Jaylen Brown has All-NBA performance, Boston Celtics defense finally fuels win



Jaylen Brown had an incredible night against the Brooklyn Nets. His All-NBA level performance on both ends of the floor helped the Celtics get their first defense-fueled win of the season. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm discuss Brown’s performance, the improved defense ahead of Robert Williams’ return, and then wonder if there’s a blueprint developing for how to defend the Celtics?

    Jaylen is on an absolute tear right now. He’s also been turning it up on defense and his comments postgame about how defense will be key in getting back to the Finals was encouraging. But these guys have to get the turnovers down. Granted, 9 of tonight’s were from Tatum but it needs to change. If they get back to the Finals, and face say GSW or Phoenix, either of those squads will feast on TOs and get out in transition for easy buckets. Anyway we’ve got a ways to go and overall I’m thrilled with this team. Thanks John & Tom. ☘️🔒

    JB is the best 1st quarter scorer in the league. If he played like Kobe he could have like a dozen 70 point games by now.

    Teams figuring out a way to defend against the Celtics was also something that has crept into my mind since the second Miami game. Because when one team does it successfully, every other team can just simply go and do the same. It does worry me a little. The Celtics are already capable of winning in different ways, we already know this. But having to change up offensive styles could be a whole other issue/challenge they’ll have to face. Thank you for doing what you btw John. You’re an inspiration as I’m an aspiring Celtics/NBA beat writer from London, UK. Your work is truly amazing and hope to get to your level one day. I plan on moving to the states soon so I can realise my dreams. I would love to talk to you briefly over email one day over any potential remote beat writing internships or any other similar opportunities. Thanks John☘️

    I think Jaylem makes at least the All-Star team., if not All-NBA. Hard to name 6 other guards having a better year so far. I'm also thinking Brogden has a shot at 6th man award.
