown underrated" it could have been "How good is Jaylen Brown" and where would the Celtics be w/o him.
Jaylen Brown isn't doing commercials to sell products to consumers, so it's not profitable for the media to cover him. He doesnt even have a shoe deal.
@@DrAwesome43it’s also political, JB was signed to Donda sports, worked close with YE. He also backed Kyrie when the media and league was tearing him down. He is VERY Pro-Black, he’s trynna bring black Wall Street to Boston and plans to use the money from his new contract to help him with that. He’s not marketable cause he goes against the grain and is actually for the people, not just a face trynna sell you a product you don’t even care for or might even believe in.
@@ejp507🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
I was looking for this comment...
It was deep in the replies
Perk to Jay, "I've been ignored by better people." 😂🔥
He is underrated by the media like NBA on ESPN, but not fans. Basically, this should be a segment of self reflections for you talking heads.
Right
man Jaylen just be saving Tatum
He saving the whole Celtics team not just jt
Yeah he saving his career
Yep 2022 Finals was a sneak peak when it maters most
Always seems like it goes this way
Just like he did in game one right? I swear JT has the Lebron effect. People jump at the chance to criticize the man win or lose
Devin Booker is Overrated bro
Yea he should took Devin Booker spot on 3rd team
@@donaldpowell6725 100%. How do the suns get 2 guys on the all-nba teams after that season?
Booker worse than Ben simmons
Devin Booker is not a 2-way player.
@@TheDON914 stop the cap.
He clearly did the same thing without Porzingis and holiday
Never forget the start of the season when Jay Williams said “Giannis and Lillard are already better together after one game than Brown and Tatum after seven seasons” lmaoo
Perk up there throwing DARTS at Jaywill!
I always felt like the gap between them was never that big. Jaylen out playing Tatum in the 2022 NBA finals is proof of that.
Booker and KD got swept. Boston is the best record in basketball. That alone should be the reason for one of them to get booted off in place of Brown
FACTS
All NBA isn’t counting the playoffs
@@marckusduverger9776 they still had the best record by 7 games and were beating people by 11. Both Brown and Tatum went from averaging 30 and 27 last year to 27 and 23 this year was just sacrificing for the greater good but Brown got punished for that on the all nba selection despite have a better year.
Stephen A constantly undermines the Celtics by talking about their “supporting cast”. Why doesn’t he do that for any other team? It only applies to the Celtics? Why not just admit the Celtics are where they are in large part because of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, and Al Horford too.
the contract talk is dumb af because he just benefited from being the FIRST player to sign an extension with these new terms and money. in the next 2 years he won’t even be top 15 highest paid
Exactly , bunch of simpletons thinking contact = not underrated
💯💯💯
Yeah and people for some reason can never wrap their heads around that. Mike Conley was the highest paid player in 2016 and people were saying the same things.
He won't be top 20
I'm certain
@@mason_yt444hope you realize that a majority of the people on this planet are sadly slow or miseducated about a lot of things.
Stephan response for brown not making all nba is TERRIBLE. Brown carries the Celtics more than Tatum, he deserves to be second at least
Facts, because if Tatum showed up in the Finals like brown did, They would have a championship Ring already
Who are you taking off then to replace with Brown?
Everything he said about Brown can apply to Booker. The conversation should be do you put Brunson or Booker
and brown shows up in the playoffs😂
They stay moving the goal post
Perk all day making animal noises when someone not agreeing and now has the nerve to tell Jay to fix his face.😂😂
Right like who tf is he?
Kendrick ‘alright time out’ Perkins
Kendrick Perkins wanna throw his weight around at everybody like he Shaq or something 😂
He just sounds like that naturally 😂
People are intimidated by Jalen Brown’s intelligence, but the NBA source that Stephen A Smith was speaking of needed to code it as “not likable” because when dealing with sports, intelligence is not what makes you likable. I have never gotten the vibe that he thinks he’s better than anyone, in fact he’s truly excepted his role on the Celtics as the number two and has lived in Tatum’s shadow for over five years. I’m sorry, but that’s not someone who thinks he’s better than anyone else.
Why doesn't the supporting cast ever diminish Luka or Jokic.
Brown showed up in the finals Tatum did not. Brown has been their best player this post season as well. Its a popularity contest and Tatum receives the benefit of the doubt all the time.
Bruh… why do people have selective memory about the times tatum has carried this team
@@bigmo3692I agree with this point but I also agree that in that finals Jaylen brown definitely outplaying Jayson Tatum..if jaysom tatum would have just played tk his regular seasom averages that series would have went 7 ganws
@@bigmo3692 memory of a fly brother.
