I'm really struck by how mature and intelligent both tatum and brown have become at their young age, even more so than what they can do on the court. the celtics have got a GREAT duo.
Didn't realize he was still so young. Boston's lucky to have 3 young, intelligent, hard working players in him brown and smart. If they keep playing together imagine when they're 28-30 years old. Will be telepathic on the court
i get they're young for NBA players but they're not 12
they're old enough to LEGALLY drink alcohal
@@chrisc4507 no you are talking about that. The main comment clearly isn’t
@@pandabear1576 the main comment is talking basketball, you slow?
hes such a great role model
JJ it's incredible how comfortable everyone is with you. Ik you're a baller so they all have respect for you. But you must have a good vibe about you. Big fan of the show. I watch every new episode. Please get Anthony Edwards. That would be a huge one
Reddick isn’t just a baller tho. The way he carried himself on the court is where comfortability comes from. There’s only a handful of players in this world like him.
Coz he whyt
Thurskii
It's because he allows them to tell their own story. Most of the media tries to tell a narrative while JJ is letting players tell theirs.
JJ went through a lot in his Duke years. You can tell he’s grown immensely from his experiences.
tatum's train of thought is way mature than his age and how some perceive him to be. he may not be a very vocal leader but he's self aware, he communicates with his teammates and has good control of his emotions. he may not be built in the mold of a kobe or mj, in terms of his leadership skills, but im sure he can lead this celtics team in his own way
Kobe was an awful leader lol
@@ejshsvevwnhehehsb2669 Kobe got results
@@ejshsvevwnhehehsb2669 at first..but in his later years he was better in later championships
No he cant lol. You thinking about Jaylen Brown
Well said
Shout out to JT for answering those questions head on. Seemed honest and genuine. Most dudes won’t talk about this type of stuff
Yeah, surprised he asked him and got straight not fluff answers
just over 6 minutes of pure being realness
@@jaron-craighunter4485 yea for real
A
Watching a future legend evolve into a leader.
As a Celtics fan I would be insanely pissed if they traded either of them. We want them both in Boston.
I definitely second that 🙏🏾 been watching them since college
Hope y’all enjoy losing then
@@daniell5740lmao I won’t say anything back, you’re already taking an L in your name
@@AA-il9pc LMAOOOO
Take this W good sir.
Any real celtics fan would laugh at the idea of breaking up the jays, its ridiculous
@Versatile Wolf NWO jayson and jaylen
Its all media driven especially the stupid Boston media.
Exactly....
The remedy for making it work is ball movement, and they're clearly fixing that.
@@jayy88 TOO TRUE!
Bro I love everything about this. JJ just flat out asking the most obvious question nobody wants to ask. JT answering it honestly. I love how podcasts have become a forum and almost a therapy session for these players man. They open up to JJ easily.
One of the biggest “What If” scenarios when it comes to Tatum & Brown is what if Gordon didn’t get injured in the opening minutes of the 2017-18 season? Would that have hindered the growth and development of Brown & Tatum? Really interesting when u think about it.
Imo a better question is if the whole team could have functioned and won a championship which includes kyrie. Can't forget how well the celtics played together before and after Hayward went down, as brief as that time period was. Craziest possible butterfly effect.
Just to play the devil's advocate, the fact that the Celtics went to the conference finals without Irving and Hayward actually might have set the team back. I watched nearly every game the next season, and it was glaringly obvious that JB, Tatum, and Smart had decided that they were the future and could win without those two. It got to the point that Kyrie, JB, and Jayson would take turns playing one-on-five and Hayward became nothing more than a decoy. The team has never fully recovered. Let's hope that the last 10 games are a harbinger of things to come.
I really feel that the scenario would've been they'd have won a title but it would've been with Tatum and Brown as less important pieces they'd be leading a super productive second unit
@@mc76 turns out the second half of the season continued on being successful! Kind of fun to look back at your comment with the C’s heading to the 3rd game in round two after sweeping the nets and putting a hurting on the bucks in game two. Game one was the punch in the mouth we needed!
