Does how Jaylen Brown has been playing change anyone’s opinion on who you’d rather have long term between him and Tatum?

Smart upgraded to questionable Time to pull out all the stops. You know he's fighting to get in there. |

I'm going to take the safe route and say Jaylen has the higher ceiling and Tatum has the higher floor. Brown is faster, more athletic and his defensive potential is ridiculous. Tatum is a good deal slower and a bit of a tweener. Both are going to be really good though, they're inconsistent because they're way too young but in a couple of years I really think both are going to do some crazy stuff. |

Apparently Smart is going to sit out game 5 and is waiting clearance for game 6.

Tatum is slower but he’s got a great first step on offense to get by people and he’s so long on defense. He’s also got long strides so he gets up the court quickly. Pierce was slower too but that didn’t slow him down. Not saying your analysis is wrong just wanted to add those points. Brown has just been so damn impressive. |

You want both long-term and yes Browns play has made a difference. He's been a beast.

Does how Jaylen Brown has been playing change anyone’s opinion on who you’d rather have long term between him and Tatum? Yes, when Tatum got off to a great start I was in his camp, like most people. When compared to how Brown played last year it wasn't even close. Now given what Brown has done this year and more recently in the playoffs I think it is a dead heat. Brown has played so much better than he did last year obviously but these playoff games have really been eye opening. Just imagine if Tatum has the same type of sophomore jump that Brown has. If that happens how much better is he? I think they have been good for each other also and will continue to grow as players connected at the hip. Barring a trade of course. What will be interesting to see in the future is what everyones stats will actually look like. Nobody on this team will have huge numbers individually as the ball will be shared equally. Horford will most likely score the fewest but what are GH, JT, JB and Kyrie going to average points wise. |

Even with the down time Smart is a very big upgrade over Larkin, defensively he will have an impact for sure!

Smart's first 4 seconds in the game, he steals the ball and the place blew up. Welcome back Smart.

That non call on the shot clock violation was one of the most ridiculous things I've seen in my life. I think we earned it though, plenty of bullsh*t calls going the Bucks way in the past 2 games.
