The decision making on offense is just horrific at times. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player be so careless with the ball. Seems like his reaction time and ability to read the defense is slow as well. Not sure if this is something he can improve on much at this stage of his career.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

He became a much better shooter than anyone expected. But the free throws continue to be bad, and as you said he turns it over every time. He takes hero ball 3s at the worst time. I just don't want him. I'd trade him for Anthony Davis in a heartbeat even though AD is much older. Or JB for Karl Towns... JB for Karl Towns... I will take a day to be an Uber driver but the kind where they drive the fancy black SUV, and even drive him to Logan. i got you JB.

He is a selfish player who thinks he is a Rottweiler while actually a Labrador.

He has good hard skills like shooting, jumping, etc. And has shown tremendous improvement there

He has average soft skills like reading the game, defensive awareness, etc.

Talented player but I’m ready to move on and fully build around Tatum.

Yes, he is.  I know that because he’s always telling everyone.

I’ve heard that literally since we drafted him and absolutely nothing he’s ever said or done has made me believe he’s a high IQ person.

I’m not putting ALL the blame on him tonight. There were a lot of no shows. But Brown is not a 1B. He’s not even a 2 on a champion team.

Who is he a 2 to that wins a title? Giannis? Doubt it, depending on the rest of the roster. LeBron? Not a chance. Doncic? Nope. Jokic, eh. Butler? Ha.

He’s also a selfish player

Im not so sure about that, TBH. He regularly puts his foot in his mouth. Seems like Brown thinks he’s smarter than he actually is.

"His sloppy dribbling, his reaction time, his inability to read the defense, on & on and on we go.

Jaylen Brown is just a dumb basketball player - can't say it much simpler than that.

We'd be trading one choker for another. If Brown makes you mad, Towns would drive you insane, he's probably the softest player in the league.

He does have this opinion of himself as some sort of intellectual.
Why else would some kid from Atlanta go all the way across the country to play his college ball at Cal-Berkley ?
He embarrasses himself when he massacres the English language trying to sound sophisticated.

Agreed. Like JB, Towns is super talented, but a low IQ player as well.
