No Jaylen Brown on top 25 players of first 25ish games? Outlandish!

Jaylen is having an All Star year but doesn't make this list, that's nuts!

Ringer staff is Philly centric. Plus hard to knock the guys they have on list, really. Who would he replace?

Tatum came to mind...


Drummond
Adebayo
Mitchell
Gobert
Jokic
Simmons

Dudes from losing teams: Drummond, Ingram, Young, Beal... I think Brown should be on the list ahead of Tatum this year.

[jambr380]

Hard to complain as we already have two guys on the list (many teams have 0).

I would definitely replace Tatum with Brown, though. Kemba and Brown are the clear top two for the Cs this season, imo.

To be honest, I'd rather have Jaylen Brown and an averaging starting point guard versus Ben Simmons and an average starting small forward.

I was glad to see they're giving Kemba credit.  Even if his counting stats aren't as high as they were last year, he's been awesome.

I know a couple of their public facing voices on pods are philly fans. But they have a lot of Boston/Knicks/Lakers fans too.

I think its just because most of the staff only watch some of Boston and Tatum is the bigger name.

KAT must have The Ringer's staff tongues....

How in the world did he get THAT high on the list..no defense playin' behind............................................

And Jaylen Brown is the new Rodney Dangerfield of the NBA.

Just keep on the path JB, they will see eventually!

LeBron in front of Davis is a joke too.

But he's leading the league in assists!  A stat that definitely means something now that LeBron is doing it!  Nevermind that nobody seemed to care when Harden or Rondo did it!

Those guys are stat ladders, unlike LeBron!

Not really.  The Lakers are +9.6 when Lebron is on court and only +0.3 when he's off court.  With AD on court they are +6.3 but with him off court they are still +3.8.

Jaylen should be ahead of Drummond, Booker, Ben Simmons and Trae Young. Glad Kemba is on there.

I also think Jaylen plays with more heart than Jimmy Butler.

[gouki88]

He's definitely ahead of JT for me
