If the most we get out of the Nets picks is Jaylen, it was still a wonderful success.
I'd like to hit pay dirt on more than just Jaylen to justify that trade.
why would it need more than jaylen to justify trading away a pair of expensive veterans who were done, finished, over the hill and would not have helped the celtics?

to get a kid with brown's abilities for the corpses of KG and pierce is great. that there MAYBE another couple of good draft picks  and you can color me tickled pick. (and does anyone truly think the nets will make the playoffs soon?)

Yeah, I am, and you should be too. It's no longer a dumpster fire over in Brooklyn, now that King and Hollins are out.

Not only are you right about Brown but we also have to recognize that we already have gotten more than him for KG and Pierce. The trade exception that came from Pierce is currently our leading scorer.

Jaylen the 2nd highest scoring average of all rookies after Embiid. First among this year's class. Recently pointed out on ESPN.

 Way to go Jaylen!!

as off yesterday box scores
, jaylen outperforming hield,dunn,ingram,bender-hield had a bad shooting night yesterday,ingram only got a few minutes,bender saw only a few also
unfortunately brooklyn beat indiana

You've got to remember that Embiid is still classified as a rookie and put in a better show than Brown IMO, as long as 'The Process' can stay healthy I think due to his central role on the 6ers/minutes Embiid has rookie of the year rapped up.

Embiid may be regarded as a rookie, but Rollie did write 'Jaylen outperforming his rookie class'

The ley being the reference to 'his rookie class'.
To be more correct, they are the same rookie class. They are different draft classes.

But it somehow wont matter because he isnt starting on a team destined for less than 20 wins. Even though he is shooting over 40% from the field (yea he is being careful, I would too surrounded by vets.)

Why single out me? I was responding to two other people trying to correct people. I feel like the guy who retaliates and gets called for the foul...

They are about to go 1-3. A bit premature to say they aren't horrible.

If Jaylen ends up being Paul George type player it doesn't matter what the other Brooklyn picks end up being. Every veteran on this team is replaceable and this includes Avery Bradley and IT. The future of the Celts comes down to young people like Rozier and Brown.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
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".
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Ingram is now hurt with a bad knee. Jaylen Brown and Embiid are looking like grade A rookies right now.
And Embiid is two and a half years older than Brown. So we've got that going for us.

Also: I think even though Jaylen and Embiid are in different draft classes (because they were drafted in different years) they are in the same rookie class (since they're both rookies right now).
