NBA Draft 1st round is over... and Jaylen Brown is still a Celtic. What does that mean for Jaylen Brown's future? Will Jaylen Brown remain in Boston going forward?
Is the JB/Giannis situation reminiscent of A-Rod/Nomar?

00:00but nba draft came and went and jalen brown is still celtic so i don't know what to make of
00:07that
00:07his brother was on the social medias yesterday sharing a very emotional post which went out of
00:16its way to show how the two jays love each other how they love playing with each other how they
00:23are brothers so obviously jalen brown's brother has been given the directive about what to post
00:31and then brad stevens spoke last night and uh offered his support for jalen brown
00:39remaining boston celtic sort of i i would assume we'll get to we'll get to that during they said
00:46it but we might get to that i'm guessing before that shine so yes um all right well i heard
00:51a
00:51caller on the sports radio airwaves yesterday who had a great point and he said this reminded him
00:57of the nomar off season where the red socks in 0304 were pursuing alex rodriguez oh yeah i remember
01:04that and that you had kevin millar the netflix three-part series did a phenomenal job highlighting
01:10this one that comeback i think was the title of that the barnacle kids did they did a great job
01:14and um kevin millar was on with dan patrick on sports center and he said you have to pick one
01:21nomar or a rod and he said a rod and nomar was on his honeymoon and like flipped out it
01:26was like f
01:27off millar right and i i think that this is sort of where you are i don't know obviously nomar
01:33was on
01:34the team up until the trade deadline in 04 and jalen brown i think is a more talented like i
01:39don't think
01:39it's an apples to apples comparison but it is interesting like you're sitting here now you're
01:44all trying to act like what just happened didn't happen and brad stevens will get to it i i felt
01:50like it was brad sounding disingenuous like i think he's a pretty honest guy and i just thought
01:55he sounded off yeah he sounded like um i was i was like he wasn't saying anything we all know
02:02i kind
02:03of looking at it moving forward if you're the celtics you you missed the boat on this one there's
02:08nothing that you could do that is going to get people i i would say like back on if you
02:15trade
02:15jalen brown right and but i don't think you're ultimately going to what are you saying what do
02:19you mean like i don't think you could trade jalen brown now like i don't think not now you think
02:23you can't trade no yesterday you said they had to trade no no i said they had to trade him
02:28for
02:28yannis yeah but then you said going forward that he was going to be upset and and and and bothered
02:34and hurt and so but you want but i also said you only have one option and that is to
02:38keep jay
02:39you mean what when it comes to strategy what you're going to get for him like you can't get rid
02:45of him
02:45no because you're not going to get nothing in return that matches who he is as a player well he
02:51said
02:51last night that he is going to be a big part of what they're doing going forward so right um
02:57sounds to
02:58me like there's nothing out there at least so far no that is appealing to the boston celtics and and
03:05they are gonna stick with the two jays and so uh and see what they can what they can add
03:11around them
03:11right i guess i mean i heard everybody think that they're gonna still be you think jalen brown is
03:15still gonna be on the team yeah because you got no other option i i i think when you start
03:20to look at
03:22it whatever you trade him for you're gonna look foolish as an organization yeah it's gonna be
03:28you're gonna be past that point but you're gonna be getting pennies on the dollar so what was the
03:33wind horse stuff yesterday after the the deal fell through for yannis was that just nonsense i mean
03:39when her's going like oh they're still gonna possibly could happen today but there's definitely
03:43he's still on the market yeah but they said he didn't say like it could happen before the draft like
03:48or could yeah i don't believe he's going anywhere because it's pennies on the dollars so well i mean
03:53to be fair there is reporting not not speculating that there are several teams that are interested
04:01and i've expressed that to the celtics right you know houston the clippers what like there but they
04:07don't have anything that's going to match what yannis would have been so no i mean yannis is a top
04:13five
04:14maybe according to bill simmons top top seven player in the league i don't think anybody
04:19currently is going to has a disgruntled top five top 10 player who is who are they are gonna move
04:26but who knows and jalen's top 10 so why would i trade a top 10 player for somebody who's probably
04:33not even in the top 20 so let me ask this question as it pertains to the reporting from shams
04:37i believe
04:37it was the night of the night of the deal to the heat from the bucks it was that jimmy
04:42haslam who was
04:43like should i have known that he owned the bucks like the dirtbag owner of the browns owns the bucks
04:47in one month he trades miles garrett and yannis what an owner um and so that night to me if
04:55i'm the
04:55celtics and i'm doing their pr i say we had a deal in place jalen said this is not a
05:02destination that
05:03he wants to go to and we wanted to do solid by a guy that's done solid by us so
05:07it didn't work out
05:09instead of saying we were done and we just didn't include you go like to me that's wouldn't that
05:14save face like okay we it's our job brad stevens it's my number one job to pursue any avenue to
05:20improve the team i believe that yannis would improve the team i've expressed that personally
05:24right in conversations with jalen brown jalen expressed to me as the deal was about to be
05:29consummated that this was not a destination he would go to willingly and we said you've done enough
05:34by us we're going to do right by you what why wouldn't you just say that because then i feel
05:38like everybody saves face brad says i i was negotiating in good faith but if the player
05:43doesn't want to go we can't force them to go they look like they're great employers because they're
