Roland17: There is a way I don’t want to speak about JB because to God, he is one of my favorite players and boy have I always rooted for him. I’d hate to come across like critical because of this situation.
JT is the face of this franchise, know this and know peace. He fits how the Celtics works in terms of face of the franchise. JB over the last 2-3 years has earned his stripes. The Celtics have done right by him in every situation, payed him, supported his causes; you name it.
I hope after he leaves he shows the city the love and respect.. but I won’t be shocked if he doesn’t. Money isn't everything and dude is self aware, very much self aware. I hope he drops dime on y'all anytime y'all meet. |

If this is true that your team's FO thought Derrick White had a better season than Jaylen Brown then your team is not just cooked they are fried
Maybe your Celtics accommodated guys in the past but they did not do so for Jaylen Brown. Hell what did they even do for Ime? They fired him over a consensual affair. That don't sound like covering for to me
Back to JB. What was his crime? Can you specifically point to anything JB did that brought the reputation of the Celtics to negative press. Was he breaking any laws? Was he cursing anybody in management? All that man said was it was his best season because of the adversity the team faced and that everyone thought it was a lost season with a team of misfit toys.
The man was on a Twitch stream not in a strip club with guns making it rain on them heauxs.
The uncomfortable truth is your Celtics have not treated JB like the franchise player that he has rightly proven to be. There's no rule that says he and JT cannot be the face of the Celtics. He's been your most durable and available player. You can't dangle him as trade bait over and over and expect him to just be quiet about it. Every player will not respond positively to that.
Make no mistake about it. This is as bad as the Luka/AD trade. They beat the Celtics without Jaylen Brown and now you're gifting them arguably your best player. This means they don't even need to rely on Embiid as much anymore. You have made your biggest opponents title contenders.
I know you will not agree in the open but deep down you know this is an absolutely horrendous trade Meeennn! I am still trying to wrap my head around this meeen. I cant. Will MJ be MJ if he wasnt MJ? MJ was cocky meeen and the bulls never threw him under the bus. I never gave a shit about Celtics. Now I definitely dont give a shit. They traded the one person I liked on that team. |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by greypencils: 6:57pm On Jul 02 |
Roland17: You are choosing to apply your position from only the player’s POV. The Celtics have accommodated JB. The Celtics are renowned for accommodating, protecting and keeping issues about their players under wraps despite how powerful the Celtics media is. From “The Truth’s” stabbing incident to Ime Udoka’s issue. Despite how the NBA see’s the Cs, we take care of our own.
Trade speculations are nothing new to NBA players and we know this. Every player knows they are the trading block so I am not understanding this angu. When JT was out and Infact after he returned and our playoff run ended, there were legitimate conversations about trading JT.
The Sixers with Embiid? Hahahaha.. People that celebrated like they won a ring after finally beating us.. We shall see is all I will say about that. In all, I see you are hyper loyal to your Celtics and you dont care much about your players. I have levied that accusation when Jrue was traded. I am doing so again. Y'all final MVP? For real? Draymond Greene is FARRRR WORSE than JB and the GSW is still holding him. I dont care about franchises, I never did. But my players, I love them till death. |

geoworldedu: Senegal emphatic 5-0 win has put them on track to go all the way to the knockout stages.
Before 6 a.m tomorrow morning, they will be jubilating loudly and Africa will be very happy.
All they need is for Spain to avoid a defeat to Uruguay and for Egypt to avoid a defeat to Iran. With that done, Senegal is in the ROUND OF 32.
YOU heard it from here first. Yes I did. Nice one! |

Lanre1st: even with those that have played, their 3 goals advantage take them above 4 teams (Iran, S/korea, Scotland & Uruguay) already. And it's only 4teams of 3rd position that we be eliminated. Even if there will be any surprises from remaining games, it will affect those 4teams not Senegal Your analysis came after the Uruguay and Iran games. Nice one though. |

Sirseedorf: Can Senegal qualify for the next round even without having four points? It will take a miracle. These number of goals scored against Iraq would help erase the deficit in their goal difference though. |

aliondo: Congrats to the Knicks...They deserve some respect after this...they've been disrespected enough..
Meanwhile, is it becoming a championship for the guards? First, S.G.A and now, Brunson..  It is more than that. It is demystfying legends of the game who came, saw and tried to conquer, a whole lot who couldnt carry a team to win a ring, the likes of Carmelo Anthony who was on the Knicks and Nuggets, couldnt win anything with either. The likes of Durant who couldn't win anything with OKC. Shai and Brunson came to rewrite stories. They suddenly have stolen ALL bragging rights from those two. I am being careful not to mention the OGs, the likes of Pat Ewing, Oakley and co because it seems those ones respect themselves. But these YNs on podcasts and on X, stage is set for premium drags. |
