Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd spoke about Jaylen Brown before Game 2.
On Sunday evening, the Dallas Mavericks will play the Boston Celtics in Massachusetts for Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
Kidd: "Well, Jaylen's their best player. Just looking at what he does defensively, he picked up Luka full-court, he got to the free-throw line. He did everything, and that's what your best player does."Many consider Jayson Tatum to be the best player on the Celtics, so the statement from Kidd caused a lot of reaction on social media.The former Cal star averaged 23.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals per contest while shooting 49.9% from the field and 35.
