Legs and JJ are two of the very few national media members bringing common sense to Celtics discourse
KP has been a HUGE positive influence on JB’s game, Tatum’s too. This team feels special man
hope you know that kp haven't been playing much all star all break. that is when brown has been going off
@@WestbrickFansGotNoBrains Brown’s had a great year in general is what I’m saying, obviously he’s doing more with KP out. Your reply makes no sense.
@@WestbrickFansGotNoBrainsYes, JB has been scoring much more now that KP is out, but that chemistry between those two has elevated Jaylen’s game. Because he got so comfortable with passing to KP, it’s made him better about facilitating and looking to pass to his teammates to get better shots, it adds another layer of difficulty when teams guard him. They know they can’t just double him and force him to take a bad shot, because they know he can just pass it out.
Reminds me of the 09 and 10 lakers squad, where everyone did what the team needed them to do and they truly like and enjoyed each other
@@lakersrdbest hate the lakers but I appreciate this comp 😂
JB has evolved every year. This is just natural progression, maturation. Amazing player just entering his prime
Jaylen Brown has been underrated all year. Always doing the little things for this Celtics team.
And in the finals, he was the only one hooping
@@tkbreen1381Tatum shot 48% from three in the finals
He has always been underrated!
@@Dachoseone2546you didn’t watch the games because you would see how terrible he played
@@tkbreen1381glad u said cause I sure was😂😂🫡
As a C's fan, I've come to the realization that while JT gives the team the highest ceiling due to his shot making, JB raises the floor of the team so much more than JT. When he's playing within the team he's damn near unstoppable, he's just a bit less likely to go supernova than JT
Their combination of Jaylen Brown taking over early game and saving Tatum minutes for later has given them so many blowout wins.
This comment is exactly what I was thinking just couldn’t articulate it as well as you
@@YouCanCallMeReTrogreat way to put it. I feel they alternate too, like JB is aggressive 1st, 3rd quarter and Tatum 2nd, and 4th
Thats great analysis 10/10
This is such a great way to put it
My guy JB has had enough of y'alls BS, the dunk contest, the no left hand and the turnovers! He's playing out of his mind right now 💪🏾☘
💯
absolutely love to see it
Him and Tatum gonna do a lot of humbling if they win the championship this year
took the rest of the league 7 years to see that jb and jt compliment each other PERFECTLY. they have the same core skills but their specializations balance each other out and when they're both on they are nearly undefeatable
Brown really heard everyone saying he doesn't deserve 300 mill.
He doesn't. Fringe all-star. 40th to 50th best player in the league.
@jonathansykes4986 you're smoking. He's a top 25 player and arguably the best second option in the league. Derrick white alone is already in the 40-50 range
@@jonathansykes4986Yeah your bball card has been revoked. You are banned from discussing basketball for 6 months.
@@tre017which is wild that ESPN kept white out the top 100 lol
@@tre017 If we’re talking about 2 way play he’s easily top 15.. he just doesn’t get recognition (until now) because the team is so OP..
jaylen is clearly in charge of the first quarter offense ....Tatum needs to heat up and they seem to be ok with Brown and Porz being in charge early
Opens up space for Tatum, especially if KP gets hot from 3… at some point with the C’s you have to pick which one of their top 6 you’re going to leave open
@@callumalston5755No one is the correct answer. Doubling any one of their starter is a choice one shouldn’t make. And then they bring in Hauser, PP and Al off the bench, you leaving any of them open? Nothing to do with how well the other team think they’re playing on defense, their best bet is literally just hoping the Celtics miss their shots.
@@Goodshit2000 exactly. Thats why we get so many open shots. Teams double JT early and hope that JT can pass
Kinda shows Tatum is not reliable as brown
Brown been on demon time
Kaido type stuff
JB did a deal with the devil where he had to do a horrible dunk contest to become better post all star weekend
all the dunks were meh. They just needed a scapegoat, and Shaq made that possible with his “viral” reaction.
JB said “ok then”
😂😂😂😂
Hes an in game dunker 100%. Not flashy ever but will crush it on your head. Always been the case.
Maybe he should permanently stitch that Michael Jackson glove into the meat of his hand. He’s been on fire.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
JB is honestly an All NBA player. You can’t deny how good he is. He always shows up in the playoffs too.
