After (hopefully) putting to bed the tired and often lazy narrative that has gained far too much currency than it deserves this season that the Boston Celtics ought to split up their star wings Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, the latter of the two spoke at length on it, and how he and Brown have been in communication about it this season.
Speaking to this topic on the latest episode of retired NBA player JJ Redick’s podcast “The Old Man and the 3,” the two Duke alumni and podcast cohost Tommy Alter discussed how the two have responded to such critiques, what they said to each other about it, and their own thoughts on the strength of their pairing on the Celtics.
Regardless of your personal opinions on such a potential course of action for Boston regarding Brown and Tatum, this is a must-listen segment of a must-listen episode.
Check out the clip embedded above to hear Tatum’s thoughts on this issue.
