The Boston Celtics finally found another team serious about trading for Jaylen Brown. Following a couple of weeks where everyone offered their own opinion about the star's true value, the Philadelphia 76ers came in with a real offer—"real" in that it existed and was accepted, not that it was good for the Celtics.
Those dreams of acquiring Giannis Antetokounmpo or even Jamal Murray in exchange for Brown did not come to pass. Boston's reality is this, as reported Wednesday night by ESPN's Sha...

Here are three main reasons why the Boston Celtics decided to pull off a shocking Jaylen Brown trade with the Philadelphia 76ers last night.
Before Wednesday's blockbuster trade that sent star guard Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers, the Boston Celtics reportedly had a difficult time coming to terms with the likelihood of parting ways with one of the faces of their franchise.
In the wake of the Boston Celtics' shocking trade of Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, rumors emerged regarding recent trade interest in Jayson Tatum.
The blockbuster trade that sent Jaylen Brown to the 76ers did more than reshape the East. It also allowed Stephen A. Smith to revisit one of his most controversial takes.

What unfolded at Citizens Bank Park was nothing short of a nightmare for Paul Skenes.

The Philadelphia 76ers narrowly avoided disaster by rejecting the one the thing the Celtics desperately wanted in the Jaylen Brown trade.
I think it’s safe to say that the Phillies have Paul Skenes’ number this season. They roughed him up for the second time this season after teeing off on him in Pittsburgh back in the end of May. Take a gander at this stat from friend of the site Paul Boye: That’s what we like […]

The 76ers did what the Detroit Pistons refuse to do.
It’s Game 7, and the Celtics are playing small. No Jayson Tatum for the night, a DNP for Nikola Vucevic, and Jaylen Brown is on the block with a posted-up Joel Embiid. And this wasn’t some small ball hard trap. Jaylen Brown is on an island with a 280-pound former MVP. With nine minutes left […]
