Kemba Walker may be the best player on the Boston Celtics, but the All-Star says Boston is Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum's team.

Brown and Tatum are playing like All-Stars this season and it’s a sight everyone in Boston is thrilled to see:

“They are two special players,” Walker says, via ESPN. “And this is their team. I love watching them when they are in a groove together.”

The Celtics have a good shot at winning the Eastern Conference this season. For that to happen, Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Gordon Hayward all have to play at a high-level.

Many believe one of the reasons Brown is flourishing this season is because he got his contract taken care of. Brown signed a rookie-scale extension with the Celtics before the season started, so he’s playing free now and turning into an elite two-way player right before our eyes.

Tatum, meanwhile, has always been a talented scorer. He’s become more efficient as the season has gone along. Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge is starting to look really smart for not trading Tatum and Brown for some of the superstars who have requested trades over the past few seasons, that’s for sure.
