When he was not taking star Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown to task on the most recent episode of his eponymous podcast, Golden State Warriors veteran big man Draymond Green also spent some time taking a closer look at what the future might hold for Brown's ball club after a surprising exit in the first round of the 2026 NBA Eastern Conference Playoffs.
Green was far from alone in this, but mercifully -- at least, compared to those still trotting out a particular tired trope -- did not appear to have any interest in discussing whether the Celtics ought to break up stars Jayson Tatum and Brown this offseason due to concerns on whether they fit on the court.
"The big question is: what’s next for this Boston team?" asked the Warriors vet. "Is it the end of the Jaylen Brown–Jayson Tatum era?"
