Interesting.

All right, let's go with a Jalen Brown real quick in Boston.

He keeps going on Twitch and complaining about stuff.

Very strange.

The media doesn't like me.

The fans don't like me.

This is my favorite season in Boston right after you lose in the first round.

Now, I know Boston wouldn't want to break up him and Tatum,

Because they just won a championship a few years ago.

They had another great season.

But something seems off here.

Do you think there's any world where Brown is not on the Celtics after this season?

I think it's possible just when you look at his contract and the constraints of the second apron.

And that was basically what forced Boston to do all the things they did this past offseason, which hurt them enough that that's in a roundabout way.

Like, that's how they ended up losing to Philly, right?

And so when you look at the numbers on his contract and his age, he will never have more value.

in a trade situation.

So there's a scenario where, I mean, Boston was willing to sell high on Marcus Smart, for instance.

They've been willing to do that in other situations.

So I would not rule that one out.
