Having three Celtics on the team and none of them is Jaylen is insane.

Madness

[@Alex-kk3ny]

they are trying to do whatever it takes to make TATUM the main guy no matter what. Even if Brown plays better than Tatum it will always be Tatum's team because that's what the marketing wants. The powers in control of basketball hate Jaylen Brown the same way they hate Kyrie Irving. They don't like "truth tellers" and that's why they want to promote Tatum so hard over Brown. Tatum is a nice guy who will never be controversial. Brown might become a big problem if he gets too popular.

Ask Gilbert Arena... Tryouts don't work as long as u have humans at d helm. If u have robots in charge, that'll be fair but even that is subject to the humans who created them. I would suggest a slot system. The coaches first get to pick 2 players, the fans after 3 players, then remaining 10 players are picked from top all NBA awards winners from past 3, 4 or 5 years. So top 5 allNBA and top 5allDefense. These votes should happen separate and independent of each other at the same time. Any remaining slot should be given to any AllNBA players but voted by players already picked...

There are three reasons Jaylen Brown is not on the Olympic team. The first is Jaylen is socially & politically conscious and they are scared he may say something along those lines during the Olympic games. Secondly Jaylen backed Kyrie when Nike ditched him due to the movie controversy. Thirdly Jaylen played in the Big 3 when the NBA didn't want their players playing in the league plus the NBA is trying to blackball the Big 3 league. Jaylen has been snubbed three times this year, No all NBA team selection, no all NBA defensive team selection and no USA Olympic team selection. This is absolutely disrespectful hands down.

What? Jaylen Brown deserved and earned the spot. Who made this decision, LeBron? LeBron making decisions in LA so he probably call this short too. Jaylen Brown has been so disrespected. CRAZY!

[@Milan_N13]

Its about him supporting Palestine same thing with Kyrie.

I've been an avid NBA fan for 50 years but this year I didn't even watch one NBA game because it just not about basketball anymore. When a rabid ilife long fan like me doesn't even watch one playoff game...that says a lot about where the NBA is headed..

[@craigmoore9965]

JB and Kyrie are both too Problack for the team, they are too intelligent, loud and proud. They stand for issues and they don't like that.

[@gamechangerswithfabianlyon7882]

Jaylen is a great defender too. Primarily guarded Luka in the finals. This is slap in the face to jaylen who is probably getting punished for his social justice views.

[@dapo09]

Playing politics with this Team USA in the Olympics could really backfire. I see too much focus on Lebron and old players and JB and Kyrie should be on this team.

[@curtiszyr]

You’re just talking out of your ass . Jaylen brown is not moving the needle , team USA plays team basketball no one is focusing on “lebron and older players” wtf are you even talking about 😂

[@CouchCit]

I think ya'll pondering the wrong conspiracy. Seems to me like Kawhi being put on the USA team was a front from jump, so that both parties can say he was officially on an olympic squad.

[@akw23]

Exactly. They used his name to drum up public interest , kind of like a “last dance” for the older players. and it worked. I never thought he was going to play.

[@easostar]

Jaylen Brown supports the Palestinian people. That's why he is not playing for team USA. It's not Nike

The fact that Jaylen wasn't on the roster prior to this is disrespect I understand D White is a great role player but nah fk Nike

[@pnojazz]

White was taken because he has better defense. The team doesn’t need more offense.

[@cooljp1531]

Why do you think that a player so obviously better than KD or LeBron is never mentioned as the best of the past 10 years? Because he is with Under Armour and Nike is the one in bed with Disney and NBA

[@curtiszyr]

Who is that ?

[@Cahluvca]

No... Curry is a all time best shooter, but to be a defensive liability won't get the label of overall greatest

[@cooljp1531]

@@Cahluvca Don't be ridiculous. Curry is a complete player far better than KD or LeBron at everything especially shooting and overall game IQ and he's never been a liability on defense ( LeBron always has been one so maybe you were confusing the two ). You're either a bot or some guy repeating the same nonsense they keep repeating on ESPN ( which is memo's from Disney and Nike and it just proves my point )

Replace Tatum with Brown. Team USA already has 5 1st options. That's all Tatum is and Tatum shrinks in big games. We just saw this a couple months ago.

Jrue definitely deserves it over any other Celtics player. Dude is a 2x champ first year with Bucks and first year with Celtics. Jrue is also the best defender at the guard position in the nba. Then it should’ve been brown then Tatum.

[@8mathdaddy]

What do they have against Brown? So many players are better than White. How is Holiday on the team?

[@mrres28able]

White is good though and it’s a definite conspiracy to keep Jaylen off the team. It could be a myriad of things to his public stand against police brutality, the way he speaks out about justice and inequality for black and brown people as well as his public views about Nike during the Kyrie stuff. They are probably afraid of handing him a platform of this magnitude on this kind of stage. I think you went too far though when you questioned Jrue Holiday being on the team. He is simply the best on ball defender in the league. He is a total menace on defense. Did you happen to watch him play during the Finals as well as last night? He was unbelievable defensively.

[@8mathdaddy]

@@mrres28able White is good but he is still a role player like Holiday. Both should not be on the team. This is for the best of the best.
