Gilbert Arenas calls out Jaylen Brown “He was the 3rd pick in the NBA Draft. The first 3 games, just like Bronny. Bronny was 6-26, and Jaylen Brown was 5-26 in his first 3 games in summer league.”

not saying gil is right or wrong but its funny how we base everything off raw fga/fgm

Arenas using a stats based argument? Somebody check those numbers lol

Bronny 2032 FMVP confirmed.

Jaylen was also 5 inches taller, and didn’t suck in college.

Gilbert trained Bronny when he was a kid. He don’t wanna his most famous student to make him look bad 😂.

This shit is so dumb. Brown was just talking hoops in an honest conversation with his girl he wasn’t trying to make headlines or publicly say it.
mmaguy123
The difference is Jaylen had a track record and body of work outside the summer league (hence why he was the #3 pick) lol. Bronny doesn’t have significant prospect level accomplishments in basketball outside junior year of high school.

Least delusional Gilbert Arenas take.

Jaylen Brown truly has improved after every offseason

Bold move cotton. Let’s see if it pans out for him.

Is Bronny also going to awaken his 3rd eye and gain access to a higher plane of reality?
RickySuela
This shit is all so dumb. Bronny has three years to prove he’s worth another contract, if he doesn’t, then that’s it for him. But it’s not like if he doesn’t play great this week then his career is over. It’s stupid how much everyone cares about a teenager who was picked at the end of the draft. Odds are overwhelming that he’ll never be any kind of factor at all, so why get so worked up about some dude who’s probably just gonna be in the G-League for the next few years?

Gilbert Arenas style is basically just to zag on everything

Jaylen also averaged 9 free throws a game in his first summer league. He was raw for sure but celtics fans were pretty encouraged

Jaylen is 6’6” and a much better athlete.

I think we’re forgetting that Jaylen Brown dad isn’t playing with him as one of the best ever players, no shit bronny is going to get hate when he sucks.

If your problem with how bronny James plays basketball has anything to do counting stats, you don’t know a damn thing about basketball. If homie was hustling like a second round pick should and even looked like he had a clue on how to play organized basketball I would care if he missed every shot.
The real issue with James is he looks like a high school freshman playing organized basketball for the first time and even worse he is showing very little hustle for second round pick who should be desperate to make the team.
Brown was a third pick in the draft and played his summer league games like a guy who was undated trying to make the team. He also understood basic basketball movements and never once looked like a guy who was entitled to spot on the roster.
Comparing Bronny to brown in anyway is ridiculous.
socialistbcrumb
Jaylen Brown is 6’6” and was an obvious plus athlete in addition to actually having a good college career. Jaylen wasn’t talking about summer league stats he was talking about the fact Bronny doesn’t measure up to his eye test. Also, it was just a conversation with his girlfriend, who also plays basketball, not a public callout.
UtahUtopia
Nah. Bronny 6’1”
Diligent-Plant1976
Attacking Jaylen back doesn’t deny Bronny is playing like shit. Gimme a reason why he deserves that contract rather than attacking the people criticizing him.
simonffplayer
JB averaged 15 for a cal team that went 23-11. he also has obvious athletic traits
Fabtacular1
You can tell Gil’s not watching. It’s not even the stats. It’s the eye test. He’s just straight up passive and doesn’t even play intelligently.
If he was 6’6” everyone could get behind him as a development prospect. Like maybe he could become a strong Lance Stephenson type guard.
But at 6’2” you can’t be like “with development, patience and a bit of luck he may just become a a backup-level PG.”

So what Arenas is saying is he expects Bronny to continue on the path Jaylen Brown was on and become a fmvp? Is this what he is saying?
Sweatytubesock
Wow, Gil sucked.
Shingorillaz
Gil is like if it wasn’t Bronny y’all wouldn’t hate on the 55th pick but if it wasn’t Bronny Gil wouldn’t be defending the 55th pick either.

All this from a lip read is crazy

Alex Sarr is playing worse than Bronny I think too

Gilbert has crazy eyes.

Gilbert needs to mind his own business.

This isn’t calling him out? Why lie
InsaneEcho
I’m not even gonna lie I just want Bronny to be an average NBA player so I don’t have to hear the pendulum of him being overhyped and overhated constantly

WHY ARE WE EVEN LISTENING TO HOT TAKE GIL??? THIS DUDE IS WORSE THAN STEPHEN A

Jaylen Brown never said Bronny wasn’t a pro because of his lack of production in the summer league.
kmagic13
Is Gil part of Klutch or something? He always quick to defend Lebron and have been defending Bronny nonstop

But brown made it to the league because he was good not because he had a famous father

What did Bronny do in college vs Brown again?…..

The real question is why so much airtime is being spent talking about the performance of a 2nd round pick when the consensus is that he got into the NBA because of his dad. Bronny is a 2nd round pick who maybe shouldn’t even have been one.
This kind of performance is not unexpected — but it’s magnified 10-fold when ESPN makes your games an event. They were literally giving his airballs multiple slow motion replays.
Even worse, hot take NBA trolls like Arenas are dining out on the poor kid’s struggles. It’s ugly.

I wonder how he can talk with Lebron’s dick in his mouth
