Grande: Jayson Tatum-Jaylen Brown Drama Could Last for YEARS | Celtics Beat

Celtics radio voice Sean Grande joins Adam Kaufman and Evan Valenti for the 700th episode of Celtics Beat to break down why the drama between Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown may be far from over. Grande explains why the situation reminds him of the Kevin Durant-Russell Westbrook breakup, responds to criticism surrounding Celtics broadcasters and the “PR team” conversation, and weighs in on whether Jaylen has been unfairly portrayed since the trade. The guys also discuss how Brown may have felt disrespected after his MVP-caliber season, Tatum’s outstanding start as a facilitator and potential MVP case, Paul George’s fit in Boston, Mitchell Robinson’s slow start, the Celtics’ brutal upcoming travel schedule, the NBA Cup and which teams can actually survive a wide-open Eastern Conference.
