NBA sources believe Jaylen Brown thinks he’s the smartest person in the room, per @colincowherd “I had two NBA sources … two people in the league, one an executive, one a scout, say that Jaylen Brown has — it’s a disease. He suddenly thinks he’s the smartest guy in every room he’s in … You make a lot of money, suddenly you’re absolutely sure, you don’t wanna listen to your bosses, you don’t wanna listen to consultants, you don’t wanna listen to teammates.” (h/t @TheNBABase & @Fullcourtpass )




This is deeper, but I actually think analytics boom prevented Andrew Wiggins from being a multi time All-Star and bonafide superstar who put up 27/7/5. Look at these shots. His game was the prototype SF (Melo/PG/LBJ/Rudy) at that time, but the game switched very abruptly before he could emerge. Middy, elbow, slasher, 12 footers, long 2's, post fades...all iso half court buckets etc. opening up the rest of their attack. They love to say silly things like "the analytics actually say Shai or Booker are good mid-range shooters" 🤷🏽♂️ But how is a young player coming into a league that openly discourages that shot even prove they are elite in that category? They'd have to be rebels.



I think it’s more so kids growing up in poverty are some what being priced out of having hoop dreams.

Be honest !!!
