This was a great sequence of plays. While we started with a 9pt lead in the 4th and Brown had had a fairly poor game to this point, he went lights out and led the Celtics to a 7-0 run to put the game away.
His patience in the post/paint has gotten so much better even just from last year and it makes a
That one play where he gets it on the baseline and starts back down the mismatch – OKC stunts the double team and that’s 100% a play where last year at the stunt he’s either immediately kicking it out or trying to drive and split the double and getting himself into trouble.
Instead he just holds his position cause he knows the ball is protected and waits for them to either commit to the double or not. They don’t so he takes the easy fadeaway over the smaller defender.
The King of the 4th!
This is really everything he does well. Reasonably tough turnaround jumper, lockdown defense, steal, dunk, drive and perfect kick.
Great sequence! He was on fire.
I’m glad he turned it around because the start was rough for him. Shows mental fortitude to be able to keep shooting and not give up and end up playing amazing to close it out. Love to see it
