Nothing is ever quite as easy as it seems on the surface in the NBA. This especially stands true when it comes to contract negotiations, trade talks and everything in between. The latest proof of this seems to be the Celtics and a potential supermax contract extension for guard Jaylen Brown, which ESPN’s Brian Windhorst detailed.
While discussing the current state of the potential extension on SportsCenter, Windhorst offered some insight into what he called a "fragile" deal. When all is said and done, the ESPN analyst believes the two sides will come to terms but made an interesting note on Boston's side of things.
"The side are talking, this is obviously a very important, fragile deal. I know that there's interest in both sides to get something done. I would expect it to head in that direction."
