Jaylen Brown's statement after being traded from the Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia 76ers:
First and foremost, thank you to the Most High, even in the midst of adversity. I'm here with gratitude.
I’m still processing how this all went down. I’m excited and disappointed at the same time. I earned my respect from this city. I never asked for shortcuts or special treatment. I simply showed up every day, put my head down, and accepted every challenge.
The relationships I built here, the battles we fought together, the championship we brought to this city, and the connection I shared with the fans, I’ll carry on with me.
Saying goodbye isn’t easy when you’ve invested your heart into something.
I’m big on respect and actions speak louder than words. To the people of Boston, thank you. To the community I built here I love you, and to the shiftaz we are locked in for life⚡️
As one chapter closes, another begins.
I’m excited for what’s ahead and grateful for the opportunity to join Philadelphia. Every city has its own identity, its own passion, and its own expectation. I respect that, and I’m looking forward to earning that respect the only way I know how.. through the work.
Philly - throw the ball up let’s get it!
BREAKING: LeBron James will continue his NBA career for the 2026-27 season and has informed the Los Angeles Lakers that the franchise can move on without him because he will play elsewhere, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul tells ESPN.
The Hornets keeping LaMelo for all these years than trading him when they finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel is exactly why bad teams stay bad
Seeing all of these stars request trades from multiple teams while Embiid has had to endure the worst front office i’ve ever seen for a superstar and wanting to stay put is why everybody should appreciate him more
SpaceX IPO so perfect for right now. A company without profit, sold on a market detached from reality, based on fake promises about things it will never do. Layers and layers of bullshit.
Jared McCain may not be the greatest player in the world, but the Sixers selling him at the deadline instead of actually trying to make their team better was the spiritual end of the season and we all kinda knew it. It's tough to win when management isn't that interested in it.
The nearly universal love and respect Joel Embiid has been receiving on this app these last few days is so jarring to me because I had gotten used to the reaction being nearly universal hatred and vitriol when he was at this peak
A body LITERALLY falling apart
SURGERY THREE WEEKS AGO
KNEES SO SCARRED NIC BATUM COULDNT BELIEVE HE COULD MOVE
BUT IT DOESNT MATTER
34 POINTS. 12 REBOUNDS. 6 ASSISTS. 1 BLOCK.
A 3-1 COMEBACK
JOEL EMBIID THEY COULD NEVER MAKE ME HATE YOU
We have every workout of his career filmed. We use film to observe & make improvements. We’ve shared a few clips over the years on social, but have a decades worth of workout footage in the vault.
It’s his story to tell. When he does, people will be amazed at “the process”
This is not even prime Embiid.
This is just pure bucket-getting talent on display with barely any legs left like two weeks removed from surgery.
Will for the rest of my life tell of the legends of Joel Embiids talents.
