Bosses on fire.

Jalen Brown, there's a lot of business left for the Celtics. They've got a lot

going on. Jalen Brown is eligible. Five years and $270 million at a super max extension in this

offseason. And the sides are talking. This is obviously a very important, fragile deal.

I know that there's interest on both sides to get something done, and I would

expect it to head in that direction. The one thing that's to point out, if Jalen Brown does extend

on this deal, he could not be traded for a year, for any deal at all. He's prohibited from being

traded. So the Celtics probably want to make sure all their business is locked down before going

into this. Why do you call it fragile really quickly? Well, I just think it'll get done, but, you know, he's eligible for up to 35% of the salary cap, but he doesn't have to get that. The Celtics can negotiate on that. They can negotiate on a player option. They can negotiate on several things. So it's not as simple as saying, Jalen, here's your contract, sign it or not.

And until it's done, it's not done.

It's why we're waiting, waiting all the world to change.

We'll keep on waiting.

Waiting on the world.

Wow, very soft song coming back there, Ryan Beaton.

We actually have an update.

Wow.

Monday I was like, we haven't heard from Jalen Brown or anything about Jalen Brown.

And then the report from Brian Winhorst called it a fragile deal.

When I hear that, it makes me feel like they're being delicate or it's a very delicate situation.
