I am all for people expanding their empires, but damn JB's rapping doesn't hit for me. He's basically rapping at his normal personal energy, and that just doesn't work. I say this as zero knock on JB, but a rapper needs to have energy or delivery, and he lacks in both. Then again he does so much good for the community I'd listen to this every day if it meant he'd continue that
Well I didn't mind it, but I'm hardly a judge. Outside of a few artists that my son introduced me to in the last decade or so, Wu Tang is new rap to me.
I think it’s … not terrible. Jaylen is pretty comfortable in front of the camera and (other than the weird sing-rap open), I think his flow is mostly fine. Decent beat, okay diss track, could be worse.
It’s probably not especially if his star continues to shine. Who was it who said, “Rappers want to be ballers and ballers want to be rappers?”
The shade at Jaylen for this feels pretty uniform across the socials and demos. High key hate indeed.
Yeah I obviously loved all of last season, but with the removed weight of them finally winning and JB and JT feeling disrespected I'm even more excited than ever for next season. They were methodical last season and Joe will keep them there this upcoming one, and now they are apparently going to throw in being ruthless as well. Can't wait
Last season the Celtics set an NBA record with 3 wins by 50 or more points. Maybe they can rewrite the history books again starting in October. LFG.
If motivation stays high and they avoid the injury bug, this should be a pretty epic regular season.
It definitely feels like there's a monkey off my back as a fan, so I can't even imagine how the team's stars feel.
This is where I'm at... I'm sure I'll get tense at various points this season (beat up on Kerr, please and thank you), but really, it'll be one big tureen of gravy on top of house money. Things will change when the playoffs roll around, of course, given that I would love to see this group become dynastic, but until then, just stomp through the league and have fun doing it.
I just came here to post this same thought. JB made a mistake losing the beard. He looks strange.
He's working on it.
Woof that cursor delayed animation on the website. Shoe looks very JB though
i like it a lot. he’s a handsome guy. he needed a fresh start after that music video anyways
JB seems to be a lot smarter and actually more well read than Kyrie (who seems like a complete dope so the bar isn’t too high)
mathematicians have their own special flavor of whackjob. jaylen brown is no isaac newton.
Haven’t we heard more than one report that he is extremely intelligent? I think he was taking master level course as a freshman at Cal iirc.
not to derail the thread, i love the guy. but grad school has no shortage of unintelligent people. just basing off my own impression.
What would lead you to beleive that Jaylen isn’t intelligent? He speaks well, dresses well, acted as his own agent earlier in his career while doing the work to understand the job, and was elected as Vice President of the Players Association at age 23.
It wasn’t only Jaylen taking advanced courses it was the comments from his professors that were published when asked about him taking those courses.
