Brown: Players have endured tremendous pressure and harassment from fans, and the league must defend us

In an interview with the media before the team's away loss to the Knicks on Friday local time, Brown pointed out that the league has not yet fully responded to the tremendous pressure and harassment experienced by players due to fans participating in some competitive games.
Brown said: "They will say, 'You make so much money, you should be able to bear these negative emotions,' but this actually creates a negative public opinion atmosphere between players and the game.

If there had been more dialogue now, many of the problems would not have worsened." Brown, who played with Rozier for the Celtics from 2016 to 2019, said the accusations were "inconsistent with Rozier's character."
"Obviously, if they are innocent, the public repercussions of this matter are very bad for them," Brown said. "We have to make sure that if they are ultimately proven innocent, their image can be restored. The most important thing now is to get to the bottom of it as quickly as possible."
