Celtics planning to move forward with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown
The Celtics intend to move forward with their All-NBA tandem of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, sources said, despite Beal’s immense talent and close relationship with Tatum, a friendship that dates back to childhood roots in St. Louis. The Philadelphia 76ers, often floated right behind Boston as a potential Beal suitor, are also not expected to target Beal, league sources told Yahoo Sports, regardless of whether Harden decides to remain with the franchise.

Last week I got a call from @tim_cato with an idea: Luka Doncic & Jayson Tatum are next up, so why are they in such different spots on the path to a title?
The more we thought about it, the more we realized it’s a fascinating story in team building: theathletic.com/4611813/2023/0… – 10:17 AM

Was just thinking about those great Tatum-Beal duels from 2020-21. It’s amazing how long ago that feels. Beal hasn’t done much since, and it’s hard to assume he turns it up in a new destination. Trying to get him without Brown won’t work, and trading Brown for him isn’t worth it. – 2:37 PM

Just asked Spo about Bam defensively (taking on Giannis to Tatum to Jokic) and if he feels he’s a better defender than even a year ago:
Says he’s arguably the best defender in the league
“He’s 1 of 1.”
Notes that he doesn’t get recognition due to lack of blocks and other stats – 1:40 PM

Shoutout to Bam Adebayo looking back on this playoff run
From Antetokounmpo to Tatum to Jokic
Having to try and neutralize some of the best players in the world, all with different skill-sets
He’s always going to be scrutinized for some reason, but appreciate that stuff – 5:15 PM

The Nuggets won a championship through a dynamic offensive pairing of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray that could never be stopped.
Though they are much different, Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown need to copy their approach to win a title.

More on this storyline
The Celtics are believed to be prioritizing signing Jaylen Brown to a supermax contract this offseason. “My feel from talking to sources is that the Celtics are not necessarily in on this one,” said Brian Windhorst. “Their intention is to get Jaylen Brown on a contract extension this year. Even if they got Jaylen Brown done, the idea of bringing in Bradley Beal would be extraordinarily difficult because of the three contracts together. -via RealGM / June 15, 2023
