Depends what you want going forward. I’ll take Tatum even though I love watching Brown play and he’s made amazing strides this year.


Different kinds of athleticism.

Yet, what was that, his first game winner the other night? Tatum has been thrusting the dagger at the end of games all year, and TRo has been clutch since he came into the league.
Brown won a game last year vs pistons in Detroit. And this year in Washington with a step back 3 from the corner.
Tatum has more touch in the fourth and he is clutch. Brown is clutch too

Brown is doing much better on that this year for sure, though they haven't put him in that situation as much. But, for example, just consider his performance against TRo in the playoffs last season:

3pt%: JB 21.7%, TRo 36.8%
+/-: JB -1.4, TRo +3.2
FT%: JB 66.7%, TRo 80%

TRo with the better block, assist, rebound, block, steal, TO, offrtg and defrtg rates. Both in 17 games, TRo at 16.3 min/gm to JB's 12.6.

I meant more like a drive to improve than clutch performance.

If it's KL, some are untouchable, some are likely, and Brown would be Likely.

Anyone else, you don't trade Brown or Tatum.


I think it starts and stops with AD - unless the Greek Freak becomes available.

Brown could be a version of KL. You don't trade a 21 year Brown and other picks/assets for KL.

This rebuild has got to go down as one of the best in league history. And it's not even done. The Sac pick remains.


Yes you do lol.

It's as clear as day that Boston has 3 young studs in Tatum, Brown and Rozier. Kyrie is already at Stephs level. Hayward isn't Durant, but he's damn good. Horford is the glue and can match up against Green. I'm telling you right now....Come next season, Golden State has no answer for Tatum/Brown/Rozier. Not to mention Morris and maybe Smart. They have Klay, which is great...but Boston will have more... Golden State better get healthy and enjoy this ring in June because 18-19 is the year of the Celtics. It's happening folks

I agree with Tommy, Jaylen is untouchable.

I don't know about untouchable but I do get a Darryl Dawkins vibe from Jaylen when he goes to the rim. He's coming into his own as a finisher and I'll be up front about saying I hated the pick when they made it but like it now. Close between him and Murray but both probably ended up in the right place.

I remember when Big Al was untouchable. Until he wasn't.

Yeah...the guy is untouchable. He's going to be a star and borderline superstar. The improvement he has made and how smart he is. The ONLY trade he should be considered for is Anthony Davis.

So, Kawhi off the bench? Seriously, though, I do like that lineup.
