Just in: Free agent guard Anfernee Simons has agreed to a two-year, $12.3 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, with a player option in second season, sources tell ESPN. Simons chose the 76ers over other suitors believing his fit is perfect with the revamped 76ers roster.

Been thinking JB for PG it Hurts. Truth we think of. In the end if you don't elevate your team and the analytics are not good, start gunning for shots, no stops vs Sixers, Jayson can take that role and improve it, I Love JB We Love JB Blessings JB Sorry you're out 🙏🏽@FCHWPO

Jaylen Brown was not traded. Jaylen Brown was salary-dumped. The Celtics canvassed the league asking for anyone who might be interested. They were rebuffed. Repeatedly.

They could not manage to get a Tre Murphy swap with fillers. They couldn't manage to get a Jrue Holiday + picks package.

In the end, the Sixers offer was underwhelming, but it was the best one they had.

And the Celtics learned what many front offices have known for a while. Top 25-30 players who get paid top 10 money become bottom 100 assets, even in their prime.

The Celtics paid Jaylen Brown for the same reason the Clippers paid Paul George. They wanted to max out the contention window for their star by re-signing their supporting caste.

It's a trap many teams fall into when trying to max contention windows. Klay got the bag post ACL injury because the Warriors wanted to help Steph. Myles got paid so the Bucks could help Giannis.

Hell, right now the Raptors are about to pay Kawhi Leonard 170+ million over 3 years to help open up Scottie Barnes' window.

But the reality is grim. 29ppg isn't enough anymore. Not without the impact, efficiency, defense and making your teammates better.

Brown wasn't a great defender this year. He's an aggressive but less than superstar level scorer... And at nearly 60 million a year, with the analytical impact and player profile of an borderline All Star, the Celtics bet that Paul George + picks was worth getting off of one additional year of Jaylen Brown.

It's not a popular decision. But it's reality. Front offices don't value him. Just like they didn't value Ja, BI and Trae Young.

Learn the lesson. If you max out these types of players, you're going to be holding them well past expiration.

[RIV E RAIZUP 🇵🇷🇺🇸 🙏🏾ARMY SGT VET @JettoRivera]

Bro why do our fans want Jaylen gone i don't understand, he literally did all he could do without JT fully healthy, that shit I blame to think he doesn't get better this year and next, it's all about the Jays not just one! Homegrown bro! 💯🙏🏽☘️

[CelticsUnite @CelticsUnite18]

Jaylen Brown’s brother posting this on Instagram genuinely made my day.

Maybe there’s still hope…

[RIV E RAIZUP 🇵🇷🇺🇸 🙏🏾ARMY SGT VET @JettoRivera]

@FCHWPO I am sure you seen there are a lot of fans who believe in you! I know the way the team was gutted this year, was not your fault, we have 3 point shooters but we need more defenders and damn a pg to set you and JT up in better sets. I believe in the Jays F' em F' em F' em!

[RIV E RAIZUP 🇵🇷🇺🇸 🙏🏾ARMY SGT VET @JettoRivera]

@Savageboston @ShamsCharania Shams tryna start some shit now, Everyone knows what Boston is doing but everyone says they are silent with their steps. I don't care if Jaylen was offered for Giannis who is a top 5 player, yea it didn't go through so why talk about the fallout, lil snake diss GTFOH!! 🤣

[RIV E RAIZUP 🇵🇷🇺🇸 🙏🏾ARMY SGT VET @JettoRivera]

@Thechat101 So everyone says, but Boston never leaked that out 🤣

[RIV E RAIZUP 🇵🇷🇺🇸 🙏🏾ARMY SGT VET @JettoRivera]

So Fox shoots a layup with lead in last seconds, then he fouls up 1, then he doesn't box out on rebound! Damn he really lost that game by himself!!!!🤣
