Just saw an interview of Jayson Tatum on ESPN and was asked about the team's winning in the playoffs and being counted out each series and he replied "Like JB says, its working. Let them think that." I have seen a couple of people(players/reporters) talk about what Brown says behind the scenes. Stephen A Smith was quoting Brown on ESPN about talking about the team growth and so forth.
Now Kyrie was brought on for this to be his team. He would be the alpha and lead this team. But, IMO, as Brown does things like playing through pain, leading the team in scoring, rallying his team mates courtside and become a 2 way terror, all in just his 2nd playoffs, is this team eventually going to turn out to be his team? He seems to have that drive, that swagger, that special something to lead a team.
It would not surprise me in the least if by next year's playoffs are over that this is looked at as Brown's, more so than it will be Kyrie's. Maybe that's too early but Brown's improvement curve is beyond exponential. His talent, drive, intelligence, work ethic and willingness to play big in big moments, makes me wonder if Brown has what it takes to someday take control of this team of excellent talents and become the next Celtic captain.
