Play was for Tatum…Brown did not read the defense, instead of waiting on the wing…he brought his defender over to kill spacing causing Smart to turn the ball over…it’s just a depleted Spurs team but these details will matter against better teams

Looks like a d bag, that haircut.
yeah he looks like a 80s teen movie villain.
More like an early 2000's dad who tries to look hip so he gels his hair haha.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything

yeah. it does sometimes seem like he is more like an open gym / pickup game / 1 on 1 game superstar haha.
Curious what the numbers are when Brown initiates the offense.

Ohhh. IDK about that?
White is more Versatile. But, Brogdon is better as a BallHandler/Scorer.
No doubt. But I’ll take White’s defense, ball movement, BBIQ as the better overall player. Close though, depends on what you want in a guard

It’s basically impossible to track that, but Celtics are 14-11 in his 25 highest usage games.

The only Celtics player I’ve ever “hated” was Mark Blount lol. Maybe Ricky Davis, dude was mocking Pierce behind his back.
Unacceptable.

I think I’ve been too hard on Brown. At least when he’s working at the turnover factory, they’re usually dead balls. So I’m sorry.

Jordan Crawford and Mark Blount would like a word…
But I do think Brown has a really low Bball IQ…He can create for himself but he’s not a natural playmaker for others and his reads aren’t often the right ones.

He's saying, Get me out of here, Celtics!
He's looked pretty good so far..
possibly auditioning for a trade to Boston..
He's a clever, mobile scorer inside, which the Celtics could use.
Drawbacks: Injuries and he fouls a bit too much.
But he would fill a niche.
So, not the worst trade option.

#7 has oodles of talent & deserves AS this year, but all too often the bball IQ of an amoeba & too selfish.
Our MVP is missing 1 thing - night in night out Kobe/Truth/MJ-like meanness & mental toughness.
Part of the snowflake era of America.
I have seen it in the attitude of the 20-30 year olds I train in medicine.

SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Paul Pierce was neither mean nor mentally tough until two HoFers including a top 10 all-time player in his prime joined him. Tatum doesn't have that kind of help.

Only if it helps him ask for a trade before his contract is up.

True. I wish that Brogdon was sturdy enough to be a Starter, that you can count on.
I actually don't like him on this version of the Celtics. I don't think he fits.
