A lot of Boston Celtics fans weren’t thrilled when the team selected Jaylen Brown with the No. 3 pick in the NBA Draft, but if he channels all that criticism like he does some simple trash talk then he’s going to be great.
Don’t tell Jaylen Brown that Ben Simmons is better unless you want to get dunked on
Brown participated in a kids clinic held by the Celtics on Wednesday. It started out as just fun and games with Brown running kids through drills and giving advice about goals and getting your education, according to Masslive.com. Then one kid decided to trash talk Brown. That didn’t go well for him.
He could have just crossed him over once and let him off easy by hitting a short jumper. Oh no. He let the kid recover and crossed him over again then finished with a dunk.
“He challenged me and I just blacked out,” Brown said, via Masslive.com. “He said, ‘You ain’t good.’ He said Ben Simmons is better. So I said alright, OK.”
If a kid saying Ben Simmons is better makes Brown go into blackout-dunk-on-your-soul mode, I can’t wait to see what he does once he gets to the NBA and experiences that level of trash talk. He may try to literally dunk Draymond Green through the hoop.
