Jaylen Brown on Warriors choice to sag off him early in Sunday’s 140-88 blowout: ‘A little disrespectful’

We think the Dubs might like a mulligan on this one.

If you were surprised by the Golden State Warriors’ decision to sag off star Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown early in their 140-88 blowout loss to Boston, to be perfectly honest — so was he. “That’s the first time that’s ever happened to me,”said Brown postgame. “Honestly, I was a bit surprised; it took a little bit of adjusting.”

“I think we just took advantage of whatever that attempt was,” he added. “For the most part, my job is to get to the paint. We’ve got enough 3-point shooters on the team,” Brown explained, almost seeming to validate the Dubs strange decision on his coverage.

“If you want to dare me to shoot, we can do that, too,” said the Celtics forward.

“I thought it was a little disrespectful, but we took advantage of it, and we didn’t look back,” he shared, and they most certainly did not.

As a result of a game plan put together, as Draymond Green related (via CLNS Media) after the loss, “15 minutes before we left the locker room,” the Celtics would have their largest-ever halftime lead, and would finish the tilt with their third-largest margin of victory in the storied franchise’s history.

We think the Dubs might like a mulligan on this one.
