However, the game itself became secondary as tensions flared in the closing moments, with the Celtics accumulating three technical fouls in the final minutes.</p><p>“You can’t threaten a guy with a tech…I think it’s bull****,” said the Celtics forward.</p><h2><b>Jaylen Brown putting the officiating crew on blast</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Celtics-Jaylen-Brown-defending-a-Bulls-guard.jpg"><figcaption>David Butler II-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Brown provided a detailed explanation during his post-game press conference.</p><p>“Here’s the thing. You get fined. I got fined a couple of weeks ago for inadvertent gestures… But what part of the game is a ref calling an inadvertent technical foul? Isaid to him, ‘You called a tech for no reason.’ He said, ‘If you say it to me again, I’m gonna call another tech.’ ‘You called the tech for no reason.’ Then he called the tech. Like, man, get out of here. You can’t threaten guys with a technical foul. That’s not part of the game, either.” said the irate Jaylen Brown.</p><p>“You want to fine people for gestures and all this stuff, fine that. This is some b*******. We were down three at the time at the jump ball and that led to us being down eight and that affects the game. That could have been avoided. Joe didn’t say anything to deserve a tech,” he continued.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jaylen Brown went off on the refs and the double standard of his fine against the Pistons and the officials’ actions tonight:</p><p>“You can’t threaten a guy with a tech…I think it’s bull****.” <a href="https://t.co/Fh10UTFgFD">pic.twitter.com/Fh10UTFgFD</a></p><p>— Daniel Donabedian (@danield1214) <a href="https://twitter.com/danield1214/status/1869947286706368893?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 20, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Brown’s <a href="https://www.twitter.com/danield1214/status/1869947286706368893" rel="noopener">frustration stemmed from</a> his belief that he should have been the one involved in the jump ball with Ayo Dosunmu. However, referee Justin Van Duyne clarified that it was actually Payton Pritchard who would take part in the jump ball.</p><h2><b>A series of unfortunate events for the Celtics</b></h2><p>This prompted Brown to voice his dissatisfaction. The play occurred right in front of the Celtics’ bench, which explains why <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/celtics-news-joe-mazzulla-blame-nba-ratings-dip-but-he-asks-key-question">Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla</a> was close by and received a technical foul for stepping onto the court, as he explained.</p><p>The game took a turn after the controversial technical fouls. Zach LaVine converted both free throws, and following the Bulls’ win on the jump ball, LaVine drilled a three-pointer. What was once a three-point deficit quickly expanded to eight. The Celtics lost their rhythm and never posed a serious challenge to the Bulls for the rest of the quarter.</p><p>To make matters worse, Jayson Tatum also received a technical foul with 3:10 remaining, marking the Celtics’ third in just a few minutes. The Celtics struggled defensively in the fourth quarter, allowing 35 points and letting missed shots affect their play, leading to a lot of frustration.</p><p>After the game, Mazzulla rushed back onto the court to confront the officials. He had to be restrained by assistants Sam Cassell and Tony Dobbins as he attempted to shout at the referees. The Celtics will aim to rebound as they face the Bulls again at 8 p.m. Saturday, but this time, the game will take place in Chicago.</p><p>“So when I tell you, ‘You just called a tech for no reason,’ and you say, ‘If you say it again, I call another tech.’ Then I say it again, and you call a tech. You just threatened your whistle as a threat. Like, that’s not a part of the game either. And I think it’s b*******.” Brown concluded.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Well, former NBA player Jeff Teague is willing to say he is on the same level as NBA Finals MVP Jaylen Brown.</p><p>Teague, in praising Williams, compared the Santa Clara product to Brown <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuonybEG_pM&amp;t=419s" rel="noopener">before taking it a</a> step further.</p><p>“I think Jalen Williams is a premiere player in the league,” Teague said on his ‘Club 520’ podcast. “I compare him to a JB kind of player, Jaylen Brown, I think they’re very similar. Both can attack the basket really well, capable 3-point shooters, good defenders. I compare them two. I think he’s a young Jaylen Brown.”