Jaylen Brown is not the player you want



I’ve seen Jaylen brown talk on this thread cause he’s young and athletic and rated as a good defender (tho I’d say overrated on that end)

[**Jaylen Brown**](https://www.statmuse.com/nba/player/jaylen-brown-9449) **averaged 22.7 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 20 games in the 2023 playoffs.**

this is not a supermax player, let alone the #1 option on any team which is what it may take to secure his service. when Tatum was trash, Jaylen did not step up, and in many cases, like tonight, the reason why the team struggled.

​

lets never talk about trading for this guy ever again.

    Future Raptors Legend Anfernee Simons would never

    No seriously, the dude can actually dribble the ball

  2. mMounirM

    Portland can have him. We’ll send Siakam to Boston. and we’ll get the Portland package back.

    Isn’t Grant Williams a FA this off-season? Much rather try to snag that dude

  4. Legitimate-Row7081

    sure brown is def not a number 1 option on a contending team or worth a supermax, but we dont have that guy as well. What’s your point?

    Who is a worse ball handler, OG or Brown?

    Brown has trouble handling the ball but that can be fixed.. heā€™s young and had one bad series.. he was great last year playoffs and first 2 series.. his stock is low now so Iā€™d take him easy.. and we donā€™t have to pay him a supermax.

    JB shit the bed as a second option in a great system what makes u think he can run a team as a first option ? If he played in place of Pascal this szn with the raps poorly constructed roster weā€™d be celebrating about drafting wemby rn

  8. TensionX1

    I personally never wanted or considered wanting him on my team, there’s something about his personality that rubs people the wrong way.

    Meanwhile bill Simmons calling this role player a top 25 player. The homers were brutal to listen to this week. Tobias Harris 2.0

  10. 5fives5

    Yeah he’s definitely not the guy for the Raps

  11. IonHazzikostasIsGod

    Had boatloads of Raptors fans calling us delusional homers for saying Siakam was a level above him and Bam. That discussion is kaput!

  12. Interesting-Test180

    Imagine having 2 wings as stars with no real pg so your playing aau ball until it doesnā€™t work

    When you watch a team like this flame out so hard, you realize that your own players (Siakam, OG) are so damn valuable.

    What a reminder this series was.

    Saltics ftl, what a way to go out with the fakest comeback in professional sports ever.
