Maxey is a much better shooter, ball handler, and just quicker than Jaylen Brown, who is a bit taller but that's about it. As it stands, Maxey is a superior player and I think the debate can be settled once and for all.

It's been settled you knob

[–] canyoudigholes@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You seem to be debating it yourself. Is it settled?

[–] LothCatPerson@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Based off of less a quarter of the season? No.

Also, since when was anyone ever making this comparison?

Can we settle that Maxey, who was a lot worse than Brown months ago in the playoffs, is now once and for all better than Brown because of how well he has played in the first 15ish games? No, we can’t.

sixers’ fans logic 🤷🏾‍♂️

[–] triosway@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Damn, this debate hadn't even crossed my mind yet and now it's over. I'm always so late to these things

[–] jacobs0n@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

first time i've heard of this debate and we're already settling it?

[–] Sweatytubesock@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can we settle the Tyrese Maxey vs Jordan Poole debate once and for all? We all know who is better. Smh.

[–] sleepingbusy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Unprovoked debate

[–] people_ovr_profits@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Brown more clutch a better defender and passer. And yes, a tad bit overpaid but until maxey bears him the playoffs… not in the same league

[–] Jordanwolf98@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’ll take Brown

[–] boykalbo777@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

i thought the debate was Brandon Ingram vs Jaylen Brown?

[–] bobmcadoo9088@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

glad u settled the debate. go eat ur turkey now

[–] JoJonesy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What fucking "debate?" Who is even talking about this?? They're completely different players playing completely different positions

[–] Bballopinion@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jaylen Brown has played at an all-star/all-nba level for a lot longer.

[–] LemmeTalkNephew@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ill take brown, kid

[–] 50YearSword@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cuttino Mobley was a better shooter, ball handler and quicker than Tim Duncan

[–] ALovelyAnxiety@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey hasn't been to an nba finals.. lol

Yes in a Celtics-Sixers series the Sixers would have the best 2 players (:

[–] jambr380@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A few days ago, there were people who didn’t have Brown in their starting 5 of players named Jalen/Jaylen/Jaylin, so this opinion is hardly surprising.

Don’t get me wrong, Maxey is a fantastic player, but I’d say this post is more about trashing Brown than it is elevating Maxey

[–] CofTheEast@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The ____ blank of player vs Jaylen Brown debate points are always so random. Why are we acting like this is a popular player comparison

[–] HS941317@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey is better than Jaylen brown because a 14 game start? Lmao

[–] twovles31@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He seemed pretty easy to clamp down last night in Minneapolis.

[–] purplebuffalo55@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Let’s see if maxey can keep it up, JB has been this good for several seasons now

[–] gregajas2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey better shooter. Jaylen taller but not much else. Maxey wins debate, no debate needed anymore.

[–] begley420@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

First I’ve heard of this debate

[–] Charlie_Steve@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

once and for all

Your optimism is adorable

[–] hotnewroommate@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey is faster and better shooter but he’s not a better defender or finisher around the basket.

[–] FroggedDude@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I too am delusional and overreactive to my players recent performances. Max Tobi again!

[–] Dawnshot_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is there a phrase for when people on Reddit completely invent some opinion to argue against or at least amplify some extremely niche opinion and then acts like heaps of people believe it

It's kind of like strawmanning but different
