The Boston Celtics faced a disappointing exit in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Miami Heat. And Jaylen Brown received the brunt of the humbling loss. After the Celtics’ journey to the finals was cut short, most critics held the two-time NBA All-Star responsible for the loss. Although he managed to score 19 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists, he had 8 turnovers throughout the game that cost the team a berth in the NBA Finals. Therefore, he caught a lot of flak for his struggle to score while driving left. With critics calling his left-hand dribbling a liability, Brown decided to work on his imperfections in the offseason.

The Celtics hosted the New York Knicks for the season opener on Wednesday night. They were off to a fiery start as Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis led the team to a 108-104 win over the Knicks. Following the season-opener loss, Julius Randle is asked to follow Brown’s footsteps and work on his off-hand dribbling.

American Rapper has some advice for Julius Randle

The New York Knicks did not expect to start their season with a loss. However, they might still need to shake off the offseason rust to fully shine on the court. Knicks’ power forward managed only 14 points to go along with 11 rebounds, seven assists, and two steals in 34 minutes. He was dreadful from the field, as he missed 17 of 22 shots. To add insult to injury, he also missed four of five from the free-throw line.

In light of his poor performance, American rapper Cam’ron offered some words of wisdom to the 28-year-old forward.

In the recent episode of It Is What It Is, Cam’ron said, “My man Julius Randle, it’s summer after summer you will not work on your right hand. You know you probably could average 27 if you work on your right hand”. He further added, “He [Julius Randle] got that most improved player of the first year he got to the Knicks, and he has been a left-handed bandit ever since. I don’t really understand why he won’t work on his right hand”.

However, Randle was not the only one who felt rusty in the first game.

Jaylen Brown had a cold season debut

Although the Knicks won the game, Jaylen Brown’s season debut was not up to the mark. Mainly, Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis orchestrated the victory, as Brown took a backseat in the first game. Brown posted 11 points, six rebounds, five assists, one steal, and two turnovers across 38 minutes. Jayson Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis came in red-hot and delivered 34 and 30 points, respectively.

After the game, Tatum told the reporters, “It was just one game, we know how special he is. Everyone is going to have not great shooting nights, he still impacted the game in other ways. He had some key rebounds, loose balls at the end to give us more possessions. I?m not going to shoot the ball some nights, it?s all about impacting the game in other ways. JB is going to be fine, he?ll probably have a great game on Friday”.

The Knicks will face off against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night, and hopefully Brown can make a comeback next game.
