Jaylen sure looks the part of future star. This is why people need to be careful when looking at stats for rookies. Jaylen is going to get the right amount of playing time to develop without having the burden of carrying a horrible team. His experience with a solid playoff squad should pay dividends later.
He won't get the shot attempts/points other guys will, but it sure will be fun watching him throw down ferocious dunks and hitting impossible turnaround jumpers. Everything looks so effortless for him right now. He just needs to learn how to play the NBA game.
There were a lot of guys who were against him on this board. However, we don't know if he is going to be great yet. Way too premature. We do know he is going to be a player at least.
And I'm on your side, I've loved Jaylen since the combine.
I was part of that group. I wanted Murray, and to a lesser extent, Hield, and an even lesser extend Bender (i guess you could say i wanted Dunn too, but only for a trade). Brown never appealed to me, as I always saw him as an out of control guy who couldnt shoot and only played defense: the Danny Ainge prototype.
So far, I've been dead wrong. And I'm happy i was wrong, and am willing to admit i was wrong. He looks great so far. Hopefully he develops into our next "guy".
