Death, Taxes, Jaylen Brown's advanced stats being terrible.

One dimensional, mediocre efficiency scorers just aren't that valuable. You'd have to argue that he's far more valuable than his box score stats suggest, but there you have an even bigger problem. Long term RAPM data suggests he's maybe the 100th best player in the league. These are two completely independent metrics agreeing here. You have the boxscore metric which is saying he's not that valuable, and you have the pure plus minus metric also saying he's not that valuable.

Did Boston make a huge mistake signing him to a $300M deal?
