The only person driving JB out of Boston is JB with all the stupid things he is saying.  His conduct, actions, and statements are what is causing almost all of this.

I had zero problems with what he said on his first stream. It was perfectly clear to anyone reading his words that his "favorite" comment was not dissing Tatum. He is not responsible for others twisting his words. Some people intentionally read it wrong and then others didn't even read it and went with false narrative they were given. That's not on him. Anything else is unhealthy boundaries.

Do you think it was wise for him to say that immediately after a first round playoff loss?  Particularly when he played poorly in Games 5 and 6?

It wasn't just that though. It's the whining about the refs, and the beef.with SAS, and not taking accountability for his bad decisions, and all of it.

I think his statements about the season were just poorly phrased when he made them after getting knocked out.  I took it as him enjoying a season where the team came together to exceed expectations and some personal satisfaction in showing the detractors were wrong about the team sucking as well as him not being able to lead a team to a good record as the best player on the team.  no knocks on Tatum or anyone else.

the issues with the refs -- he's got a point.  he gets a really crappy whistle as does Tatum.  no other high-profile players in the league get less calls when driving to the hoop. 

SAS -- > SAS is a worthless, self-promoting Asshat looking for clicks by twisting what JB said into the worst possible interpretation.  JB should have just set the record straight on what he meant and left it at that rather than engage with that moron but in doing so has come out looking like as much of a fool as SAS

as for accountability, I'm pretty sure he held himself accountable for the team's failure in the first round  but perhaps I misread that.  he, as well as the whole team and Joe, need to look in the mirror and realize they had this series and gave it away through horrible play.

I do not mind the stream afterwards a ton with what he said. I do think he was trying to also boost up the younger players too and himself of course.

The continuous drama though is now too much and I get he is trying to use the streaming to get himself out there but I think the opposite is happening. And the worst outcome of all of this is that it may even slightly hurt his trade value. That is the last thing we need from him right now.

only if Brad's plan is to trade him.  if JB stays, no harm except possibly irritating some Celtic fans that don't care for him anyways

Or some Celtics teammates.  Or some potential free agents.