@@mc76 I have great news for you
This is a real conversation and not just an interview. The transparency is just fantastic! Im subscribing. Thank you JJ and JT! Much respect! Ps miss u on the court JJ. U were deadly
Update. As expected the sports media here in Mass is of course trying to create “stories” around this interview by acting like Jayson was implying certain things that he was not implying. They always do that here, they try and make things out of nothing. Jayson was honest and humble during this interview and I know he is smart enough to just laugh among his pears about the propaganda the media is deriving from this interview. Keep being u J! U r a good guy. Boston media are pros at chasing talented players out of town
@@kevinkeene9158 they did that with Kyrie, made his primadonna personality even more deranged
I’m so tired of this speculation glad they spoke on it
Same as the Don, Gobert duo
@@AdTurnerr well that's over now 😩
@@DaMillerBoi fr jazz need to rebuild I think or get Donovan Mitchell a dominate offensive sidekick. A way to do that could be rebuilding?
Brown is definitely one of the more intelligent cats in the league. Very smart dude. Lots of folks do not know that about JB.
Do you have an intelligent measuring meter in your brain, how can you make such a statement?
Him and kyrie could have been the woke duo
@@ig6894 I think he was recruited to MIT but went to the nba and he also had a 4.0 GPA
@@dododump3144 bro is the embodiment of excellence
@@ig6894 Cal Bear baby. He didn't choose that for the hoops program. He knew it's still pac-12 and he got it up top.
I like the way Jayson speaks about himself. He knows his talent and where he stands but isn't delusional about his peak and where he is right now.
I would never want to trade away Tatum Or Brown. They’re a dynamic duo I love watching them play together
It all starts here. Get their first ring, continue to improve every year, and eventually they have the potential to enter the conversation of the very best duos this game has ever seen.
Honestly I love Tatum and Browns dynamics on the court ! More growth is definitely needed for sure but if they can do it together and get more pieces can come around and help them mature their games scoring 50/60 is cool but a player with a complete game is rarely found around the league these days I think they can help each other in the long run
It's so weird how they didn't pay Terry but signed Walker who was an older less explosive version of Terry
Because walker was an all star starter at the time and was basically a lateral replacement for kyrie. It was a good move at the time. Hindsight is always 20/20
JT did say he didn't know how good Terry was til they were in an open gym. It's probably the same with management. When he was talking about starting while Kyrie was there a lot of people, me included, thought his ego was too big. He showed us all we were wrong. He'd have definitely been a better fit than Kemba for this team.
Ainge caved to media pressure and wanted to sign Walker to make up for Kyrie's departure. If they re-signed Terry in 2019, Horford would have came back to the team and they probably beat Miami in the bubble.
Kemba was coming off an all nba at the time
@@karimzakaria9621 damn now u made me sad
As a Celtics fan hearing our key player talk this positively about our past issues and how communication has helped,is amazing and this just shows that this more than just a team and the chemistry between them all is incredible and JT humbleness is truly sensational💚💚💚💚💚
JJ, your podcast is one of my favorite shows. The depth of your discussions, both basketball-wise and personal, are at a different level than any other shows covering basketball. You’re an incredible moderator and interviewer, and your intelligence is apparent. Please keep this going
As a Cs fan, I LOVE AND WANT THEM TOGETHER ON THIS TEAM!!! Very grateful to have them both and heartwarming to watch them grow. 💚
They need a PG like CP to take them all the way to the Finals.
reggie jackson
ish smith
Smart
Damn with Cp3 it be for sure.
Players like CP don't grown on trees. There is only one CP and he is on Phoenix. It would be nice.
I love those two together, they are exactly who I wanted the Celtics to draft, I hope they always stay on the Celtics together.
Crazy to think we in such a good place with them it came from no where
yo jj, i was watching you during your orlando days but man, this interview got me hooked up. and kudos to jt answering those questions head on! banner 18 for C's this year!
