Back on? Man City extend title race with necessary Palace win
Man City extends title race with a crucial 3-0 win over Palace!
Jaylen Brown of the Boston Celtics has publicly opposed tanking, emphasizing a commitment to compete despite challenges. He believes tanking undermines the team's culture and competitiveness.
Tanking was never an option for the Boston Celtics. Or, at the very least, it would've never been approved by Celtics star Jaylen Brown.
Heading into the 2025-26 NBA season, the Celtics were expected to be without star forward Jayson Tatum for a substantial chunk of time as he recovered from an Achilles injury. And while Tatum did eventually come back late in the regular season, he missed over 60 games and left the C's undermanned. However, Boston didn't play like it was shorthanded. The scrappy Celtics posted a 56-26 record and finished in second place in the Eastern Conference.
Jaylen Brown expressed that he does not want to be part of tanking and emphasized the importance of competing regardless of circumstances.
The Celtics finished the 2025-26 season with a 56-26 record, securing second place in the Eastern Conference despite missing star player Jayson Tatum for over 60 games.
Brown's anti-tanking stance contributed to the team's competitive spirit, helping to develop inexperienced players, even though they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
Brown believes that tanking rewards organizations for poor performance and undermines the competitive integrity of the league.
