Jaylen Brown never shies away from voicing his opinion and that didn't change following the Boston Celtics ’ 109-100 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers . Brown went on the streaming platform Twitch on Sunday, May 3 to discuss what happened in Game 7 and spoke about the officiating. Brown had been critical of the officiating during the regular season and believes it played a role in how things were called during the postseason.

“They clearly had an agenda, maybe because I spoke so critically of them in the regular season,” Brown said on his stream. “I actually spoke to some refs, and they told me there’s an agenda going on each game, every time Jaylen puts his arm up, just call it. ” Brown explained that it was a simple basketball play that several other players do.

“Philly took advantage of that and the officiating and it cost us to some degree,” he added. The five-time all-star also shared his displeasure with 76ers star Joel Embiid. "Flopping has ruined our league,” Brown said.

“Joel Embiid is a great player. One of the best bigs in basketball history. Flops.