Let’s call it the Skip Bayless effect- sports media know that any outrageous hot take will get more attention and be talked about endlessly when compared to any sensible take. That’s why Steven a smith goes viral and jaylen rose doesn’t
This is kind of great and grounded human being you need on a basketball team.
Not making a fuss of an out of pocket comment. He realizes how important Markus Smart is to this team and doesn't let his ego break them apart.
Phenomenal young man
These young Celtics have had more success than most teams in the last 5 years. 2 conference finals already. Dame and CJ lucked into one and got swept. The Celtics have had a close game 7 with Lebron and a 6 game series with the Heat. They are doing great. They do need another piece, but Timelord is looking nasty on defense. That guy is special.
Bro your interviews are amazing
Terry should still be a Celtic Ainge messed that up . Kyrie move looked great on paper but IT was crazy loved in Boston and the karma of trading him after he played through broken teeth, death of his sister, and everything caught up to them instantly
3 months later they’re about to play their first NBA Finals game tonight
The only issue with that team is they need a traditional pg
Smart is great
@@landonlakes4782 Smart is great player no doubt, still I think Celtics needs more than him to be a contender.
I’ve wanted this for so long. Playmaking pg, similar play style to someone like rondo, smart at sg, jaylen sf, jayson pf, Williams C, solid lineup for sure
They have the best starting 5 in the NBA rn no need for anything right now. They’ve got Derrick White, Pritchard, Grant Williams, and Theis for bench come playoff time. It’s a great rotation
@@quentinwilkins7111 that’s not a great rotation, it’s an average rotation that over achieving
Good interview- subbed
Jaylen had a slow start because IT was never looking to pass him the ball. He would literally just stand in the corner. It infuriated me.
Facts
That’s was his role at that time with it averages 29
Nah, I agree that JB should have played more, but avery bradley and jae crowder fits well with Isaiah. They had a great year and went to the ecf that year man, it wasn't isaiah's fault, I.t. is also a willing passer but he didn't spend much time on the court with JB. It was more about the team prioritizing vets than developing JB at that time.
He didn't play a lot as a rookie and his role wasn't understood yet - and the staff wasn't interested in figuring it out yet
but it did win them games
Nice to hear some Scary Terry love 🔥
these are one of the best pods for basketball man. love it. Keep it up JJ
Imagine if they kept Terry and traded Kyrie.
Celtics need a playmaking point guard. Terry is a scorer.
@@verifiedwill imagine if they traded kyrie for cp, and brought terry off the bench
@@betting-n-arbs1015 They were desperate to replace IT
Our on court issues would have gotten worse
@@verifiedwill if the celtics had someone like tyrese haliburton they would be set
Real Celtics fans never wanted them broken up. That’s national media just looking for a story
Damn right we didn't. The dweebs in the NBA media were trying to attribute their bogus narrative to our fanbase. You don't break up these 2 gentlemen.

Subscribed! Love your podcasts!
Real Celtics want both of em in Boston for a long time
Celtics fans don’t want the Jays broken up-that’s just the toxic local media. I hope Tatum and Brown know that-their going to be absolute Boston legends, when all is done.
Exactly
Bingo. See 98.5 the sports hub
It's not Tatum and Brown the problem. It's Boston lack of talent and depth everywhere else.
They def could use a true PG tbh.....smart works well more as a 6th man....if they are going to make a deep playoff push ball movement and defense will be key
Yall realize these ridiculous contracts are a problem right? Lol
@@thegreat9481 that too....it will probably be a issue on the next cba contract dispute tbh
@@jman1562001
I hope so. I understand the owners make a lot off of players but at the same token its no reason non stars should be getting paid out the azz.
They need a limit on the star players too. Because overall those two combined make it hard to build a solid roster.
I believe the biggest reason Simmons couldn’t be moved sooner is because his contract doesn’t match his skill.
