JB wasn’t ready , but PG was , PG looked like he had this game circled . I believe PG was happy to get out of Philly . lil Maxey and ole Embid are ball hogs . I watched Maxey look off PG the first of the season . Go back and look at the first game last year , the play drawn up for Pg and Maxey got mad , PG did miss the game winner . but that look Maxey had , I knew PG made a bad decision going to Philly . And JB will want a trade at some point too . Trust me ..

Why do they refer to grown men as kids frequently

What’s makes people think Jayson Tatum has that much pull? Don’t forget the Celtics have new owners and cleared the roster to get under the cap. It was the $70 million a year contract extension that JB was up for next year.

For a guy who thinks he’s so smart, Brown has the maturity level of a high school kid. Tatum is not the GM, he has no control over who stays and goes, and honestly, keeping Brown would have been a mistake. He’s a good player, but he’s not a great player, and he’s just not worth that Max contract.

Well all know Tatum wasn’t happy with Jalen getting MVP which was awarded to the rightful player of the team💯

I swear this media is a joke! they pushed to break them up and then it happens and now its they are not friends! Tatum can’t stop the Celtics but from making team moves. Eventually one was going to have to go because of the situation of the huge contracts. We love JB in Boston and I’m sure there are more people here that wanted JB to stay and to retire as a Celtic , but the business of the game had to go down. Period.

JB had 3 fouls already in how many quarters? Hates the sixers so it’s always business with him..JB is definitely that guy and they know it! 💪🏽

JB played angry and salty and that took him out of his game! JT and PG13 got no beef at all thats why both played well

Tbh I think a mahority of Celtics fans were mad when JB got traded. But the way he acted and responded made it much easier for a lot of us to accept the trade. Also PG is balling out, that helps a great deal too. Lol
