The only time I have experienced "FOMO" in my life is when I got kicked out of a Vietnamese sandwich restaurant at 11:30PM so the illegal vietnamese uncle gambling games could start in the back
Jayson Tatum reportedly has mixed feelings about the Jaylen Brown trade, as everyone else did:
"I talked to Tatum… he felt a certain type of way about it too." 😬

Hindsight is 20/20 but last season was a missed opportunity. Once Jayson Tatum went down with the Achilles injury, the title run was dead. Had we just tanked we probably wouldn't be in this mess. We’d have walked out of last week's draft with a lottery pick and a genuine shot at landing AJ Dybantsa. Instead we lived out the worst possible nightmare. We became a laughingstock after blowing a 3-1 lead in the first round to the rival Sixers, and now we’ve traded a cornerstone star for a 36 year old, 1 first round pick, and a swap to the rival Sixers. It feels pretty dark right now ngl 💔
The Celtics Tax is about to be on full display. It’s wild how the narrative around Jaylen Brown is going to shift now that he’s not wearing green. Make no mistake, he’s earned all the praise he’s about to get he just should’ve been getting it all along. The media and the league have always treated Boston differently, and the sudden change in energy is going to prove it.
Can we all now agree that the Celtics blew it by not trading Brown last year and tanking the season to get Tatum a young running mate? Last season was a total waste