</p><p>When Teague’s co-host Bishop Henn tried to clarify that Teague was not saying Williams is currently as good as Brown, Teague corrected him.</p><p>“S–t, he is. I’m saying he is,” Teague said. “Why not? Go check the stats … You put Jalen Williams on the Celtics right now, it’s going to be the same s–t.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>That’s about as high of praise as one could give to Williams considering Brown was instrumental in helping Boston win the NBA Championship just six months ago.</p><h2><b>Jalen Williams vs. Jaylen Brown stats comparison</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Thunder-forward-Jalen-Williams-Thunder-center-Isaiah-Hartenstein.jpg"><figcaption>Alonzo Adams-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Is there validity to Teague’s comparison? The stats would seem to say so.</p><p>About a quarter way through this season, Williams and Brown average the same number of points per 36 minutes (24.6) on a nearly identical number of field goal attempts. The players’ shot diets are slightly different; Brown, in the Celtics’ five-out offense, shoots more threes than Williams, who is more efficient (59.4% TS vs. 55.7%) but does not shoot as many perimeter shots or get to the free-throw line as often as Brown. Williams is also a slightly better rebounder and passer, and his steals per 36 ranks in the top 10 in the league.</p><p>Both Brown and Williams are also the second options for their respective teams; Brown plays alongside Jayson Tatum, who has the seventh-highest usage rate this season, while Williams plays with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who ranks third in usage this season.</p><p>The key difference between their teams, though, is the Celtics’ offensive depth. This year, six Boston players are averaging at least 12.6 points, including Kristaps Porzingis, who is averaging 20.3 points in six games after missing the start of the season. The Thunder, on the other hand, are much more reliant on the offensive production and creation of Gilgeous-Alexander and Williams; only those two and Chet Holmgren, who is currently out with a hip injury, are averaging more than 12 points per game.</p><p>Either way, the results have been ideal for both teams, as Boston is 20-5 and second in the Eastern Conference, while Oklahoma City is 19-5 and atop the West.</p><p>Williams and the Thunder will meet the Celtics for the first time this season on Jan. 5 in Oklahoma City.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

I’m gonna keep getting better until I die.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jaylen Brown on improving his free throws and every other aspect of his game:</p><p>“I’m gonna keep getting better, until I die” <a href="https://t.co/LibUQD9ccx">pic.twitter.com/LibUQD9ccx</a></p><p>— Daniel Donabedian (@danield1214) <a href="https://twitter.com/danield1214/status/1866876570419536047?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 11, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Brown’s recent numbers prove his point. Despite all his success last season, free throws were a weakness for the Georgia native. He converted on 70.3% of his attempts at the free throw line, his worst rate since the 2018-19 regular season. To start the 2024-25 campaign, Brown is shooting 76.2% from the charity stripe, which is just shy of his career-high of 76.5%.</p><p>That personal best is from a larger sample size too, as Brown has been fouled by opposing defenses more than ever. The 2024 NBA champion is averaging a career-high 6.6 free throw attempts through 19 games and believes his physicality is responsible for the increase.</p><p>“I’m stronger. I’m more physical. I’m faster. I’ve been using my body. I’ve been screening better … So that’s led to me shooting a lot more free throws,” Brown explained. “We have a lot of 3-point shooters on our team, so I try to be the guy that’s getting into the paint, getting a paint touch before we get those threes.”</p><h2><b>How else has Celtics star Jaylen Brown improved his game?</b></h2><p>Free throws aside, Brown has tried to improve in every statistical category. The ninth-year Celtic is playing a career-high 36.1 minutes per outing while putting up 25 points, six rebounds, and 4.6 assists on average. All of those aforementioned outputs are up from last season when Brown averaged 33.5 minutes, 23 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jaylen Brown on his playmaking and how he’s “attacked his weaknesses” and grown as a passer: <a href="https://t.co/Hep3SfKoRz">pic.twitter.com/Hep3SfKoRz</a></p><p>— Daniel Donabedian (@danield1214) <a href="https://twitter.com/danield1214/status/1864515346016715036?