They were a force to be reckoned with.However, Brown was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers during the off-season, and many people felt that Tatum was the reason why that happened, even though he said in a recent interview that he had no idea that the trade was happening.Brown responded with a ‘cap’ emoji, sparking even more debate on social media.Jayson Tatum says he hates the false narrative that has caused the Jaylen Brown dramaTatum was clear in his interview that he was only made aware of Brown’s trade to the 76ers after it was done.The latter clearly seems to think that his old teammate is lying, and that has led to many people speculating that there is bad blood between the two players. The ‘cap’ emoji fueled those rumours even more.However, Tatum is adamant that there is no such thing and claimed that he really dislikes how people are building a narrative about their relationship and making comments about what will happen when the Celtics face the Sixers this season.He said, as per Click On Detroit: “I’ve seen all these things like, ‘Get your popcorn ready when they play.’ This ain’t no f****** boxing match. Play basketball.“There’s no animosity. There’s no beef.“I just hate the way the conversation and narrative around it inflamed it. There’s not enough communication. I think conversation would solve and put out a lot of fires.”Tatum repeatedly claimed in his press conference that he is open to talking it out with Brown and clearing the air over whatever differences they seem to have.“He’s just turned 30. I’m 28. I’ve got two kids. As adults, it’s a conversation. I’m not saying it’s a bad one or anything like that. Just communication usually gets to right (or) wrong, you’ll understand the other side,” he concluded.The Celtics face the 76ers in the second week of November at the Xfinity Mobile Arena. We’re sure all eyes will be on Brown and Tatum in that game.Read more:‘Needs to stop whining’ – Boston Celtics fans go off on Jaylen Brown for his reaction to Jayson Tatum’s recent comments‘Still the second option’ – NBA fans call out Jayson Tatum after Paul George’s electric Celtics debutDeMarcus Cousins blames NBA legend for ruining Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown’s bond on the Celtics
