Jaylen brown is his own agent. Thats why they hate him.

[@novelaego2404]

people hate jaylen brown?

[@brandono6906]

@@novelaego2404 I meant people hate on him. Corporate and media people/companies attacked his character because he is his own agent and he is a very conscious brotha and he's very smart. He's also really close with Kyrie and kanye. This is why the corporate world hate on Jalen Brown.

OMG! Why is this even such a big deal! Steven A. (Analyst/REPORTER) reported what he was being told by a source. It’s that simple and he disagreed with the sources take on Brown. The yet 2 other people in gills couch HAD HEARD THE SAME THINGS! How are people mad that the people around brown is telling people this and Steven a is reporting it. If Brown was SOOO Marketable why doesn’t he have multiple marketing deals??? He’s 8 years in. Smart as hell. If companies found him marketable he would be getting endorsements deals but he’s not. How is people hating by stating the obvious. Jaylen is still a hell of a player.

"Sources say..." is a classic tactic used in media to push a controversial take. The source is typically not real or someone without credit.

...or the source could be nobody, it can just be a figment or fabrication of one's imagination to create a narrative. Either come with the source or get sued for slander. This type of bs can costs Jaylen Brown millions in endorsements, etc. He doesn't pull that ish on white athletes.

Another person who didn't watch the whole segment with SAS. SAS didn't agree with the source at all. Please don't react to clips without doing your due diligence or you just end up as a sheep to people with agendas.

SAS makes public comments but expects people to hit him up on the private. Now if he made Public comments about Thomas, that may warrant a private convo.

You must be the slow one because he's absolutely right. Arrogance isn't just thinking you're the best at something or having a higher standard. It involves looking down on people or being too proud etc. Jaylen is a smart guy and they don't like it.

[@boomboompow2329]

I hope yall get that revealing your sources goes against any practice taught in journalism school. Yes, Stephen A. is an entertainer, but he also has reporter responsibilities, so if he chose to reveal his sources just like that, his other sources would abandon him, and he, as a reporter, would be finished. And then some other person will be in the place of Stephen A., who will do the exact thing you are all mad about

[@Skullhead550]

Sources say, you’re wrong just like Stephen A. Stop going on tv and trying to ruin these guys and slander names like he did kyrie and Kwame brown. Tell that grown ass man to quit gossiping. Quit compromising moral principles