@@thegreat9481 that and Simmons took a stance of not playing games while relatively healthy....that could set a terrible precedent for other players if they feel disgruntled and by choice not honor their contractual obligations. At the end of the day every player can be replaced hence why players seek to maximize their talents to the highest bidder even if its not what they are worth on the floor....teams might not win games but they can will always get young players. Developing them is a different story.
he's so mature and believes in himself. tatum is definitely someone you don't want to get rid of and jb is impossible to let go. they've gotta stay together. they're the forward version of klay and curry, you can't break them up.
This is such a good episode JJ is on the come up
The Celtics are in great hands with J&J.
As a Bostonian, I never want Tatum or Brown to leave. 2 of my favorite NBA players and they compliment each other well.
Gotta keep this squad together. Hopefully this starting 5 of JT, JB, Smart, Williams, & White can get to play together for several years with Theis, Pritchard, Nesmith, Williams, & Horford coming off the bench.
Jaylen and Jayson dont wanna break up. No one in the Celtics community wants them to break up. Other people will say "Oh they have the same game, Celtics cant use that to win"...😐 Bro what? Thats not true and thats not even the problem, the issue is the guard play. They need a Ben Simmons, Lonzo Ball, Cp3 type PG to pass them the ball so they can utilize the double threat potentail of scoring defensive wings. Its the same as what the Clippers needed with PG13 and Kawhi.
Great questions jj
Good work
From their first season together to this moment this season when rumors were flying but to get to this point and really prove a lot of people wrong together is fulfilling
I really like how JJ says who ‘they’ is. subtle detail, but highly impactful!
Much love and you in boss.
i love how he says he thinks he’s one of the best player. literally nothing wrong with speaking your truth it only feels wrong because you know people get mad for your success
Let them grow together, I think they have the talent to win 2-3 championships.
Jayson Tatum has become my favorite current nba player. Not only is he an amazing basketball player but an amazing FATHER and THAT right there is beautiful and melted me and continues to melt my heart. I love to see the dynamic of Brown and Tatum and Daddy JT and Deuce JT! Tatum is one to look up too.
I really like Tatum and Brown on a purely personality level. Would enjoy cheering for those two if I was a Boston fan.
My family and I from the Philippines 🇵🇭 always give love ❤️ to Celtics. Go Celtics
If the Celtics ever trade JB or JT I am turning in my Celtics Fan Card
U lying 🤥.. if Celtics trade KD for JB , u will be happy as hell!
@@busdriver6588 That aint ever happening tho
Same
@@busdriver6588 not really
i like this podcast.. i cant believe i typed it but it seems so calm and natural and not full of foolishness
I don’t think the answer to the Celtics problems is trading away either of them and Jaylen Brown has been on a team friendly contract. Their problem has always been the guys around them and injuries. The front office needs to figure it out, but losing either of them without getting something major in return is bad business.
Hell no trading JT or JB is a big time wrong move
Tatum is literally my favorite young player matter my favorite player in nba. It's good to see young Lions being humble about their talents
We're in The Fukkin Finals 💪 Boston in 6
JT and Jb missed playing with Rozier, JT always talked highly of Rozier
Yeah every Celtic loved this Trio everybody saw a big 3 in the Future
I was never much of a fan of Jason Tatum mainly because I’m a Heat fan and our two teams have had a rivalry for a while now. But after watching a few interviews with him, he has definitely grown on me. Young well spoken dude great player could tell the guy is a man of intellect. Respect to Tatum great player
What an Amazing Answer !. Tatum and Brown are going to do some amazing things in this league !
Dam man my guy said it perfect! We don't need to break up these two up. We need to continue to let them work!! I'm in my late 30s an honestly. They have been two of my favorite guys to watch an cheer for. It isn't always perfect but like he said. They are figuring it out. An once the celtics finally do something to make them better! Like adding that 3rd guy to tale some of the load off of them two!. That's a lot to ask for! To have to perform every single night cause nobody else really can on the team!!
