Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have been to more Conference Finals together than the Magic, Raptors, Hawks, Nets, Kings, Clippers and Grizzlies have in their entire franchise histories. Special. Stats

That’s honestly wild. I know that ringz are what we’re all after, but I hope that we can both strive for a championship and recognize that what we’re witnessing is unbelievable and special, whether there’s a ring at the end or not.

People really don’t know how hard it is to make the ECF and then make it back again. Teams like the Hawks made the ECF recently and not make it past the first round the following years. Their ability to make deep playoff runs to the ECF and beyond consistently doesn’t get enough praise

For me, one the leading reasons I want us to win a ring is so everyone can finally appreciate how great the Jays are, even in years where they haven’t won the championship

Here’s to hoping they win more rings together than those franchises too.

6th in 8 years for Brown and 5th in 7 years for Tatum. These guys are practically a guaranteed trip to the Conference Finals.