Chill out.
@@bigmo3692Lol these guys were the same ones criticizing Jaylen for having no left hand last year
@@bigmo3692 no one said Tatum NEVER did anything. I simply pointed out the times Brown showed up. It was to the point of the people/media putting Brown down as if he's just there for the ride.
Ima be honest I’m starting to think brown is better than Tatum but we always hit him with the “he don’t got no left hand” jokes but if you watch the games this year and now the post season brown has outperformed him, he’s truly underrated coming from a bucks fan
I've been saying that the past 3 years jaylin Brown is Boston best player
I been saying it since the 22 ecf .. they gave Tatum the Larry bird trophy but brown deserved it
I been saying this at least for the last two years
As a lifelong Celtic fan, I wouldn't say JB is better than JT. I wouldn't say JT was better than JB, either. They're a duo.
I've always thought JB was a better scorer, with much more of an attack mindset than JT, while JT was a bit more skilled overall. But, they're really close, and on any given night either one can go off and be the reason you win.
I think Tatum has more raw talent but JB is more mentally strong and he understands the moment. But the point to me they compliment each other. At this point just win that's how all these narratives will be put to bed.
It's not his "attitude " it's his intellect. He said it himself when it came to being drafted. Since he went to Berkeley, owners thought his intelligence would be a hindrance. If he played on a garbage team, his stats would skyrocket. He should have made all nba if you have kawhi Leonard on there.
"stop it that wasn't very nice" 😂
Stephen A's arguement is voided by the fact that playing next to another superstar clearly didn't harm Booker and KD..
He this highest paid basketball player RIGHT NOW ,we saw the 2022 finals The dude arguable is the better celtic
Great points from all three of them !
He may be underapreciated to the media and those who don't regularly follow basketball/NBA but he most certainly isn't in Boston. His contract speaks for itself, Celtics love both Tatum and Brown. That's why we hope/want them to get along, if Tatum has a bad night Brown can step up, if Brown has a bad night JT can step up.
Not to mention players like Holiday, White and Porzingis thrown into the mix. This Celtics team is great as it is, JT does sometimes get more of the spotlight/good press from the media, but he also gets the blame for when we lose. I think the narrative is to try and create tension on the Celtics so as to split JB and JT up, not the first time they have tried to push this narrative. But every Celtic fans knows that is a horrendous idea.
JB keep doing what you doing, we love you here in Boston. Forget the All NBA first team fans can pick and choose all they want, they aren't the ones playing on the court. Focus on winning the championship with yo brother JT and the rest of the Cs squad. We got something special here in beantown. #DifferentHere 🍀🍀🍀🍀
It’s not Tatum vs Brown. It’s Tatum AND Brown.
Im happy he finally getting the respect he deserves.
Brown has more heart than Tatum he not scared of the big moment Tatum fold like a pretzel in those moments
Game 6 bucks… game 6 and 7 vs 76ers. Why do yall hate tatum?
We’ve seen brown fold too … Tatum shows up a lot … brown shows up a lot
@@bigmo3692after he dunked on LeBron in the playoffs as a rookie, they started hating
I’m not a Tatum hater I want to see him be the best player he has crazy skills but he need that heart like brown has even if brown has a bad game he still shoot and try to make it happen it’s times you can see the fear on Tatum face
@@shermandudley5548can’t wait to see Luka outplay Tatum
Why cant yall praise brown without bringing down tatum. The media really does suck
Tunes are changing 👀
All of a Sudden...
Perkins has been saying for years that Celtics need to trade JB. Last year he said they should think about trading him for TRAE YOUNG. Now he gets up here and acts like he’s been praising JB for years. Dude is a clown
Those guys basically have identical stats. No way jaylen brown should've missed being in the all nba list.
Good discussion 👍🏽
Perk when a player is underrated, they have to have a 40 to 50 point game to start to getting recognition. Jaylen Brown, Drew Holiday, and White, are the reason Jayson Tatum get such easy shots. Today's game evolve around the 3 point shot, and the power dunk. If Jaylen Brown start smiling into the camera, dunk more, raises his 3 point shooting percentage, and keep holding down his defensive prowess, he can not only become the face of the Boston Celtics, he can become the face of the entire league. Plus, he invokes his educational smarts, when he speak for all the players in the NBA.
normal people when a great team wins: appreciates...espn: criticize... normal people when u score 40: appreciates... espn: still criticize 😁😁😁
The only reason why we don’t put brown in the upper tier of stars, is because he’s a 2nd option. If he had his own team and was doing this, it would be a different story.
Booker and either LBJ/AD are 2nd options, but they made All NBA.
