Not only did they lose in the first round for the first time since 2021, but they also became the first Celtics team ever to blow a 3-1 series lead in the postseason. Boston overachieved during the regular season, winning 56 games and earning the two seed in the Eastern Conference despite missing Jayson Tatum for most of the year. Jaylen Brown was a major reason why, stepping up in Tatum's absence with an MVP-caliber season and the best year of his career.
Unfortunately, Brown and his teammates squandered much of that goodwill during the playoffs, ending the season on a terribly sour note . Despite the Celtics' disappointing finish and historic collapse, Brown dropped a shocking assessment of the campaign on his Twitch livestream on Sunday.
