Who's better right now: Jaylen Brown or Jrue Holiday

Jrue if the goal is winning. Brown if you need scoring.

I voted Holiday, but are you implying Brown doesn’t contribute to winning?

I’d say Brown slightly, but it’s close.

No.

I'm stating he contributes less to winning than Jrue, but that I could see team constructions where you might want Brown's scoring in an attempt to be relevant/sell some tickets. Jrue on a bad team is wasted. Brown on a bad team gives you something to sell.

Poll is as close I expected it. TIED!

"Better" depends on fit. If you swapped them, I think both teams would be worse.

Jaylen would probably be ranked higher but as was mentioned above, they play different roles. Healthy Middleton vs Jaylen Brown is a more direct comparison though

Still Jrue

Both are better overall players than Kyrie

I agree

Holiday wins this easily
