I am hoping this gives Madsen some recruitment buzz. Although, so far, he's doing pretty darned good.

I watched the entire Finals game 1,2,3 and 5

Jaylen Brown was clutch in games, 1, 2 and 3 on both sides of the court

Didn't see game 4, but it was a total Boston crash & burn

Tatum was dominate in Game 5, and Jaylen was only a key player on offense, but impacted the game with his defense

Jaylen Brown deserved MVP

Dude is a great player AND a leader. Lot's of pressure when you get a big contract like that but he stepped up and proved his value. Go Jaylen Brown! Go Bears!

Also a great bone for the Mad Dog to throw at recruits...who is hungry?

Fantastic performance. Guts me as a Laker fan to see the Celtics regain the lead, but I'm so happy for Jaylen. Hope he has a Hall-worthy career and then does great things in pursuit of his intellectual interests. He's just a really impressive human being.

He was so raw as a Bear but his potential was undeniable. Powe to Brown to Tyson???

Last time Celtics won the NBA Finals, Leon Powe had a breakout game in the series.

Well deserved. Was convinced the league was gonna get it wrong and give it Tatum ala Kobe in ‘10. Got it right tho.
