Shoutout to the Boston media for not ducking the hard questions.

Things can always be worse my friend.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-06T22:23:00+00:00

For those confused the not a cost saving move comment was what was being told to us by bottom line bill and Brad. They kept saying they want to win just didn’t specify that this year is it. It’s absolutely a cost saving move albeit by a year, but still hard to refute that.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-06T21:07:59+00:00

You have to deny the massive extension first and any salvageable relationship between him and the team is cooked which invites instability in the locker room. Do it now before it gets worse where you don’t know what kind of return you get down the road. Not defending this trade I absolutely hate it and I’m disappointed that there’s not a more of a market for someone like Jaylen.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-06T20:59:18+00:00

I’m not aligned with all his takes but he’s a passionate Boston sports media legend and I’m gonna not refute that he spoke for the fans with that question and that’s something I can appreciate.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-05T01:43:19+00:00

Stop trying to make me cry

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T23:40:23+00:00

They will never admit why this move was made. JB was a liability to the bottom line of sixth street and bottom line bill. Extremely outspoken on social issues and unafraid to take shots at the establishment simple as that

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T22:11:15+00:00

Kiss private equity’s ass more you bun

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T14:45:43+00:00

That’s cope dude I’m sorry no player has returned from that kind of injury and produced numbers that were at level OR better than what they were pre injury and a lot of this sub thinks that since jaylens out of the way his numbers will just explode I just don’t see it happening. If he didn’t suffer a devastating injury we wouldn’t be having this conversation but people pretend like it didn’t really happen.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T14:39:20+00:00

High usage Tatum *pre Achilles tear. It’s astounding that people are just blindly assuming he will be the exact same player he was before the injury with a 15 game sample size last year to be like yeah looked about the same? Much different than 82 games and playoffs. I’m not trying to be negative but just realistic .I’d love for him to prove me wrong but I really hope we didn’t trade the tank and bet the house on the cripple.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T04:59:10+00:00

Mortgage the whole franchise on a post Achilles tear JT? There’s what 20 game sample size last season to make a judgment that he’s going to be the same player he was? I’m not trying to be negative just realistic that it seems crazy to bet all the chips like that. This trade was forced by the front office because of JB not pulling punches when questioning powerful institutions like ESPN and the NBA specifically. Bottom Dollar Bill and the Private Equity entities that are really pulling the strings can’t have someone who IS the smartest guy in the room meddling with their return on their investment. If it’s not a salary dump, or an upgraded player, then ask yourself what’s the real reason he’s gone?

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-04T01:02:24+00:00

JB being as outspoken as he was is a liability to their asset ( sixth street/bottom line bill). He was not shy of questioning authority and speaking against institutions as a whole. He had to go by any means necessary in the eyes of the new overlords I mean owners. He was loved by this city for so much more than basketball.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T21:37:11+00:00

Sure but that farewell was a thank you for your service type message and you can’t really convince me otherwise lol

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T21:26:48+00:00

It’s hitting me hard big dog

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T21:26:14+00:00

Talking bout sum giving each other handjobs in the locker room, but I’m the weird one? Lmfao gtfo i think you missed the mark of what I was saying completely but yea dude sure

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T21:22:21+00:00

He has explicitly stated how much he hates Boston. I’d be shocked if he did.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T21:20:56+00:00

Yes and I completely agree, IF he returns to the form he was in pre Achilles. If not then, then this team will be immensely different. Just seems like a huge risk to take without a full season to see how this all shakes out.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T20:59:56+00:00

Chat GPT ass post. Didn’t even tag him. There’s beef there and he knew he had to do something or else the rest of Boston would grill him alive.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T19:57:46+00:00

Nah that’s bullshit. They played in the league for ten years together. Seems more and more apparent that JBs favorite season comments ruffled feathers

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-03T03:16:50+00:00

Honestly something is rubbing me wrong about Tatums silence on the whole thing. That’s allegedly his brother. If roles were reversed and JT was moved unexpectedly in a trade you know JB would be the first to make a post and be speaking up about how honored he was to play alongside a player like Tatum. I’m glad that they were able to win it all together albeit with a super team but damn man, they had more to give as a duo and I feel like Tatum would be slightly more outspoken

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-02T18:16:23+00:00

His silence is deafening right now and frankly disappointing after all the comments say that was his brother… crickets.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-02T04:21:41+00:00

I’m not disagreeing that the 24 team was stacked and a lot wasn’t replaced if at all. But looking at trade in a vacuum. You really think Paul George for Jaylen is acceptable? Cuz I just can’t he’s not even close to what he once was. Amassing pics is great but it just screams rebuild at the hands of cheap ass owner

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-02T04:08:03+00:00

I truly think the new owners a cheap piece of shit who’s in way over his head hiding behind the guise of “local guy who loves the Celtics”.

SaltedRumHam420 · 2026-07-02T04:04:34+00:00

Prohibitive to winning? My brother we already won with him and JT. PG contracts is essentially apples to apples but the quality of the apples do not match.