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 5, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>The only real area Brown has yet to upgrade is efficiency. The three-time All-Star is shooting a career-low 44.5% from the floor, however, he’s confident his shooting slump will fade. And, more importantly, he thinks <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/celtics-news-jaylen-brown-eye-opening-take-payton-pritchard-take-over">his value to the star-studded Celtics</a> is more centered around defense and leadership than scoring.</p><p>“With a team like this, that we have … we’re gonna find ways to put the ball in the basket,” Brown emphasized. “My job is to lead my team so we get the best out of ourselves every night. A lot of times, for me, that’s on defense. I feel like I can score the ball, but I don’t think that’s exactly what this team needs.”</p><p>Boston currently has six players averaging 12 points or more on the season. The 19-5 Celtics also have the third-most points per game in the league and the second-highest offensive rating. Scoring isn’t a problem for the C’s so it’s integral that stars like Brown do more than just that.</p><p>“When your best players are the best defenders it sets a tone for your team and your locker room defensively,” Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla said of Brown after a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/celtics-news-joe-mazzulla-reveals-area-jaylen-brown-dominated-timberwolves">late November win over the Minnesota Timberwolves</a>. “He takes pride in individual matchups.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jaylen Brown’s defense on Dame. 🔒</p><p> <a href="https://t.co/a3PHpVVCJH">pic.twitter.com/a3PHpVVCJH</a></p><p>— Hoop Central (@TheHoopCentral) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheHoopCentral/status/1865208494087193015?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 7, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Whether he’s guarding Timberwolves rising superstar Anthony Edwards or locking up Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard, Brown looks forward to defending the best opposing player.

The Georgia native is averaging 25.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, and a career-high 4.6 assists per outing through 17 games. Although Brown has not been as efficient with his shot-making, his early numbers are enough to uplift <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mavericks-news-kyrie-irving-celtics-superteam-comment-viral">an already talented Celtics team</a>.</p><p>Last season, the Green Team went 17-5 through 22 contests before eventually dominating in the 2024 NBA Playoffs and winning it all. Boston was 64-18 in the regular season and posted a stellar 16-3 postseason record.</p><p>This season, the Celtics are off to an even stronger start, which is particularly impressive because they’ve only had <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/celtics-news-kristaps-porzingis-immediate-reaction-first-game-back-injury">starting center Kristaps Porzingis back in the lineup</a> for four games. The 18-4 C’s find themselves in second place in the Eastern Conference despite rolling out their true starting five—featuring Brown, Porzingis, Jayson Tatum, Derrick White, and Jrue Holiday—just two times in 22 games.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Kristaps Porzingis on Jaylen Brown’s improvements and his overall play:</p><p>“He’s an animal, not gonna lie.” <a href="https://t.co/lT6zMgrp1V">pic.twitter.com/lT6zMgrp1V</a></p><p>— Daniel Donabedian (@danield1214) <a href="https://twitter.com/danield1214/status/1864518656123625637?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 5, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Up next for Brown and company is a tough back-to-back set with the Milwaukee Bucks and the Memphis Grizzlies. Both of their upcoming opponents are top-five in their respective conferences and while the Celtics have already defeated the Bucks twice this season, Friday night should mark the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-giannis-antetokounmpo-khris-middleton-expected-to-play-vs-celtics">return of Milwaukee’s three-time All-Star Khris Middleton</a>.</p><p>Saturday evening might feature a notable return as well. Former Celtics point guard Marcus Smart could play against his old squad for the first time since being traded in 2023. There was a homecoming opportunity in early 2024 when the Grizzlies visited Beantown, yet the nine-year Celtic was injured and sidelined for the 40-point loss. Boston has six straight wins over Memphis and Smart’s new crew is hoping to snap that streak.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jayson Tatum has never lost to Memphis in his NBA career.
