Brad Stevens on why he traded Jaylen Brown: “The path looked a little bit more challenging to me with 70% of our cap and such a high usage into two players and the reality in this era and in this day and age in the NBA you have to... show more

He quietly saying out loud that new CBA is fucked but the players have themselves to blame for signing it

Brad Steven in his Nico Harrison aura gamble run.

@2HYPEPG13 Building depth by trading the guy that led the way for an entire season for a guy that’s averaged 48 games played the last 7 seasons.

This is bullshit because he traded him for a player that’s on a max contract… so most of their cap for the next two seasons is still tied up in two players. He didn’t get depth. If that was the case, he would’ve moved him for the Charlotte deal (Naz Reid and Miles Bridges)

Nigga lying through his teeth because if he traded for Giannis, 70% of their cap and usage would still be between two players

Yet Paul Georges contract is also enormous, so this is a bullshit answer.

Could have kept Brown who’s a finals MVP and led the team instead of Tatum who doesn’t have the accolades/came off a serious injury. Excuses from Boston smh

JT and PG still take up 70%~ of the cap sooo....

good news, no shot at a title now so costs will go down 😂

I understand that but sending him to the team that just walked tall down is crazy

This would make a lot more sense if they didn’t spend the beggining of the off season trying to trade for Giannis and then bringing in Paul George and his 110 million over the next two years

So JB was traded because of Cap and front office not willing to pay him or go into the luxury tax but instead the media destroyed that black man’s name who has been nothing but amazing to the Boston community and was the main reason they won that ring.

This nigga looks like a chimpanzee

Paul George max is 211 million Jaylen brown is 285 million he definitely lying

And that’s ok, but why the smear campaign? I didn’t like that part

My question is did you not see this coming when you resigned him 2 years ago? Do u not have the math guys to say “hey this is expensive today and will be more expensive tomorrow”?

Lmao saying that after trying to trade for giannis and extend him lmao

But u traded him for a nigga that’s older than him and on a higher contract🤣🤣🤣🤣

We literally were being praised for our depth going into the playoffs… Mazzulla refused to use our depth & we blew a 3-1 lead Now y’all care about Depth to the point of trading JB?! MAN GET THIS SHIT TF OUTTA HERE Fuck Brad Stevens & Fuck Bill Chisholm

I've been a Brad Stevens fan for a long time. This is BS and he knows it. Trading for Giannis and signing him to an extension is the same ordeal. Don't lie to the fans, they deserve better.

You traded him for an older guy making the same amount of money lmao

Comeplete bullshit Brad knows this had nothing to do with money lmaoo

Translation: "NIggas thought we was about to eventually pay two dudes +$400m."

Good luck betting on the guy recovering from a torn achilles over a healthy mvp candidate in his prime.

Says the same person who was trying to trade for Giannis, does he think people are stupid???????

Then why didn't you tell him that?

Paul George is on the same deal Jaylen is lol just one less year

🐂 💩

Then why was he trying to trade for Giannis?

He tried his best not to say the KNICKS... SOME OF THE LAST CHAMPIONS...YEAH BITCH THAT'S US MFKER.. 🗽🏆🧡💙

Y’all are so heavy headed bro take off the nostalgia glasses and recognize the bigger picture

Trading Brown isn't the problem, it's what they took back !

What you didn’t hear him say is, “this trade made us a better team.” He said flexibility. Better salary cap in 2 years. But didn’t say better team.

"The fuck is Brad talking about?" - Joe Lacob

So what Giannis contract would’ve did?
