Jaylen Brown appreciation thread

[SHAQATTACK]

All things great

[celts55]

For all the talk about Tatum, Horford and others, Jaylen has been absolutely balling this postseason. Averaging around 25 PPG on 54% shooting(!), and shooting 37% from 3 which might also be a bit skewed because he had one game against Miami where he was like 1-8. He's been a beast and has been consistent too. The mid-range has been lethal.

Honestly, forget Tatum vs. Ant. Is Ant better than Jaylen? Jaylen also has a lethal mid-range game and plays elite defense too. I'm definitely half-joking but again, JB has been awesome this postseason. Even defensively he's stepped up along with Jrue Holiday and locked down other stars.

I know you said you were half joking, but I’ve been watching both conference finals. So far Brown has definitely been more impressive. Ant really didn’t do much last night. I haven’t watched enough of him to make a decision on him yet. But judging from these games, which tells me if you can step up, I’d have to take Brown.
If only he didn’t make me so nervous when he’s at the free throw line

JB and JT are awesome. The Celtics are fortunate to have two of the top wings in the game, on top of having the best defensive backcourt. We’re not far away from adding the tallest guy left in the playoffs who is also a good shooter. Let’s go Celtics.

Antman has gone from rated to overrated real quick. Lots of excuses for his underwhelming performance the past few games. Even his game 7 against Denver was a stinker

Crazy dunk on Turner tonight. Jaylens finishing is stellar right now.

Just last season Jaylen was widely accepted as better than “ant man” and was second team all nba while ant wasn’t all nba at all…in my opinion Jaylen got better this year and somehow they swapped. “Ant man” second team Jaylen off altogether.
To me they’re more comparable then Tatum/edwards

Series MVP Jaylen Brown.

Series MVP Jaylen Brown.

Been awesome the entire playoffs.  And Dallas doesn't have anyone who can guard him.

Series MVP Jaylen Brown.

Does he impact winning, though?

[SparzWizard]

If we win NBA Finals I'll remove my #JTJB sig. But I still expect Brown to perform at a high rate in the Finals, keep making big plays and all. Winning the ECF MVP is trivial matter, the next trophy is the important one 

[aefgogreen]

According to Wikipedia, he just won the eastern conference, MVP. Congrats to JB!

Team plays better with him on the bench, I've read.

Trading JB just seems like a laughable concept at the moment.

[DefenseWinsChamps]

His competitive edge was pretty awesome in this series, and this season so far. His defense has been really good, and I love the bully ball he and Tatum used against the Pacers defenders.

Since the opposite of everything you’ve said has happened, Sparz, please please please don’t remove your sig for the next series