@@juliothom2408 factssss but we seen them carry their own team before. So we have no problem saying that they’re better than brown and we can see why they made all nba. It’s hard to give someone all nba and they 2nd option with Tatum as the man. I love brown i think he shoulda made it over Booker and Jalen honestly or even kawhi just because injuries.
@@dontebello369 What those guysdid BEFORE shouldn't matter more than what they're doing NOW.
BEFORE, JB was All NBA. He isn't NOW, despite him playing the best overall ball of his career, even if he's scoring a couple of points less because of the talent the team added.
JB got penalized for being a Team Player, and that's wrong on so many levels.
Paolo is going thru what haylen brown is in terms of the general perception of their valuation, they perform consistently while getting no media coverage.
Brown definitely deserved All-NBA over Haliburton, Sabonis, and Kawhi, he only averaged .7 less points than Kawhi and his team was the number 1 team in the East
Tatum only superstar can have 4 points at the half and still be up near 20 then stat padd when up 15 to nake it look like he had good stats
I don’t think you saw the third quarter when he had 8 points to help push the lead to 15… lol
CASUAL
Highest paid player underrated?
They need them clicks bro
He's overrated based on pay
Underrated means people and media underrate your abilities. You can be highest paid and still be underrated. For instance media didnt vote him to all nba teams
Didn’t say his team didn’t appreciate him.
I thought the same at first, but clearly they are talking about public opinion rather than his bank account.
That is such a fake text LMAOOOOO
The good news is that all this is fuel for Jaylen.
Someone gets it. It couldn't be more perfect ☘️☘️
Most Underrated Shooting Guard of All Time
Way better than James Harden
@@DJ_-currently yes, prime Harden tho. Prime Harden was an era of madness
@@Unconvinced1FACTS
Bam Adebayo more underrated than Jaylen Brown.
very arguable. i like both tho
The reason Boston media hates JB, and they do, is bc they dont like basketball, and bc Brown is a dark-skinned Black man who is invested in community work, outspoken about civil rights, and getting paid for his excellence. The national media is no better. Brown is soft-spoken, he doesnt get in trouble, his team loves him and responds to him, his coaches rave about him and his work ethic...but hold up, SAS got a text from someone.
Facts 😂
I like how they throw friendly jabs but you can tell they cool. 💯💯 love sports man
The 76ers could have drafted Jaylen Brown rather than Ben Simmons. The 76ers could have drafted Jayson Tatum instead of Markel Fultz. Imagine how good the 76ers could have been. As a Celtics fan, I am very happy that everything worked out as it did.
Me too ☘️
This is because Jayson Tatum is a spoiled brat that always gets practically 100% of the credit when the Celtics are successful. But it’s always Jaylen Brown’s fault when the team loses. But it’s never Tatum’s fault when the team loses.
Why don't Luka get this type of treatment when he fails
What media do you watch
This can't be far from the truth lol
ESPN's analysts said Tatum was not playing well even if they won. That's from the Cavs series
Lol Tatum is nailed to a cross if the Celtics lose, especially if he doesn’t get at least 30 pts in that loss
@@keeganandersson4281 But when Luka loses he's free no criticism or anything but yet he wins all these awards every year and never is held accountable when his team loses ....They kill Tatum
Finally you got Jay Williams back! He’s the best of the best on NBA analysis
Underrated by the media, not underrated by the fans and the city of Boston. He got the top contract bag
A underrated 300 million dollar max player.......makes sense.
That’s his team showing appreciation… has nothing to do with him being snubbed.
You’re a wage slave
I can make it make sense for you. It's your reasoning error -- as you're thinking someone called him "underpaid" and not "underrated" Pay isn't an opinion.
Wait until he goes cold and starts choking and turning the ball over. ESPN is hilarious 😂
Celtics being criticized for achieving success. Bring #18🏆
Derrick White is the Celtics' most consistent player. He shows up every night when Tatum and Brown don't. It's not even close
I would say trade Tatum for GIANNIS but the Bucks dont want Tatum
Celtics would never trade Tatum. If he wins the chip this year his numbers are way better than Giannis. So, nooo the Bucks can keep Giannis and being a 1st round exit. ✌🏽

What load is Shai carrying smh that whole team is nice
*SOURCE:*
The NBA assistant general manager also said that Brown’s high level of intelligence and inquisitive nature could intimidate some general managers and coaches. He added that he is a good kid who “doesn’t fit the mold of a so-called basketball player.”
“He is an extremely intelligent kid,” the NBA assistant general manager said. “He took a graduate school class at Cal in his freshman year. He is a person who is inquisitive about everything. Because he is so smart, it might be intimidating to some teams. He wants to know why you are doing something instead of just doing it. I don’t think it’s bad, but it’s a form of questioning authority.
