The week began with a fierce battle between Jaylen Brown of the Boston Celtics and ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith. Essentially, Brown called out the journalistic integrity of Smith on his Twitch livestream by saying:

“F*** Stephen A,” Brown bluntly stated. “My offer still stands. You want me to be quiet and stop streaming. I want you to be quiet and get off these networks. You’re not using your platform to do real journalism. You’re using your platform to use clickbait.”

Naturally, Smith fired back at Brown on Monday’s episode of ESPN’s First Take. He virtually attacked the quality of Brown’s Twitch livestreams and offered some “friendly” advice.

“Get your a*s a studio. You looking like you in some dungeon in some little room… You making $54 million a year… get a studio with a director & a producer. … Stop being so damn cheap. You got the money.”

Lately, Smith and Brown have been feuding. It all began after the Celtics blew a 3-1 lead to the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round of the playoffs. Smith threw the first punch by calling out Brown for going on his livestream following the loss.

Afterward, Brown went on his livestream and called for Smith to retire. After the Celtics were eliminated in the playoffs, Smith said that Brown should be traded to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The feud could be traced back to 2024. Brown threw shade at Smith by wearing a t-shirt that read “State your Source” during the Celtics’ 2024 championship parade. This was after Smith had questioned Brown’s marketability as a star player.
