Man, the trade they settled for is bad, but it’s become very clear the league does not view Jaylen Brown like a 2nd team all pro MVP candidate.
Everyone keeps comparing it to Babe Ruth or Mookie Betts but I think the most apt comparison is Jimmy Garoppolo. Making a bad deal for significantly less value just to make a point. I really think they got sick of his attitude and just said “see no one fucking values you” and moved him for a bag of balls. Which is stupid as fuck.
No, bc jimmy garoppolo fucking sucked then and sucks now lol it is 1,000% as bad if not worse than the mookie betts trade.
I also dont think they were "trying to make a point" with brown either, he was disgruntled, they knew he wanted out, they gave him what he wanted lol they just happened to accept a bag of laundry and a flat case of soda in return.
Isn’t that how Avery Johnson had his start in coaching. I swear I remember something about him playing for the Mavs then being an assistant in the same season
