Context of the exchange

The Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics made a trade in the offseason. The Philadelphia team acquired All-NBA winger Jaylen Brown and sent to the Celtics wing Paul George and 4 picks.

Declarations on Monday

Brown said on Monday that he is still adjusting to life with the 76ers and has been bothered by speculation about his trade.

"There are phases, sure. There's a mental side, an emotional side, a physical side. There is a set of stages for getting comfortable and organizing yourself, and some adjustments are new. Every day is one step forward, so I'm just doing my best".

Character speculation and data analysis

Brown called it "worrying, maybe a little strange" to hear Fox Sports' Colin Cowherd claim sources told him that Brown was traded for character issues.

"There's definitely some undertones in there".

Repercussions on the old team

Jayson Tatum spoke about the trade on Celtics media day and said that losing Brown was "difficult".

"The entrepreneurial side of NBA always comes in and has influence, all the time, and I've seen that throughout my 10 years in the league.

Coach Joe Mazzulla opened the session by thanking Brown for his contributions to the team and city, before expressing support for Tatum.

Current point

The current situation is one of gradual adaptation in the 76ers, with Brown seeking routine, physical comfort and mental and emotional togetherness. For fans, the trade shows that Philadelphia bet on an All-NBA player but the cost involved Paul George and 4 picks.
