Jaylen Brown says he feels disrespected by trade to 76ers

sportsJul 3, 202623701

On a Thursday Twitch livestream Jaylen Brown said the trade sending him from the Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia 76ers left him feeling disrespected and that he is still processing the move. Brown said he called former Celtics staffer VJ Edgecombe and 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey, expressed excitement about meeting Allen Iverson and affection for Philadelphia's black jerseys, and twice used profanity to emphasize his mood, saying “The Process is back motherfucker.” He also said his Celtics keycard was already deactivated when he tried to enter the team facility. Brown closed a July 2 statement with gratitude and that he felt both excited and disappointed. The comments follow wide coverage of the trade and come as the 76ers reportedly enter the LeBron James pursuit one day after acquiring Brown, which could affect Philadelphia’s roster moves next.

He is absolutely a very smart man, but these days most of the NBA players are not college graduates. A lot of them are one and done.

JB is a pretty smart guy. The problem with that is how smart ppl tend to rub others the wrong way. Conversations with some ppl become trivial, boring & pointless. It's not an easy existence, which can lead to isolation and alienation.

That part is true on the bar. Exhibit A: MAGA.

He's at least triple as smart as ANYONE in the Celtics front office

With a small percentage of exceptions he's right.

To be fair the system is set up so the rich athletes aren't very smart or independent. They have a shit education and a manager that thinks for them. I imagine Jaylen being in the system knows this very well.

oop…and that’s how you clear a league lol

One of the most important columns I’ve ever written: After making the NBA Finals with a young team built around an emerging superstar, this is why the Spurs SHOULD NOT trade Victor Wembanyama for Jimmy Butler. www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs...

Did anyone at the Dallas Morning News ever warn the Mavericks not to trade Dončić for a washed-up Anthony Davis? Did anyone at the Boston Globe ever warn the Celtics not to trade Brown for a washed-up Paul George? Maybe if they would have, those deals could have been stopped.

See, I’m just looking out for my readers here. You know, trying to provide a community service. Isn’t that what journalism is supposed to be about?

Jaylen Brown just did a Twitch stream. Said he was still processing the trade, called VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey (both picked up), said he was looking forward to meeting AI (and professed his love for the black jerseys) and said… “The Process is back, motherfuckers.”

Even if they thought this was the trade value for Jaylen Brown, what was the dire urgency to make the deal now? Couldn't they have revisited his worth in the fall or at the next trade deadline? What was the rush? He's signed for 3 years. There is a big piece of this story that is untold.

this surge of "well, Jaylen Brown isn't that good anyway" discourse from the Celtics-obsessed media and Celtic fans themselves is hilarious 💀 🤣 #nba

Brown says his key card for the Celtics’ practice facility has already been deactivated. He tried to get in the building after the trade and it rejected.

I don't know if the Sixers are going all the way in 26-27, but I have good feeling they're going to win every match against the Celtics.
