  1. love your content and production. you combine basketball IQ and entertaining script, and the videos don't hurt either. more power.

  2. So happy for Jaylen Brown. He’s always been second fiddle unnecessarily and I’ve hated it bc he’s so good

  3. from the 2024 playoffs i felt like i could see this coming, jaylen brown has always been not that far behind tatum, if not better

  4. The thing about JB is that even if you make an attempt to LOOK like you're playing "good defense" on him, if you let him get to the elbow then you're not actually playing good defense on him because he is absolute cash money from there, any type of off-balance fadeaway it don't matter he's making that shit. It's the same deal as the legends of the past, you have to actually deny him his spots in the midrange to defend effectively otherwise he will completely cook you. His only weakness is taking care of the ball under pressure and double teams but this season without JT has been great practice for him to improve in that regard as well. Always trying to improve his game season after season and we're seeing it pay out in real time.

  5. Shoutout to that one guy who commented on a video from the 2023-24 season when the Clippers beat the Celtics saying "Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are a better version of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum"

    I will never forget you

  6. This is proof how they cramp each other's style. Maybe it's on Jason to adjust. I see why he's pushing to get back. He should sit out.

  7. ++ I'm 46 of age, born, raised, and live in St. Louis, MO sooooooo HEEECCCCKKKKK YEAH I want JT healthy… Jayson Tatum is a PHENOM PERIOD… now that I got that out the way… I'm a Celtics fan since the Big 3 (KG, Ray, Paul)… I knew YEEEAAARRRZZZ ago that JB was GREATNESS ON THE COURT… to me JT and JB are ALMOST the same player… I flip flop as to who's better ONLY BECAUSE JT does play defense but, not as Agile…whereas… JB is a STRONG 2-Way and his ATHLETIC ABILITY IS FREAKISH whats sadly understandable is the fact that we're catch'n him since 2023/24 on the down turn of that Ability because we don't stay spring chicken's forever… But, JB still has the EDGE… What we as Celtic AND Basketball fans are overlooking is that fact that you have TWO true #1s… No other team has had THAT that I can remember… KD didn't have it in OKC, SUNS, nor BRKLYN, KOBE didn't in LA, Jordan didn't have it in Chicago, Dwayne didn't in Miami… Yah Dah… Yah Dah… So, the Celtics are NOT better off without JT but, JB has to seize these/this moment(s) to slay EVERY PHUQ'N giant in front of him and the C's… Since, the 25/26 season they lost some games that THEY SHOULD HAVE WON due to lack of defensive attention and intensity regarding the pick-n-roll at the top of the key… I be literally screamin' at the TV…LOOOOLLL… BUUUTTTT, I repeat the Celtics have 2 TRUE #1s… it's going to come down to Coaching and EGO… and Sooo far it looks like both the Coaching and EGOS are harmonizing like a fine tuned symphony… LEEEETTTSSS GOOOOOO… buuu, whuu Doo I kno… #Shalom #My2Centxsx

  8. Why? They should absolutely doing this, it's the "without Tatum they aren't anything" sentiment said by many idiots being problematic, the celtics are a disciplined team with a roster that fits their play style, yes it's not a luxury roster anymore but that was luxury, luxury gets you over in playoffs doesn't mean that much in regular season, in regular season a well rounded roster even with lesser names that works well together always gives decent results, and on top of that they have a All NBA 1st or 2nd team level core player in Jaylen Brown, how in the world this team can be bad? And the more important part is, are they that good? No not really, they are 3rd in the weakass east, if you put the celtics in the west, and count in most west teams are decent they could lose 3-4 games more, they are more likely to be around 6-10, the play-in spot, that's still better than some idiot's projection but that's not breaking the league as vids like this suggested. The celtics does exactly what they should be doing, they should downgrade from a championship contender to a playoff 2nd round team and their result suggest that too.

  9. I’ve always thought that Tatum was the most overrated “superstar” in the league and that Brown was the best player on the Celtics all these years. This season is proving that right! Tatum has always been carried by Brown and Derrick White

  10. Absolutely no respect for a polymarket sponsor, somehow even worse than gambling. Moral compass where?

  11. I admit, I expected Cs to tank, especially without frontcourt. But Joe Mazzulla thought different. The most underrated coach.

  12. Crazy part is you didnt even mention Payton Pritchard who can on any given night put up 25-30 on a derrick white or jb off night. This team is so dangerous

  13. Derick White's on/off numbers have him as an average player on an average defensive team. His 3 pt shooting has him as slightly below average. True shooting is considerably BELOW average.

  14. Stop saying what Brown SHOULDNT be doing ,
    He’s top Five right now. Period. Your are talking about a Efc mvp a finals mvp and a CHAMPION. He’s doing EXACTLY what people like you have failed to realize he’s capable of doing.

  15. Dude, you're missing the key points: Top coaching & player development, & defensive identity. They would not have wins by Brown along without whole team playing 2nd best D in the league.

  16. Don't understand why the ECF and Finals MVP is treated like a second rate player. Jaylen Brown is the true leader of this team. He's a STUD. Top 5 player in the league.

  17. As a Celtics fan since 2007-08 when I was only 13, I honestly always thought JB was our best player as good as JT is.

  18. Not for nothing, but for serious Celtics' fans this is hardly news. Anyone who has seriously followed the team for years knows just how good JB is. I mean, remember that this is a guy who came into the NBA with most people seeing him (correctly) as more of a raw athletic talent. He didn't have much of a jumper, didn't have a repertoire of moves or handles. He was a pure athlete, good defender with length.

    Now you look at what JB has added over the years and it is literally one of the most incredible development stories in the NBA. It's truly incredible when you look at JB now compared to who he was when he was drafted. The guy has put in an insane level of work to learn and improve new skills and become a superstar. Talent is everywhere in the NBA…work ethic like JB's is generational.

  19. it's so wild… there's a zillion "how can the Celtics be doing this" headlines out there. Guys, Jaylen Brown is an All-Star and a Finals MVP. Peyton Pritchard was 6th Man of the Year. Derrick White is a chronically underrated guard that nearly always makes the right play offensively or defensively. Sure Queta and Walsh have bit of a surprise but the Celtics being very competitive shouldn't be a surprise

  20. Probably the reason the Celtics have been good this season is because they are a +4.7 points per 48 minutes in Jaylen Browns 1085 minutes and a +12 points per 48 minutes in the 547 minutes Brown has been out or injured. Whoever has been getting Brown's minutes is doing one heck of a job. They're way better when he's not playing.

  21. I knew Jaylen Brown was this good, but he always had to take a back seat to Tatum. During the starting of the playoffs when the celtics won the championship. Friends asked me who would u rather have Tatum or Brown? I said Brown. Tatum struggles just making a simple drive and layup. Then he won MVP. I feel they still should have won against the Knicks without Tatum, because I know Brown is that good, and I am glad he is getting his shot to prove how good he is and doesn't need Tatum. Tatum just holds him back. GO CELTICS.