After watching this, when Bleacher Report is gonna upload highlights of this guy, Ima like em.
This is why Jj Reddick's podcast is important. It allows the player to say what they want!
I like this podcast because everybody just keeps it 1,000 and you hear everybody’s genuine opinion on everything
Them going their separate ways in my opinion would not benefit either JT or JB. Give it some years. They have the potential to grow into a dynamic, one of the best 1-2 punch combo (I feel they are already) and a contending team in the east every year. As a Celtics fan I could care less about the quick success. I’m in the for the long haul and want to see how they make this work. If they could get an all star level big man in the rotation in the next few years I feel they will be scary.
Jaylen Brown showed his value tonight!!
JJ can get his peers to open up…what a time to be alive…as sports fans we live in a time where we can get a look behind the curtains of what really goes on with these teams/franchises across all leagues!
Just become a fan of Tatum, so humble and yet so honest, and so mature at his age. Wow.
He put it in perspective saying the grass isn't always greener and I like that mindset
Boston is smart enough to know they should not break them up…. I hope
I’m from Boston, and these Media talking heads don’t speak for us JT. We would be pissed if they traded one of you. I’ve loved your game since Duke. So glad you’re on my team!
the people need them together, u can laiterally see the growth in both of them visually and verbally their starting to realize ITS SHIP SZN AND THAS ALL WE KNO. seems like the chemistry issues in nba come from ego and lack of the team being close knit. when they can have those tough convos it will pull them through the rut to something better and above the rut
I can understand why Smart said he loved you guys before the trade deadline. Very mature and understanding reaction to what happened. They seem to all have a pretty good relationship.
All the younger guys are comfortable with JJ Reddick in this setting because they all used to hit clutch 3's with him on their franchise mode when they would trade for a clutch 3pt catch and shoot guy but couldn't afford Klay Thompson so they grew a bond with him
I liked that.🤗 JT is so genuine. I love my team.
That core group seems really tight. I hope the $ works out that we can keep
it together and still maybe do something cause everyone is always hollering about traded. That "chemistry" piece......it's
IMPORTANT. All great players can't necessarily play together. It's tricky.
People should think of that more before saying who we should get/get rid of.
“terry is like ridiculous. they should let him do more” those are comments about Rozier are gold lol
We do not want you guys gone. REAL fans agree with that
As a Celtics and Raptors fan, don’t wanna see a legend of duo break out AGAIN after 20 years and then thinking “what if” when they retire.
the most important part of a dynamic duo is both parts wanting to coexist
Amazed with Tatum’s maturity! This definitely adds to his dearness to me
As a Raps fan who’s doesn’t like the Celtics, this interview made me respect Tatum even more
That was a great answer about breaking them up.
as a lakers fan i love watching them as a duo
Yes as a Celtics fan! I appreciate your honesty
Now we in the finals 💚
I just respect Tatum how he went up to smart man to man and had a convo about it instead of tweeting or doing some media stuff to bash smart back
agreed!!
Redick and Gilbert need a podcast
The Marcus Smart question just seems more genuine coming from JJ rather than the “media.”
Should have kept Scary Terry. He played team ball instead of stop the ball and one on one time, everyone else on offense watch.
“Do you want to be here, and we’re both like yeah” 🥲
Tatum one of most understanding players keeps it 💯 and doesn’t make it up to you to take it apart
its crazy how intimate these conversations are. Who tf needs ESPN?! Gimme JJ
Now they goin go the NBA Finals 💯
Tatum: "not to toot my own horn but i think im 1 of the best players"
3 months later: "ALL NBA 1ST TEAM"🔥😂
I love jayson man so excited to see his future
If I have to take a glass of wine every time he says "you know" for the entirety of the podcast, I would be drunk 🤣.
P.S. Always great content by JJ.
Danny Ainge has said that he could find defenders, he could find rebounders or playmakers, but you can't just find scorers and that he'd never trade two scorers of the J's caliber.
Best podcast