Sometimes, I think sports shows, opposing players, and coaches are trying to create a disruptive rivalry between JT and JB. Both guys are great and take turns being the best on the team.
literally..
literally do not have to bring up jt to talk ab jb.
Every year JT/JB get better, this year is no exception
JB finally getting some love from media people, it’s actually surprising but very much welcome.
I love JB. He is evolving ☘️
JB has been my favorite of the 2 for years.. only because he truly has that dawg in him
I watch most games. JB has Always been my favorite
It’s crazy how if you cut your left hand before the playoffs and all of a sudden people feel like you can’t dribble with your left hand
And injure your left wrist and elbow in game 1 of the ecf....
Cs are winning the whole thing if everyone is healthy. Thsts a big IF
I’m okay on JJ, but I love Legler. Very great insights, as close to unbiased views as you can get, I think he’s an amazing analyst.
Jaylens offensive game is so well rounded
Him and JT got crazy bag’s but JB more consistent as of late
I have always said the Gap between Tatum and Brown isn’t as massive as people think
Hot take but brown is better
Someone tried to tell me Fox is better than JB 😂. Go watch kings vs Celtics and let me know who’s better. Tatum was out that game too!
Idc who better but goin off 1 game is crazy
Could apply that to the sabonis vs ad debate.
@@KxngKareemyeah because Brown only has had 1 good game.
Both of them have me worried on the free throw line.Both of them got to work on that.
@@saelmirasolo245 never said that, ur comprehension skills are lacking
I love JB’s offense, his growth, his improvement in Assist to Turnover ratio, but his defense has been even more important!! Don’t sleep on JB’s defense. He’s a monster.
Been critical of JB in past years for stuff like his handle or his offball defense but he’s really stepped up this year man. Him and Tatum gel so well, the duo can’t last forever obviously but man they got it figured out as a team.
Why do people want to split them up so bad
@@isaahwilder2346 because they don't care to pay attention and forget their ages.
He's one of those players who adds something to his game every year. He started out as a raw athlete who couldn't dribble or shoot, but he added a corner three, a mid-range game, and better ball handling and passing abilities over time (even his left hand dribble looks better!). This year, he's become much better at recognizing his strength advantage over smaller guards on both ends of the floor. He's still an inconsistent free-throw shooter though given how solid he is at shooting!
After last years playoffs I was ready to dump JB. Too many iso plays, too many turnovers... But having watched nearly every Celtics game this season, Brown has become arguably their most valuable player night to night. Hes improved almost every aspect of his game, hes making unselfish plays and is simply a joy to watch. Boston seems to be clicking on all cylinders right now.
JB heard all the haters and he's responded.
I think the memes made people forget JB is like that!! a complete two way player
JB has been underrated. He is better and more complete than JT in lots of games.
Never seen a player get slandered so much based off one bad playoff series (in which he was injured) dude has played in 18 playoff series which is more than the majority of NBA players since he's been in the NBA and has ONE bad series to his name let that sink in. He better be All NBA and All defense this year, he's the one guarding the best player on most nights not White or Holiday.
Players have been slandered way worse than JB off of one series but besides that ur right
Jaylen Brown is to Vegeta as Jayson Tatum is to Goku. Or to Sasuke as Tatum is to Naruto.
He may not be the best overall out of the pair, but he's had moments where he was the superior player on the court. And when he does, chaos ensues for the opposing team.
Best analogy I seen for them😭
One can NOT lead the celtics to a title without the other, they both need each other, that said i never had a reason to make one of em the first or second option, theyre both leaders and both pick up each other’s slack
2:51 gotta love da level of interest JJ has for Legler’s words
Jb gets the flowers from me no doubt. The rest of the core fits so well together. Even a few bench players far exceed the expectations of what people thought. I could go on but let's just say it's a great time again with the Celtics. All the way up to Brad.
JB has been one of the most underrated players in the league for a couple of years now.
Don’t think the media has talked enough about how Porzingis unlocked Brown early in the season. Brown’s assists are way up and that started with their two man game
Go Cookies and and Cream!!!!
Nah dog keep that nickname to yourself.
Finally someone is giving him his respect!
His left handed dribble improved.
I love you guys! The amount of hate brown gets and always being under a lot of scrutiny is ridiculous. JJ you guys are the most sound analyst and I’m all for it!!!
I concur totally !!
