@Cerrone_Battle They over-achieved. Every analyst said they would be a play-in team at most and that is why they should tank. JB wasn't the problem, especially in the playoffs. The problem was that 3 players combined for 35% of the fga and shot less than 40% fg and less than 30% 3pt.

@CDRosario_ People love to hate on JB, yet won't place any blame on 3 players that combined for 35% of the fg attempts and shot a combined less than 40% fg and 30% 3pt.

@celticslife Analytics don't tell the whole story in any sport. Would analytics have even given Tom Brady a chance? How about smaller NBA players like Nate Robinson, Spud Webb, or Muggsy Bogues? Analytics praise a guy like Luka Doncic who only plays one side of the ball vs JB's both.

A consistent theme from Jaylen’s comments tonight has been his connection to the city of Boston. It wasn’t just superficial. There are few players in the NBA who have invested so deeply into socioeconomic change in the way he has. He has gone way beyond giving money or even time. He took on the mission of evolving Boston and making it a more equitable place for minorities. So much of what he did in his new home served a bigger purpose. You could see it in how much time he dedicated to talking with kids when he put events together, or how he held meetings quietly behind closed doors with people in positions of power to advocate for policy change. Like, look at what he did with his extension signing at his Bridge program, or his sneaker unveiling at the museum of science that featured a panel on science education with Bill Nye. Him getting traded has a much bigger effect on the city than just losing a beloved player. I’ve been back in Boston this week and seeing so many people I know in the political and creative space be devastated by this trade because they valued him as much as a leader in the community as an athlete. And that’s why the character assassination stuff he called out on his stream was so prescient. I’ve seen him constantly put himself in rooms where it was clear his intent was to grow and to share, not to be the smartest person there. I remember when he spoke on the education system at MIT when he first got to Boston, struggled to get his presentation out cleanly, then kept improving and growing as a thought leader from there. From the beginning, he put himself out there trying to implement change in the community and he built a legacy few athletes have. It’s honestly the first thing I think of when I think about his time in Boston.

@reeceisgoat They aren't just giving anyone hands on exposure to missions.

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@reeceisgoat They give out internships based on merit. It isn't just to random students because they go to UC Berkeley.

@BSolomonsHood @celtic_husker @StoolGreenie It probably would have been easier to get him to retire than to tell a top 6 MVP finalist to got compete up to his standards.

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@celtic_husker @metalhead684 @StoolGreenie Did he say season or post-season? Those are two different things as proven by the evidence of the major awards players get for not accounting for the playoffs.

@saschitt @GiftedByGame What "Ted Talk" have you given at some the most prestigious colleges in the world? I'll wait for your reply.

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@BallUpTopBrad You're banking on Tatum being 100% which He wasn't to end the playoffs. There is no guarantee that injury doesn't become a nagging one.

@machinic_phylum @GiftedByGame Climate change, Ai, and participated in the robotics program

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@saschitt @GiftedByGame Spoke about climate change, Ai, and robotics. But you're absolutely right it was nothing science related🤦🏿‍♂️🤣

It’s so nasty all the NEGATIVE things I’m seeing people say about Jaylen Brown!!! I don’t care how yall talk about bros game, it’s all opinion based anyway! Please stay away from talking about the PERSON and his character!!!! He’s real as they come! Don’t get it twisted people

[Jaylen Brown @FCHWPO]

Philly #throwtheballup let’s get it

[Noa Dalzell 🏀 @NoaDalzell]

I was going to wait a few days before publishing this, but alas.

Jaylen Brown means so much more to the city of Boston than most will realize, and I had a front-row seat to it for the past 3 years:

The Sixers are going to be much better than the Celtics this year💔😭

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

Yeah. I'm not so sure I trust in Brad. This was a trash move!!!

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@jodenpotter @BallUpTopBrad hite, Pritchard, and Vuc combined for 35% of the Celtics shot attempts and made less than 40% fg and 30% 3pt. JB did all he could with key players not being able to hit shots.

[Eric Cone @eroc813]

@MoneyMaal1 @davidaldridgedc Yeah, blame it on JB, not the players that took 35% of the teams shots and shot below 40% fg and 30% 3pt.
