Now that the dust has settled, it’s easier to understand why Boston moved on from Jaylen Brown.
• 36-6 without him over the last three seasons (90-36 all-time)
• Jayson Tatum’s impact metrics jump with Brown off the floor
• Payton Pritchard’s numbers improve significantly without Brown
• Brown finished his Celtics career with a negative on court/off differential
• No NBA player suppresses his teammates’ scoring more while on the floor than Brown, according to the data
Could they have gotten a better return? Absolutely. But when you factor in the looming supermax, the analytics, and the opportunity to add Paul George, it’s not hard to see why they made the move.
Whether it’ll work is another conversation. But the logic behind it is pretty clear.

The narrative swung too far on Dak so I dug
In his 5 playoff losses only Zeke's GB 2016 was anywhere near good.
Dak was Dal best rusher in 3 of the 5 Ls.
And they have given up 157 rushing yards and 30 ppg in the 5 Ls Scored 31 and still lost
He deserves more respect
