I have no idea why some people cant celebrate Jaylen Brown without turning it into an anti Tatum thing
-
JB got JTs back and when that happens it’s amazing to watch. Both dudes know they got each others back for real.
-
JB 40 pts 🔥 JT & White combine for 46 pts Jrue double double 🍀
-
It's officially the Jaylen Brown show. Dude's locked in and means business.
-
NBA: "Jaylen, you're not All-NBA." Jaylen: And I took that personally.
-
Tatum had 3 30 point games in a row and then had a a mid game and gets slander but Anthony Edwards had 16 points and gets praise as MJ son. Make it make sense
-
But some respect on Jaylen Brown's name, he been ballin all playoffs. Also hats off to Joe Mazzulla for making great defensive adjustments.
-
Had a death in my family today, I needed this big win. Let’s go Cs🤧☘️ Edit: Thankyou to all of the condolences, it’s good to see there’s still good people in the world and that nba fans can set aside differences and save the sh talk for another human being, appreciate y’all!
-
2 more wins now to reach the NBA Finals!!! Also, let's respect Jaylen Brown!!! Go Celtics!!!
-
Jaylen Brown getting ECF MVP no questions asked
-
JB is definitely the most consistent player for the C’s. Hitting a game tying shot in game 1 to force OT, then scored 40 in game 2. He’s more deserving to win that ECF trophy.
-
Jaylen brown took it personally (All-NBA snub)
-
Media and fans are so cooked. This Celtics squad is playing the best team basketball we've seen in years and all anyone can talk about is individual performances. Guess that's the state of sports now thanks to gambling, people care more about the stats than actually winning the game. I just don't see how any team in the NBA (including the ones already eliminated) would be able to beat them in a 7 game series right now. Elite on so many levels.
