Jazz Pushing For Jaylen Brown

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Not sure about Brown He seems like a win now piece He's 28
Is he the Alpha piece?
Will he make the Jazz a for sure contender?
Depends on how much it will cost Jazz

 

[KqWIN]

If true, fade the franchise

 

[stitches]

This would be such a stupid thing to do...

 

[Bawse Dawg]

I'd prefer this after the pick next year, or get those protections removed somehow.

But after what we've been through lately watching a Lauri/Brown/Kessler led team surrounded by up and coming young guys certainly doesn't seem so bad to me.

 

[Jingled]

Call me crazy but I would absolutely love to add a 28 year old finals MVP to our roster.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

If I’m the Celtics and I believe the lottery is rigged I’m selling Brown. And doing whatever it takes to miss the playoffs. The nba would not be able to resist giving Boston the #1 pick even if they are in the 14th spot for the lottery. Lol

please don't let this happen:

Career BPM is 0.3, career high just 2.5. Career TS% just 57% and last year it was 55%. Never eclipsed a PER of 20. Has had a negative on/off plus/minus per 100 possessions each of the past 3 seasons, and has been in the negative in 6 of his 9 seasons.

not to mention he's owed $240MM over the next 4 years to give you that kind of production and value. it's no wonder the celtics want out from under that.

jaylen brown is the classic name that sounds good, but when you dig a little deeper, it isn't pretty.

 

[The Midnight]

Ainge Jr already messing things up.

We’re nowhere near ready to make a push.

 

[Bodhi]

It would be the most tread water move ever.

 

[Flc]

Trade 5 for Jaylen, trade 21 + Collins for PG and 3, take Ace.

Would never all line up, but that would be nuts.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

It would be the most tread water move ever.

When you’re drowning at the bottom of the pool, treading water can seem pretty good.

 

[SojoDave]

Is a rumor that is such a bad idea good enough reason to fire the president of basketball operations? Asking for a friend.

 

[Bodhi]

Youre at the bottom of the pool as a strategy though.

I want to get to shore (win a chip) not just tread water (make the play in for 3 years).

I don't know what to think of this. I guess I'll binge some Jaylen Brown highlights to see how I feel.

if the jazz do pull the trigger on a brown deal, definitely binge his highlights - he never misses shots, never turns it over, can go left and is a great ballhandler in his highlights.

It would probably take more first-round picks than we received for Mitchell or Gobert. I like Jaylen Brown, but I think we should stick with the path we’re on—we want to be bad next season to maximize our 2026 pick and not give it to OKC.

For the right price. Especially if you can keep the 5th pick.

 

[bigmike]

Low-key love what Boston is doing. Get as much value out of the aging nucleus you can and re-tool around JT in 2026-2027.

Key difference is we have the Suns 3031 pick, an elite pick not tied to the performance of the team you are sending an all-star too.
