On Boston’s Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown being ranked outside the NBA’s top five duos

The ire stems from it placing All-NBA Boston Celtics forwards Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown outside of the top five duos in the league for next season, coming in behind more than one duo that has never sniffed the NBA Finals while playing with the other half of their respective duo.

Check out the clip embedded above to hear what they had to say about the diss for yourself.
