Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have developed into phenomenal players for the Boston Celtics. The Celtics’ future looks safe with the two being their leaders. But is it finally time to worry about their postseason performances?

Even in the 2020 postseason, the Celts couldn’t make it all the way to the finals. They were one of the favorites to come out of East. However, Miami stopped them in their tracks.

Jaylen Brown talked about the expectations for this season in a media conference.

I am not worried at all,” said Brown. “I believe in our system, our coaching staff, and the guys we have. We just gotta come out and get a rhythm, get a feel for it with each other. Obviously, we got some guys that are out and obviously we got some guys who are stepping into new roles and we’re just going through that process.”

Despite missing Kemba Walker for at least the first half of the season, Boston has plenty of star power. They should be able to hold their own until Walker returns to the team. Brown said, “It’s a long season, we all know that. We would love to have that learning process sped up. But we are gonna stick with it, I believe in this organization and system and team. I feel like we would improve in the right direction.”
