In the wake of the Boston Celtics’ 2022 NBA Finals loss to the Golden State Warriors, the old trope of splitting up the team’s two young star forwards has reared its ugly head again, with the premise being the same — that the two can’t win together — except this time around the goal posts have been pushed to the brink of credulity with the ‘winning’ they supposedly can’t do together simply be a title.
Given it was their first such attempt and LeBron James did not get the goods on his first go-around, we are going to go ahead and side with ESPN’s Jalen Rose on this one, who took some time to push back against that particular line of thinking on a recent episode of his semi-eponymous “Jalen and Jacoby” show he co-hosts with David Jacoby.
Check out the clip embedded below to hear what Rose has to say about the future of the Jay Team in Boston.