05:47concerned with their guy and and they want to send them to if they're going to send them somewhere
05:50they want to send them to a place where he wants to go right like i feel like in that
05:54case
05:54everybody wins yeah but are we are we still i know are we still under the impression because i
06:00haven't heard shams or when her say that the reason why the deal fell through is because
06:06jalen didn't want to go to milwaukee so is that like something that's still the reporting is that
06:13haslam didn't want to trade for jalen because jalen didn't want to be there long term but they
06:19where's this report come who i saw that on the show yes yeah i know but that but i'm saying
06:24from
06:24the we haven't heard that from any of the nba experts what do you think is more nba insiders what
06:30do you
06:30think is more believable that the celtics were about to trade for yannis jalen had his bags packed
06:36he was ready to go to the harley davidson museum right and brad said no no no no no you
06:41can't have
06:41shireman or they had the deal agreed to but the owner of the buck said we're only doing this if
06:47he
06:47wants to be here and it'll extend and he said no so the deal is up which of those two
06:50is more plausible
06:51i think the first part this is rob from speaking of potty mouths from new jersey hello rob
06:58rob sorry go ahead what's up first time long time listen to you guys every day
07:06from new jersey thank you hard to be a boston fan in new jersey you know it is it is
07:13hard yeah
07:14but uh what i want to say about jalen brown is uh at this point they have to keep him
07:23they have to
07:24keep him there's no way they can get rid of this guy at this point there's just no way there's
07:31nothing
07:31that you can get for him that is as good as you can get for jalen brown so you're saying
07:39they can't
07:39get anything currently that is equal to j equal or better than jalen brown so um that's okay i i
07:48i mean
07:48i don't know what when somebody like jalen brown becomes available then i don't know what teams are
07:55willing to do when it comes to who they're willing to offer up i have no idea but i listen
08:00they're not
08:00getting a yannis so uh but they also may be dealing with a guy who is unhappy to be here
08:07like he may not
08:08he may have told them i don't let's last year was great loved it loved having my own team right
08:14loved being able to stream whenever i wanted to stream tired of people criticizing what i say on
08:20my stream here in boston tired of the tired of sharing the limelight i i have no idea what he
08:27said to them work with me here work with me here greg and wiggy july 30th is that when the
08:32new deal
08:33can be done the new extension it has to be done by the end of july okay let's say they
08:37don't do it
08:38chisholm doesn't give them the new max deal what do you think the fall looks like around here because i
08:43don't think they want to give it to him they just tried to trade him yeah yeah he's gonna be
08:46upset
08:47you have to look beyond today and the immediacy of people trying to do damage control like
08:50obviously they're gonna say that's kumbaya and we love each other they just spent a month trying
08:55to trade the guy and this goes back to the first part i believe i don't believe the has haslam
09:01report
09:01because here's why we can't do this with every story where like you select it no no but it's not
09:06about selective it's about the definition no no listen to how the timeline works out they have been
09:11trying to trade jalen brown to the milwaukee bucks since the season no they've been trying to trade
09:18for yon but potentially three teams not directly with the but but there has been communication about
09:23uh the bucks since the season but it was only in the final days of these negotiations that it was
09:29one for one no no but listen right they have no no it had been they've been talked about so
09:34the
09:34point that i'm making if brad is somebody who went up there and says i'm as transparent as you
09:40could be he had talked to jalen brown and said jalen here we've been in talks with milwaukee
09:46that's one of the teams that has interesting in you and that is possibly a place that we could trade
09:52you to and if that moment of jalen's like i'm not going there and i'm not extending or signing with
09:59them and that's a month a month and a half ago during the season well why would it be a
10:04month and a
10:04half ago it was they were talking up until the day before the honest trade they were they were
10:10there were multiple reports that there were three teams right three or four almost the entire time
10:14but there was also there was also reports that they were going to potentially do a one for one
10:20so my point is but there really wasn't until the end no but there was in the but there was
10:24trade
10:25talks so of course there were trade talks but in the beginning there wasn't three teams in the
10:29beginning it was just uh jalen for yonis the three teams didn't come till later what do you mean by
10:33the
10:34beginning what timeline like we're talking about uh when they were talking about potentially traded
10:38him during the season during the season one for one yeah they were they explored them a lot they
10:43was injured no there was no i'm talking about the yonis tree right yonis was injured this season
10:49yeah but they were talking about just me or is this tedious no no no it's because i can't like
10:54i'm
10:55getting a popsicle headache trying to get a popsicle headache well let me get my my point is this you
11:00should get a crumb you should get a crumble drink you're right i'm gonna need sugar here in a minute
11:04i'm gonna need sugar here my point is this if they my point is this if they jalen brown they
11:11were
11:11talking to him about going to milwaukee if he wasn't willing to go to milwaukee and he didn't want to
11:17be
11:17there then they should have never put their foot on the gas to potentially move him there they would
11:23have talked about that and they would have pulled out or they would have did everything in their power
11:27to get him or get a third team in and so that's why i believe that they didn't want to
11:33throw in
11:33the young players i don't believe it had anything to do with jalen brown my opinion
