Brown is in his eighth season in the NBA (all with the Celtics), and has already been to the Eastern Conference finals six times.

This will be his second trip to the NBA Finals.

However, the Celtics have been unable to win an NBA Championship since the 2008 season when Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett were still on the roster.