“It’s not malicious. He just wants to know what is going on. Old-school coaches don’t want guys that question stuff.”
~2016 article from Marc J. Spears, look it up.
Jaylen Browns NBA destiny will always be about protecting Tatums legacy
Lmao fr
So many people saying Indiana has the best offense when it’s just wrong
I been saying for years that Jaylen Brown is the best player on the Celtics... Anyone watching basketball can see that 💯
The question wasn't who would you replace Brown for. It was is he the most underrated.
I'm glad Isaiah Thomas checked Stephen A on this issue.
The west cost beat is fire 😊
I've been saying for 3 yrs, that it's a legit question on who's actually better between Tatum and Brown, especially when the "break them up" narrative was out there and everyone was picking Brown to be moved, and as for being the highest paid player, that's where the Max was at the time, he's a max player, there would be a lot 300 million dollar players in the league if that was where the max was at when all the big names were eligible for it, so that highest paid play argument is null, JB has been the best player on the court for the Celtics COUNTLESS times, including their last NBA Finals appearance and low-key this Playoff run, but it's rarely covered that way.
I been ignored by better people 😂😂 I’m going use that 😂
Brown 2016
Tatum 2017
How many rings? 0
Jordan paired up with Pippen 4 years later start of the 3 peat.
So to say either is elite is funny. But yet they talk about either one, like they should be in the jordan,lebum category.
No winny this year trade them both.
Thats when they were drafted. Michael was in the league for a couple years and dominating before scottie came around. Also, not performing as well as MICHAEL JORDAN isn't really a knock on someone lol
I don’t at this point why we we don’t talk about jaylen brown as the MVP
Lmfaooooooooo at Stephen a and j Williams
Last year it was Jrue Holiday
The REAL issue is that the media AND fans decided to crown JT too early when Jaylen was right there. The 2019 allstar selection is the PRIME example, when Brown had the same stats and BETTER efficiency AND better defense, but no votes. This is before JT started habdling the ball a lot too, but the narrative was that the offense was running through him even though their usage was the same smh
Tatum averaged 23 in his first all star selections that year and Brown 20. 3ppg more is a significant amount more. Tatum also had one more rebound and assist per game as well that year and slightly more steals and blocks. So idk if that's as prime example as your making it out to be.
No he talking about at the time of the selections both were avg 20.6 ppg it was identical with jb having more defensive stats while JT had a slight increase in assist. But because the Celtics were out right the #1 team in the east with JT,jb and kemba they only invited JT and kemba. JT increased his avg to 23 ppg after the monster Feb where he avg almost 25 to 30 for a month straight@@jammer9941
Thank you jay will I couldn’t say it better
Before JB got drafted, they said he was “too smart” for the NBA. It might be true. Buddy is articulate and speaks when necessary on necessary topics. He doesn’t ever really say nor do too much. It’s hard to dislike someone who doesn’t give you a real reason.
With that said, he’s a $300M player as a #2 option. How is he underrated?
Stephen A’s source is someone who works for and represents the NBA. The same NBA that doesn’t like intelligent, outspoken, and sociopolitically in tune players. Of course they’ll say Jaylen Brown is not liked. The guy is liked amongst all his peers. Pay attention to the wording that was used, “it’s that he’s not liked because of his I am better than you attitude.” The NBA offices and execs have to deal with him because he’s the VP of the players association. They don’t like that he’s intelligent and can articulate well so they’re flipping it into arrogance because they can’t have their way with him. Textbook tactics, and I’ll leave it at that.
Facts jb true
Jaylen is more overhated than underrated
Jay will put it perfectly under appreciated
Kimberly Kamano never thought I was fit for Groundskeeping or Laborer because of me.

I would make the argument it is harder to have greater numbers on a good team.
Crazy they say Brown doesn’t have to carry the same load as other guys but he’s been carrying a guy who’s supposedly better than him this entire postseason.
Tatum still has scored 5 more points this playoffs while also leading the Celtics in rebounds and assists its not like Brown has been overwhelmingly better....
@@jammer9941 5 more points? You’re joking right? I guess It would seem that way if your only basis is stats. You can literally watch the games and see it for yourself Brown has CLEARLY been the better player thus far.
Who was the best player in that warriors vs Boston series? It wasn’t JT for those that watched the series
The highest contract stuff doesn't matter. It just means a star signs a supermax. That is literally it. When any other star signs a supermax, they will become the "highest contract ever". Jrue Holiday and Tingus Pingus are both making more than Brown THIS season.
