I don't understand how anybody in management has watched our team in the playoffs and said "Our biggest problem? Jaylen Brown". For whatever JB's faults, the reason we have lost to an underdog in 3 out of 4 seasons has little to do with JB, or his salary slot.
The biggest reasons we lost against the 76ers were 1) being unprepared, 2) not making adjustments either in-game or between games. So, we saw the same offensive and defensive schemes exploited over and over again. Brad addressed Queta's inability to stay on the floor by adding Robinson, but he's done little to answer why so many players showed a steep regression in the postseason.
The team clearly needs a fresh set of eyes on the bench. Since the title team Charles Lee has left. JVG has left. The team's coaching is poorer than it was.
Joe isn't getting replaced, but why not supplement the bench? It doesn't impact the salary cap, so why not invest in improving the team where we can?
