Should the Celtics really consider BREAKING UP Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown? 🤔
“You got two all-time great players there that have shown they can be elite in the postseason, so you don't break that up if you don't have to.” @JaredWeissNBA
Payton Pritchard speaks on Jaylen Brown’s ‘Favorite Season’ comments:
“With what we were supposed to do this year overcoming that & becoming the 2 seed, having a successful regular season I think that's what he meant by that.”

While we're all speculating and anything can still happen, I do think it's somewhat important to remember what Brad himself said during his presser
This part didn't get a lot of traction at the time, but it may have been telling to his thought process
JB became the 1st Celtic to lead the NBA in field goals.
D-White had nearly 2X more blocks than any guard.
Neemi shattered a franchise record.
And that's just the start.
10 standout stats from our 2025-26 season ⤵️ https://t.co/iT0irFe8Yv
All I’m saying is if tatum went 7/25 like Brunson did in a finals game that his team won, twitter would be in a frenzy calling him overrated and having a super team
But i digress
It's incredible that in the split second Castle is looking at Wemby he's looking elsewhere and the exact moment Castle turns his head is when Wemby begins his pass
Probably a tenth of a second difference changed everything
Let's not forget, Brian Windhorst literally went on TV and said Jayson Tatum couldn't win the 2024 regular season MVP because he played poorly in the 2022 NBA Finals
Victor Wembanyama on the pass to Steph Castle’s back in the final seconds of the Knicks’ NBA Finals Game 2 win: “I threw that one away. I messed up. We needed to win that game. This game was ours. But at this point, it’s done. Am I going to regret it? Yes, of course. Am I going to use that to fuel me and to fuel us next game? Absolutely.”
Baylor Scheierman fractured his thumb in March and played through the NBA season with the injury. 💪
The former Creighton Bluejay said he elected not to get surgery on it and let it heal naturally.
Joe Mazzulla still has the Celtics’ locker room, so he still has me
One of the smartest minds in basketball today and is with his players every step of the way
Just simply cannot afford any more playoff blunders moving forward
Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla flew to Omaha to spend time working out with Baylor Scheierman on Creighton’s campus. 💚 Scheierman just finished year two with the Celtics.
For whatever reason there seems to be this rush to either declare a team as the next dynasty or declare that a team is "nowhere close" to contention
When in reality, the 2020s have shown us it's pretty foolish to speak so definitively about either end of the spectrum
