Is it wrong to say that the Boston Celtics made a bad decision by trading Jaylen Brown?

I think so, but only because I'm going based on talent. There's absolutely no debate in my mind that Brown is an elite player, and getting Paul George back for him really doesn't make a whole lot of sense for a Celtics team that's looking to win.
Regardless, there are other reasons to make trades at times, and that was evidently part of why the Celtics decided to go the route they did.
But now the question remains: how happy will Brown be in Philadelphia if the Philadelphia 76ers make moves this summer suggesting they can land LeBron James?
With a team featuring James, Brown, Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and others, there's a scenario in which James could cause some frustration from Brown's perspective. According to the latest, one executive recently questioned that.
“Jaylen is a great player and he is not going to be a locker room problem or anything like that, but if he wasn’t real happy sharing the ball with Jayson Tatum, how happy is he going to be in this set-up? Isn’t it the same issue?” one NBA executive said, per Sean Deveney.
It's almost crazy to say this could have some truth to it, as Brown has shown he wants to win and is willing to do whatever it takes.
However, it feels unfair to say that he doesn't want to be the top option. He showed that during his time with the Celtics, so I don't know if that will change in Philadelphia.
