If Brown can give 6 plus assists and 3 or less turnovers like tonight, he will fit a lot better in his current role on the team. I just don't think he can consistently do that, which is the problem.
He can do it. He just needs tothat getting teammates involved is more important than grinding out super-difficult buckets.
Jaylen averages 23 points on 52/38/70 shooting with 5 boards 3 assists and 2.4 turnovers. To most eyes I’d say those are all-star worthy numbers. But he does have sloppy games once a while and sloppy quarters occasionally. Still, he’s undoubtedly a guy most teams would love to have. But here on CS every turnover is magnified.
He’s adjusting to 2 new significant offensive contributors AND a teammate in JT who has leaped from star to legit MVP candidate. The gap between JT and JB is wider than it’s ever been because JT has simply emerged as a no doubt top 5 player, not because JB is suddenly worse.
JB (I think) is finding his way with a 20ppg big in the starting 5 and 2 all-around quality players to round out the starting 5. All have offensive skills, all can shoot the three, and Jaylen just needs to find his best ways to contribute. So far, he’s done that for this 8-2 team. I think he’s a terrific player and I’m glad he’s here.
