Jaylen Brown can’t stop talking about referees after getting slapped with a $35,000 fine Monday for his postgame rant after the Spurs loss. Instead of backing off, he recently doubled down on his criticism, claiming that officials provide special treatment to certain players.
While some are showing agreement with his build claim, a handful of folks are getting irritated by his constant complaining about the league and its officials.
Fans Roast Jaylen Brown for Whining About Refs for Selective Treatment
Brown’s latest comments came after Celtics got just four free throws in Saturday’s 100-95 close loss to San Antonio Spurs. The worst part? He didn’t get a single free throw despite playing 43 minutes. Due to that imbalance, Spurs finished with a 20–4 edge at the line.
That visible gap frustrated Brown. He claimed officials refuse to call fouls for Boston while whistling the opposition for touch fouls. Brown emphasized the inconsistency drives him crazy. For a team that prides itself on attacking the rim, that number feels disrespectful to Brown.

He pointed out that he does the same things other stars do on drives to the basket. According to Brown, refs just pick and choose who gets the calls based on some invisible agenda.
This marks Brown’s latest chapter in an ongoing war with the league. His complaint pattern has become too predictable for fans recently, and a handful of people didn’t shy away from criticizing him for his issues after every game.
One fan wrote, “Does this n—- ever stop bitching?”
Another fan added, “This n— complain about EVERYTHING.”
A third claimed, “Always crying..”
The fourth shared, “He is always bitching about something or calling himself the best in the league.”
A random X user shared, “Bro you’ve been complaining about the same thing all year, stop crying.”
The sixth one penned, “Never seen a player complain bitch and moan more than Tatum and brown.”
Brown has positioned himself as the league’s premier ref complainer. His approach contrasts sharply with other MVP candidates who let their play do the talking.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokić rarely complain about officiating publicly. Comparing them with Brown, it seems like the Celtics star knows nothing about showing his ice-cold beef with the league and his members.
