Am I the only one who thinks Jaylen Brown is better than Jayson Tatum?

[Reggie]

Tatum is better but the gap is not as wide as some will try to make it seem. Brown is a legit 20 ppg scorer who defends too and is getting better every season on both ends. His ceiling isn't quite as high as Tatum's but he's a damn good player who possibly can be the second best player on a title winning team. And i think he would be even better if he actually played small forward the majority of the time as well which may become an issue eventually with him and Tatum on the same team. But the Celts have made it work this long so i wouldn't dare dream about breaking them up anytime soon.

Brown can be an all star. But I think Tatum can be a top 7-10 player in the league.

People here clearly are influenced by media hype.

Good to see I’m an outlier ​

A lot of us work in the day come home and watch the games at night so we miss the shyt you’re referring to

Brown's got crazy potential, work ethic, and elite athleticism. But I don't know if he's got the mentality to be "the man" day in and day out. You saw flashes this season on how great he can be when he wants the ball and gets aggressive. But often times he gets passive even when he gets the ball. Tatum OTOH always wants to attack when get gets the ball.

jaylen is vastly underrated and while no, i don't think he's better than taytum as it stands right now? i think in the long run he has the potential to be the overall better player than JT while being less talented if that makes sense. never mind him constantly sucking himself off about his intelligence lol, he is so slept on it's disgusting. he has the dog on his hard drive while being skilled. he'll only get better i'm telling you, love him

Jaylen is self admittedly too disengaged with basketball at random times. He'd be fine with handling the coding and enginnering that goes into state of the art analytic facilities like the Warriors new arena just as much as he would be handling the rock. Tatum breathe basketball.

 

[old boy]

and please stop with the false narrative about weak ball handling, jaylen is nice with the rock b. i'd give him the edge over taytum with handles right now

 

[kdslittlebro]

I don't think he's better, but has more athleticism, and his game is taking strides that I think could eventually pass up Tatum. His game is gonna have to be much more fluid, because JT offensive game is butter at his age

Breh is developing at a rapid pace.

A few seasons back, I thought he was

maybe going to develop into a decent

starter.Made me eat them words.Instead

of decent starter, I think his projection is

All Star caliber now.I like Tatum, but his

hype's a lil overblown imo.i think he can

be a top 20 player in the league for years

to come, but I've seen people projecting

him top 5.

 

[kdslittlebro]

lbj handles are cheeks too, not natural just like JB

Idk breh, he still has stiff movements, but he was looking pretty damn fluid this year. If he put a focus on that last offseason, I could see it

Media hype happens during and after the games also by reporters and commentators

Also social media is part of the hype

You can’t avoid it. I just see through it. And use my own judgment

 

[DoubleClutch]

He definitely been more clutch than Taytum lately
