On November 28, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued. Celtics defeated Wizards 130-121 at home, ushering in three consecutive victories, which is also the 12th victory in the past 13 games . Currently, the Celtics record is 16 wins and 4 losses, ranking first in the league.
In this game, Tatum missed due to an ankle injury, Jaylen Brown carried the team, He played for 34 minutes in the whole game, 13 of 23 shots, 2 of 7 three-pointers, 8 of 8 free throws, scored 36 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists , and scored a season high.
It is worth mentioning that Brown scored 30 points in the third quarter today . The Celtics also led the Wizards by 25 points at the end of the third quarter. I thought the fourth quarter would become garbage time, but 5 minutes left, the Celtics were chased to 107-119 by the Wizards, but Brown had to play again. After Brown re-played, quickly assisted White to make a key three-pointer, and then scored 6 points in a row , and the game lost its suspense.
In the end, the whole game was over, and Brown's positive and negative presence in this game reached +26, the highest in the team. In other words, when Brown was not present, the Celtics lost 17 points in the opponent's net loss, which is enough to show Brown's importance.
After experiencing last year's finals defeat, Tatum was shameless and brave. He averaged 30.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.2 blocks per game so far this season, and his performance reached the MVP level, , but few people noticed that Brown also played the best season in his career.
So far, Brown has played a total of 19 games, including 20+ in 17 games and 30+ in 7 games. averaged 26.1 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals. His scoring and rebounding data were career highs.
In addition to higher and more stable output, Brown's efficiency has also improved. currently has a shooting percentage of 50.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 34.4%, free throw shooting percentage of 83.2%, and real shooting percentage of 60.4% . In addition to the decline in the three-point shooting percentage, the other three events are all Brown's career highs.
Among them, in the past nine games, Brown averaged 27.4 points, and his shooting percentage reached 57.4%, and his real shooting percentage was 65.7% . During this period, Brown's average score could rank 13th in the league, even surpassing Durant , Booker , Bill and other scoring experts.
In the Double Tenhua, Tatum is naturally the one who has attracted more attention, but after experiencing the finals of last year, more and more people have realized that Brown is actually very outstanding. In this Celtic team, Brown may be the second in command, but within the league, Brown has the strength to become a big boss in many teams.
And in the position of point guard (not talking about double-athing guards like Doncic and Harden ), currently has not many players who can stabilize Brown, probably only Booker, Mitchell , and Alexander . If you combine the record and defense discussion, Brown is not necessarily worse than the above three. The discussion of the first point guard in the league should have his name.
After talking about Brown, let’s talk about the Celtics.
This year's offseason, the Celtics experienced a lot of things . Head coach Uduka was banned for one year because of the "peach-like incident". Garlinari, who was signed by the middle class, was injured without a fight, and Brown was also involved in Durant's trading rumors.
Originally, many people thought that the Celtics might be worse than last year. resulted in the 1/4 schedule. Their record reached 16 wins and 4 losses . Not only that, the Celtics' offensive efficiency also reached 119.9, the first in history, and their net win score of 7.7 points in the league.
The one with a slight shortcoming may be defense. Last year, the Celtics' defensive efficiency was the first in the league, but this season fell to the 17th place in the league. But don't forget, this is mainly because Rowe is not there. After Rowe returns, the Celtics will have the strongest strength in both offense and defense.
lineup, not only Tatum and Brown have reached the peak of their career . This Celtic team also has Smart , White, Brogden , Horford , Gway, Griffin and others. White, Brogden and Gway can start in other teams, and their lineup depth is amazing.
There is no doubt that the Celtics' goal is very simple, which is to return to the finals and win the championship. And as of now, their momentum is really good. I hope Tatum will make a healthy comeback as soon as possible, and I hope Brown can continue his current performance. The peak of the Celtics with double-Tanhua may be now.