I hate the Celtics but that boy been balling everytime I’ve seen them play can’t deny it
Thank YOU! He got that BAG and ELEVATED his game
There is no Boston Celtics without Brown. I can live without the other
Been a lifetime celtics fan and I've never thought tatum or brown were better than each other. I feel like they are equals
You can see the size Brown has added, he’s playing bully ball right now
Jaylen had 41 in that Nuggets game, and also went 7/14 at the free throw line.
his free throw struggles are so weird to me. such a great midrange shooter but horribly inconsistent from the line
Yeah but everybody else was bad. If Tatum or KP or even Derrick would have made 8 points , 3 points each even then they would have won. JB made it so the Celtics wouldn’t get blown out and made a mockery of. Say thank you
These two are easily the two best nba analysts around. Make Stephen A look like the hysterical fool he is.
I was just mentioning how much better JB has gotten to my dad recently. Even a blind man could clearly see the growth in his game. I’m glad it’s finally getting some media attention
Porzingis makes them more like team players not just 1 man crew and so the game become more watchable
Explain cause I think JB sets the tone diving for lose balls and stealing the ball on defense more than anyone lately. JT has JJ as took his foot off the gas.
Reported all the spam. I got you JJ!
Reported your comment for spam buddy
It does nothing
Why? It helps with the algorithm ,
This talk about jaylen brown reminds me of the debates between curry and klay pre KD. Celtics are trending towards a dynasty
I mean, the dude signed the richest contract in HISTORY, of course he has to prove that worth 😂
why? he already got his bag.
Tatum will be the highest paid player after this summer, and then it will be Luka ect. These contracts will get bigger as time goes on.
Lol no...he got his money because of his play. Yall were spoon fed tatum and never watched the games an never actually watched Jb..now yall lookin all goofy an shocked. Real fans of the Cs been tellin yall tatum isnt " better " than brown...real fans of the Cs been tellin yall we have 2 of the top 10 players....so many of yall are late to the party
He got paid $350,000,000 I think he’s got his flowers.
So efficient now
Another underrated aspect of the C’s is Pritchard. To have someone like him third on the depth chart is just silly. Coming into his own this year
really excited about this bucks celtics game tomorrow night.
The difference between the Celtics and most other teams is that their best offensive players, are also strong on defense!
I remember when Brown was in his second season, I kept yelling at my TV. Jaylen drive the ball, no one can stop you, drive the ball.
So glad to have Jaylen Brown on the Celtics. Next massive contract is Tatum. Need to keep that man in green and white for his whole career.
As a Cs fan who watches every game, the Cs don’t get enough credit for how much players develop on their team, including JT and JB! There are several recent examples of players who have played their best basketball on the Celtics, improved significantly, or are playing their best (Kornet, Hauser, Pritchard, IT, KP, DWhite, Smart). Media seems to push this narrative that the Celtics have an all star team but the fact is the Celtics have 2 stars and a strong supporting cast that is in their ideal roles, and plays their roles well. Before Boston, nobody was talking about KP affecting winning like they are now, or Derrick White…76ers sent Al Horford packing, OKC didn’t play him…now that they’re in Boston media acts like the Celtics have an Avengers type of roster.
I wanna thank all the hater who tried to clown Jaylen on his left hand. He clearly made an effort to develop his lefty more.
I get JT is amazing, but I agree with this take like I’ve been saying this whole year, JB wants the spotlight, while JT is given the keys but he is not hungry about it, sometimes it’s frustrating as a celtics fans.
Nba in a nutshell. Flowers for everyone. This isnt a sport, it’s a show.
Jaylen has us saying this every year put some respect on his name.
Love JB getting his credit
It’s almost as if he got paid the largest contract in history for a reason, he has always been a good player, he’s now a great player and continues to evolve each year.
JB is incredible, people need to pay attention
Just appreciate the jay's playing
The reason the offensive rating is still so high for Boston after the new mandate is because they don’t foul hunt and rely on the whistle. It’s just not what they do. They get buckets, as a team.
At 7:57 , JJ says it all
Jalen knows his role and obligations to the celtics and that's to play with force on both sides of the ball and he's thriving in it. And when team try to take away his drive he reminds them he can shoot the three ball.
Browns been punking players goin to hole, JT does too but Brown does it on another level, love how they can go back & forth
JB gets flowers when he makes free throws with the game on the line.
