While the world is busy debating who the first option is in Boston, Joe Mazzulla is busy praising the high-level basketball IQ that has the Celtics sitting atop the East.
With Jayson Tatum sidelined, Jaylen Brown has been orchestrating.
Mazzulla took a moment to highlight the silent weapon in JB’s arsenal that often goes unnoticed by the casual fan… His elite decision-making.
“One of the things he does great is pick his spots on when to truly impact the game, and then when to either be a facilitator or a playmaker or empower the people around him.”
It’s not just about the 30-point nights anymore. It’s about the gravity Jaylen draws and his willingness to make the right play to keep the offense humming.
Under Mazzulla’s system, JB has transformed into a complete leader who knows exactly when to take over and when to let his teammates shine.
The chemistry in Boston is scary, and it starts with the trust between the coach and his star.
