As if the Cs did not have enough problems, Jaylen Brown tweets his preference for a black coach...maybe? Was that really necessary? I don’t think so.
Jaylen has access to Brad, and should have expressed his ‘analytics’ to Brad. I take a couple of things from the tweet.
1. Jaylen is trying to pressure the Cs into hiring a black coach. This would be unnecessary if the Cs are listening to him privately.
2. Jaylen does not respect management or the process if they have any, hence his need to go to social media.
3. Jaylen wants out of Boston because the sure fire way to get out of dodge is insubordination.
4. And this is an alternative to 3...Jaylen wants to insulate himself from being traded because the last thing Boston can do now is trade a black player for expressing an opinion about the relative efficiency of black coaches.
5. By prefacing the tweet with ‘Analytics’...Jaylen was taking a shot at Brad who we all know is a big analytics guy.
All in all..horrible tweet.
It's incredibly sad that the only stuff your brain conjures makes Brown look like a bad guy.
Dunno why you think negative like that. You could just as easily have come up with equally viable positive imaginations.
You might want to look into Hanlon's Razor.
Please come up with the positives. Thanks!!
He made a racial tweet. Any other race making that tweet in any other industry will be a problem. He could have praised those coaches for their achievement and black pride without prefacing it with ‘Analytics’. With how smart y’all say Brown is, you have assume he knew exactly what he was doing.
Analytics is the science of logical decision making. His team is in the process of hiring a coach. So Brown pointing out the racial composition of the last 7 coaches means what? And why make it public. What if Brad came out with advances analytics that shows the opposite? Have we not been trying to debunk the idea of race-based superiority? Why it okay for him to do it?
How does his tweet advance race relations?
No - I won't.Because I'm genuinely worried you can't do it yourself. And I want to find out if you can.
In order to assess peoples intent, you'd have to at least be able to come up with as many good-natured as bad-natured intents.
Unless of course you're sitting on evidence that Brown's inherently evil.
Anyone can slander. I could write a topic called "That Ogaju Topic" where I outline in 5 different scenarios how you're trying to make Brown look like a bad guy.
There's a reason I don't. It's the same reason I didn't create a topic "That JB Tweet" outlining 5 different scenarios in which Brown is trying to undermine Brad and/or the Celtics.
Because we can't just randomly assume things and present them as facts, or as the only options.