AND DID. Did you watch the bucks game?
@@NaturalBeautyy6 yes! Knocked em down.
Jaylen put everything together like 3 years ago it was Tatum shot selection that fucks everything up not Jaylen was limited to 20 shots under Brad Stevens once he left they made it to the finals and now Tatum has adjusted but he still has some work to do
You know KP is in a great situation when nobody is even mentioning how many games he’s missed.
He isn't underrated he is just hated by everyone
I really do believe that the 300+ million dollars and the negative feedback about him getting that is contributing to why he’s doing what he’s doing now. When he got that contract I don’t believe everybody thought he deserved that huge contract including myself but the money these days is huge to begin with, he’s proving his worth now! And he’s playing a whole lot better with less turnovers. And that’s called maturity and age as well.😊
He hit his prime
Tatum is 26, Brown is 27, Dwhite and KP 28 or 29 I think, this is going to keep happening for a long time, I'm so excited for all of it
It’s already been happening for a long time. Tatum and JB have both been to multiple conference finals and 1 finals appearance in their young careers.
Because they haven’t won a championship yet people seem to forget how dominant Tatum and JB have been together.
how can you be dominant if you never won a title. Heat have gone to 2 finals in 4 years, 3 conference finals in 4 years. @@ramonnewell9312
That cap is gonna get ugly
No doubt j.b. in the team too be hanging high💚👌💯
He can get his flowers when he performs in the playoffs.
Jaylen typically drives them to the destination. Tatum just happens to have the keys to the kingdom. Remember the last time they exited in the first round? Their driver was out for the season.
JT is gonna be like Paul Pierce in the sense that he will most likely never win a regular season MVP, but will win finals MVP
JB has steadily improved year over year and still gets disrespected im happy Tim gave him his flowers now
People criticize him for having no left like that matters.. he’ll STILL drop 30 on your favorite team lol
Blown away by his dunk contest performance
Jaylen Brown is my favorite player, i can’t wait until he wakes up the rest of the nba world
Honestly Jaylen would have more 30 pt games if he played for another team. I think he’s more underrated than Mitchell.
I always thought Brown was better than Tatum
your thinking is wrong.
Same here, I remember when everyone wanted to trade JB for AD and the Klaw
Jaylen Brown's contract is the only thing I'm "overblown" by.
If Jaylen Brown would hit his free throws consistently, the Celtics would be unstoppable
Maybe they can get a tough schedule next year to actually show people. These boys play Detroit Washington Utah then a great team 😂
JT is the silk. JB is the dawg.
If JT and JB go off consistently in the playoffs, NOBODY can beat them. Chip is theirs to win
brown is on tough role because boston has so much guys can score n onlu one bsll n in his prime
so he has make most sacrfice, he prob would on all nba teams, all star starter maybe, much more kn different team
JB! ☘️
JB 1a is the key to this team being a dynasty like no other. Brad is my hero and Joe is perfect or the closest I've seen.
No it’s not.😂🤣. He just needs to be able to play well with Tatum off court minute’s consistently.
@Chrism7178 he needs the keys. JB is better scorer and mindset. JT is better passer and handles. It's becoming pretty obvious but yea dude mvp JT let's go buy some shoes
JT better at basketball period better scorer that averages less everything?🤣😂..drugs@@juliusrickles
@@Chrism7178 soft
JB scores 4 less points on 1 less shot per game. He takes more shots per possession than Tatum when on the court together....Do yall even bother doing research?...😒🤣@@juliusrickles JB takes 18 shots in 33 mins per gm and Tatum takes 19 a gm in 36mpg. Tatum is more effective and efficient with defenses trying stop him 1st at all times.
He is clearly better then Tatum. I don't know why is he not in the MVP conversation
Bruh, JT has better stats this year across the board pretty much, and he is only taking ONE more shot. That's it.
4 more ppg, more rebounds, more assists, better 3%, better FT%.
JB has a barely better 2p%. That's it. JB is not better. Right now he is definitely playing a better stretch of basketball than Tatum, but overall this year Tatum is still ahead of him.
He's proving yet another contract was money well spent
In this video, what sticks with me most is JJ needs some sleep. He looks like he’s struggling to stay awake. He’s one of the hardest working guys in basketball media right now.
