The Boston Celtics are the defending NBA champions. That means that they have the biggest target on their back possible. Every single game they play, they are getting the other team's best shot. Boston is also not playing very well since the calendar flipped to 2025.

Celtics fans showed their solidarity with Tatum (and to a lesser degree Brown, who lost out on a replacement spot on the Team USA roster to the very deserving Derrick White) in November, when they booed Kerr mercilessly when the Warriors visited TD Garden.

The drama surrounding the move has quieted down in recent months as the NBA season continued but resurfaced again on Monday. Cameras caught Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown appearing to give Kerr the cold shoulder after Boston’s blowout win over Golden State.

Because it has always been zero days since drama at NBA headquarters, a lot of people took notice of an awkward interaction—technically non-interaction—between Warriors coach Steve Kerr and Celtics star Jayson Tatum after the game.

Kerr's Warriors repeated as champions in 2017 and ’18, and no team has done it since. “I wouldn’t worry about the Celtics if I were one of their fans,” Kerr said.

Jayson Tatum hasn’t forgotten about the Olympics. After the game, an intriguing postgame interaction added fuel to the fire. Tatum and Curry were seen deep in conversation, with Jaylen Brown standing nearby.

Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown appeared to snub Steve Kerr after Monday's game between the Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors. While Tatum was speaking to Steph Curry after the game, Kerr stood around awkwardly appearing to wait for the Celtics star to acknowledge him.
