(Windhorst) Celtics prefer making logical good basketball decisions instead of poor ones

This is the smart decision. He’s still an insanely valuable asset even under the supermax.

“Celtics plan to make good decisions.” (Rumor)

No shit, Sherlock. One bad series doesn’t mean he’s a horrible player who needs to be traded.
Edit: Wanting to trade Jaylen is almost as brain dead as my fellow Dodger fans who wanted to trade Kershaw every year. All idiots.

I feel like all the conversation around trading Jaylen is so ridiculous.
Give him the contract, max tatum next summer. If trade deadline of 2025 we feel we need to make a move we can still move JB with 3.5 years left on his deal.

As they should. Give these guys security and let them focus on basketball.

Cant wait till brown is extended asap, already feel so annoyed keep hearing “brown in another team” whether it’s other subreddits, YouTube, podcast, everywhere atp

They’re literally the most successful duo in the league since they were drafted. No other pair of teammates have more postseason wins.
Look at all the other great players and teams that can’t get past the second round. Meanwhile these two are in their 4th conference finals out of six seasons. And they’re both still getting better every season.
The idea that they “don’t have what it takes” is the most myopic nonsense.

Celtics plan to keep together highest scoring duo since Shaq and Kobe, this just in the sun rose in the east for the 46371911637394625183rd consecutive day today

Bring the Jays back…but We should maybe hire a dribbling coach for the team. Lol

As they should. Any team would kill to have these two.

Caps gonna spoke about a year after his deal kicks in so getting replacements for role players isn’t the horror story we’re getting now. Tatums will be the real story as it’s super max money on the new TV deal, but there’s no use worrying about that now. Paying 100m a year if the caps around 200m isn’t really a problem.

This is A+ detective work, Windy. What other “no shit, Sherlock” news can you dig up today?

Read this as Celtics would prefer offering super max to Brown, instead trading Jayson.

Do you all feel its a risk that he might walk after next year? Him and Udoka are tight and he is wanted in Houston.
LOTRcrr
Makes sense honestly. I know we were all miserable after game 3 and wanted to blow the team up but what exactly do you get by trading Brown? An aging veteran with a ton of miles and huge salary like KD or Lillard? Or multiple draft pics that won’t turn into anything of value for 5-7 years? Its the only logical choice. Keep building the role players out, and find a suitable replacement for Al and maybe move him to the bench.

As they should. These guys can be the centerpieces of a very successful team for years to come.

OF COURSE THEY DO. if they trade Jaylen he’s on a one year expiring contract that can’t really be extended. Any team that would look to acquire him would have a huge flight risk on their hands, that kills his trade value. You are looking at pennies on the dollar.
Meanwhile, the C’s have been really good with Tatum/Brown. Re-sign him and he’ll have trade value later if you want to go that direction.
Bearded_Pip
Good! Any other path would be asinine.
lauromafra
There is no reason to consider trading Jaylen unless a young all nba caliber player becomes available.
Pretendtobehappy12
Isn’t this what the Celtics have said they were always going to do? Wyc saying he was willing to pay the tax was precisely because of this… it doesn’t take a genius to figure this out
JasonHanky
We will wait and see how this ages
sidestyle05
Pay them asap. Once the cap spikes again, the contracts will be very tradable
MtotheT123
Have any of the “trade Jaylen” crowd ever noticed how other fan bases salivate over the idea of getting Jaylen? Rightfully so. My Knicks fan friend sends the same Jaylen in a NY uniform pic any time I voice my frustration with the Celtics.
We are so lucky to have a long future with these two to build around.
