Guys...I think Jaylen could be special. Like if he can get in the lab with Kobe this offseason to diversify his footwork/offensive skillset....the sky is the limit especially with his work ethic
He somehow managed to be +15 in the game with just 1 point scored lol. That says something. I’m not sure sure whether it’s a good thing, or whether it’s always nice to have game in and game out, but it definitely says something
It was his defensive and offensive presence in general, being plus in stats isn't just about scoring although that can single handedly be a contributing factor but it's about efficiency and Effectiveness in a whole, though he wasn't the best scorer his presence was evident that's why Brad kept him on the floor for 30+ minutes
first off u didn't even spell his name correctly. and secondly kawhi is the best defender in the league. jaylen brown may end up closer to kawhi offensively buy he needs to be way more consistent. he has one good game and everyone loses their minds saying oh he's the next Kobe!!! and then don't pay attention to the games where he's 2-15 with 6 points. I see him being more of a Jamal Crawford, Jr Smith type player
Look how this comment aged. Dude has been so crucial to our team. Goes out and becomes first guard to win DPOY in decades, and helps lead a team to the finals. Every team needs a Marcus Smart
That lineup right there: Rozier, Smart, Jaylen, Horford & Baynes. Played excellent defense, & helped changed the momentum of the game. Guys like Semi & Tatum kept things going. Also Browns energy, effort & defense on Durant, I thought was awesome! #CelticPride ☘️
I know Jaylen had a heavy heart that day, but i love his focus and mentality. You can see it again game 2 against Cleveland when LeBron tried to go off and dropped 21 in the first quarter, but Jaylen played like this and dropped 17 and the quarter ended 25-23 Celtics lead. It was as if Jaylen said, "you can go off, but i can too and my supporting cast makes yours look like G Leaguers."
GS was praying they wasnt gunna have to face them in the finals. They knew it wasnt gunna be a cakewalk like cavs was in a sweep. GS would have had to work for it and they knew it. This team is amazing to watch i Hope thery dont break up the core for a quitter like kawhi.
Bring It! How is Kawhi a quitter? He wanted to play for a different team and the spurs most likely didnt want to let him, so he had to take control of his life. Dont disrespect the dude like that
Brad Stevens and the Celtics are smart. This video shows how they take advantage of Livingston, then Young to exploit the Warriors on this run. Great upload bro, keep them coming!
I Was At This Game With 1 Of My Good Friends & His Father. My 1st Ever & Only Celtics Game To Date. 1 Of The Best Days Of My Life. 💚🤍🏀 I'm Probably In The Video, I'm The Dude In The Green Celtics Jacket When Curry Shoots A Few Free Throws, I Was Waving My Hands Standing On The Steps. Go CELTICS!!! ☘️☘️☘️
Eastern finals time. No Hayward. No Kyrie. wonder how them two superstars are feeling. Celtics are doing well okay without them. Also... the run started when Kyries out....
Kenny Tam While I feel like Kyrie is the easier to move on from, but I feel like Hayward signing is the one that may sting (if he played this year, he might have stunted Jayson's development, or made a guy like Morris unhappy with reduced playing time). Either way though, future looks bright. Also, can't undersell the value of having, at least Kyrie in there to instruct these guys. Like Terry feels like a completely different player this year. I think they're learning from him.
And they say kyrie is MVP of this match.. I think Brown could also carry them in the 4th.. Many times in the 4th Kyrie shot some hero ball shot that could have cost them the game..
Warriors post game kept complaining about the fouls but all the fouls in this stretch are legit. They just played defense with their hands and not their feet.
Bullshit, just admit you're GSW hater. Half of these fouls were garbage in this stretch. Refs allowed the celtics to play physical while GSW couldn't touch them.
They weren't complaining about fouls. They were criticizing themselves for committing too many fouls. It's been one of their three key points all season; fouls, rebounds, and turnovers. Whenever they lose you can usually point to one or more of those three things.
God? Is that you? Doesn't seem like you. You usually don't make stupid proclamations like "Half these fouls were garbage in this stretch" I'm going to give you a break this time, but I will not believe in you any more if you don't stop sounding like a dumb ass Warriors fan.
and that is how you do it! Don't force anything, defend well and good things will happen. Also the ball movement is very important. You have to trust your teammates and the less isolation plays the better (unless there is a mismatch). Exploit your opponents weakness and have variability on your offence. Brad Stevens might be the new Popovich. With Gordon Hayward back they might have a shot at being the best team in the NBA in a year or so.
Kyrie can't stay in Boston because of the ball movement and the defensive aggression, he is more of a go to guy isolation play and defense is not his core.
Just watching this now is so sad....Celtics had a serious shot at the title this year with guys healthy, even everybody but Hayward. It'll be fun to watch them in the playoffs this year and then next year they're coming for that ring.
Jaylen brown been that dude for the Celtics since year 2. Notice how he's involved in the offense more compared to being stuffed in the corners now. Brad told the wrong player to take a step back. That shxx stunted his growth real bad
Celtics defense is unattainable right now young team their speed is on 🔥 but warriors team keep telling in the interview so many doubt lmao curry messy handling the ball jaylen brown cook him again warriors had so many turn overs block by the celtics and yet warriors team cant accept the fact they choke,they mess this time just like the nba final 2016 the most choke team goes to warriors banwagon teams😂😂😂😂😂
most of the blocks were fouls and the ref let it play against the warriors , but when the warriors reach for loose ball they are quick to call fouls Cmon men
Stanley Odoemenem 2 blocks were uncalled fouls, dont act like warriors also dont get away with uncalled fouls, watch the full game not just the highlights
Dude this team is so deadly. I know this comment is super late, but I was just thinking about this game tonight. I was honestly losing hope when the Celtics went on a little bit of a losing skid, but I always believe in this team. A lot of people think this is a fluke, but it's not. There is a reason the Celtics are top 5 in both defense and offensive efficiency. Every night it is a different guy. This team has no selfish players, and everyone on the team has gotten minutes, at least some point of the season. I think the difference between the Celtics and other teams is that they want to play hard. It's a mindset. Lots of these teams like streetball, how many people they can dunk on, and how many threes they can shoot in a game. The Celtics don't care about that. They play good, fundamental ball. When the playoffs roll around, the Celtics have guys who can battle. Mark my words: The Celtics are there, man. One or two players away from another banner. Think about this: they are doing all of this without Gordon Hayward... Imagine if Boston was fully healthy... Let it sink-in...
