Am I the only one tired of JB getting disrespected in this sub ? One or two bad plays in a row it’s we can’t win with him this team won’t go far with him we’ve been to the finals with him and Tatum with JB playing better than Tatum but now all of a sudden all the past woes is cause of JB
To put it bluntly, Jaylen is capable of great things. He’s a liability when it comes to the important crucial moments that decide whether you crash out of the playoffs. When everything is clicking he does great things.
Being the best team in the league in the regular season is not this team’s issue, but winning the title is. And when it matters the most, he’s absolutely awful and makes the team worse around him. Those same glimpses are shown very often in his game this season, so people don’t expect anything to change come playoff time considering it hasn’t changed the last 4-5 years either.
Jaylen is not playing better than Tatum by any means. Jumping high and with energy might seem attractive to you but he doesn’t do those things in a Game 7 of Eastern Conference, or in the Finals.
If you want people to respect Jaylen, then Jaylen has to respect the team and stop putting himself ahead of everyone else. :)
