It doesn’t help that his shot selection is atrocious.
He has it in his head that because he’s strong he needs to constantly seek contact or shoot heavily contested shots. It’s garbage.
In his head is right, he plays better when angry most times because he stops overthinking every damn thing.
It’s infuriating watching him have games against elite defences where they can do zero to stop him but then he makes mediocre teams look like the number 1 all time d

This is Jaylen Brown's world we all live in !!!
He took that All NBA team snub personally.

Take one little guess what killed all of that..or should I say who?
This is a team that got cooked in drop coverage by Curry and the Warriors in the 2022 finals.
It’s been an issue with two coaches
They played otherworldly defence up until the 2022 finals
Wrong answer, but I expected you to duck that anyways. No surprise.

Oshae is doing what he does and it’s exactly what this team needs. Energy and effort.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

He’s taking those easy jump shots, instead of those ugly fadeaways. He should just stop taking those pull up 3’s, unless totally open

This is probably JB's best game as a Celtic.
Not because he went nuclear but because he is playing like he owns the soul of the Pacers. In the ECF. Huge balls.

JT not playing well, but making the right plays.
That JT drive kick out to JB for the 3 was huge!

Joe should be fired right after the game for playing Kornet over Brissett. Who's with me?

JB, Jrue & Derrick carrying the team
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.

Brissy! Gotta love him, man.
Has a role..knows his role, accepts his role. Plays his role well - even though he hasn't really been in the rotation for awhile..he stays ready and has been very good in this game.
We have been really good with him on the floor.
He needs to stay in the rotation for the rest of the series! This is clearly a good matchup for him.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything
