K<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-durant" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">evin Durant’s </a>decision to join the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> is one of the most discussed and debated in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> history. Some hated him for it, while others thought it was actually fun to watch.



Regardless of where you stand in that controversy, I think we can al agree that it changed the league forever. Moreover, it also had a huge impact on KD’s legacy, for better or worse.



Recently, businessman Rich Kleiman shed some light on what went behind closed doors during the summer of 2016. In a shocking turn of events, it turns out that it was <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a> the one who told him to join the Warriors.



<h2>Tom Brady Advised Durant To Join The Warriors</h2>



“I remember when the Celtics came, it was the Celtics leadership, Danny Ainge, Jae Crowder, Kelly Olynyk. But then came Tom Brady– they went to take a walk together,“ Kleiman said on All The Smoke. “Later on, KD was like, ‘He told me to look for the best team, best organization, best chance to win. I think Brady told me to go to the Warriors.’ He made the decision based on basketball. There was nobody else and once he went through all of that, it was clear.”



Ironically, Brady was supposed to be there to help the Boston Celtics get him, but perhaps his California roots made him change his mind at the last second, considering he grew up rooting for the San Francisco 49ers.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230928#BUS#69599"></div>


At the end of the day, Durant can’t complain about his tenure in the Bay area. He won two NBA championships with two NBA Finals MVPs, and no one can take anything away from him. Perhaps, he should give Brady another ring, though.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-jets">New York Jets</a> had a lot of expectations on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a> for the 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season, but it took only four plays for the four-time MVP to suffer a season-ending injury.



Even if the 39-year-old manages to recover faster than predicted, chances are that he wouldn’t return to the gridiron before the playoffs. But without him, the question is whether the Jets will be able to make the postseason at all.



Since Zach Wilson has failed to step up so far, many names have been linked with a possible move to the Big Apple. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady">Tom Brady</a> quickly turned down that possibility, and now Matt Ryan also made it clear he’s not considering the idea.



<h2>Matt Ryan not interested in joining the Jets</h2>



“No, not on my end,” Ryan said when asked if he’s interested in playing for the Jets, via Pro Football Talk. “But, to clear it up, my agent is one of the best at what he does — Todd France is incredible. And he wouldn’t be doing his job if he wasn’t looking into certain situations. But he and I talked and I’ve got no interest in doing that right now. I’m enjoying what I’m doing.”



Ryan hasn’t officially announced his retirement yet, but this season he joined CBS Sports as an analyst. The 38-year-old struggled last year with the Colts, completing 67 percent of his passes for 3,057 yards with 14 touchdowns, 13 interceptions, and 15 fumbles in 12 games. Besides, he was sacked 38 times.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230913#BUS#61830"></div>


Before that, he enjoyed a wonderful 14-year stint with the Atlanta Falcons, winning the NFL MVP award in 2016. That season, he also took the team to the Super Bowl, where the New England Patriots pulled off a historic, 25-point comeback.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady">Tom Brady</a>‘s legendary career is boasted by seven championships. In order to have those significant victories, his mindset played a remarkable role in maintaining his competitiveness despite the achievements.



The NFL legend shared some of the powerful driving forces behind him during an interview with Patrick Bet-David at the 2023 VAULT conference. Brady touched on how he used the anger as motivator to continue having success.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230917#BUS#64296"></div>


Brady then explained, “You’ve got to create a lot of different emotions to heighten your sense of awareness and focus. For me, anger was good. Anger was good because it was motivating. The more I could create an enemy, the more I wanted to go out and kill those guys.”

<h2>Tom Brady Details Why He Wasn’t Friends with Opponents</h2>



Brady also touched on the difference with the current era when it comes to approaching the rivals. The former player said there weren’t smiles with him, but that was the case with other greats. He proceeded to mention Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Tiger Woods, Mike Tyson, Joe Montana and Muhammad Ali.



“I didn’t have any friends on the other teams. My friends were the guys who were in the battle with me. So, it’s very different in today’s age. Everyone’s friends now in sports all the time, and I don’t get that. It’s just not my thing. ” Brady expressed that he loved Peyton Manning, but that they weren’t friends while they were competing.



Brady acknowledged that he had a different approach when he wasn’t retired: “When I was a quarterback, I was just playing quarterback. Yes, it was me the person. But it was me the quarterback who was out there because I was doing a job. I wasn’t the father, or the husband. Nothing was gonna get in the way.”

Tom Brady's Speech on the Importance of Creating Enemies - Bolavip US

With <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a> out for several months, fans started wondering if the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-jets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Jets</a> would be interested in pursuing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a> as his replacement. Now, the seven-time <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Super Bowl</a> champion has given his final answer to this intriguing question.



The 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season has not started in the best way possible for the Jets. In the first drive of Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback, the Super Bowl XLV champion got injured, and he will be out for at least the reminder of the regular campaign.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230919#BUS#64883"></div>


Following Rodgers’ Achilles injury, the team’s fans were not thrilled with the idea of having <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/zach-wilson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Zach Wilson</a> as the starter once again. This led to several rumors suggesting that they were interested in signing another veteran quarterback, with Tom Brady being the most commonly mentioned name.



<h2>Tom Brady’s final decision on the possibility of replacing Aaron Rodgers in the Jets</h2>



Prior to acquiring Aaron Rodgers, the Jets were also interested in adding Tom Brady. However, the seven-time Super Bowl champion retired at the end of the 2022 season, and that’s why they pursued the former Packers player.



Now that Rodgers is out for the rest of the regular season, the idea of Tom Brady dressed in green has returned to New York. Nevertheless, the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Patriots</a> player has rejected the opportunity.



During this week’s episode of his ‘Let’s Go! Podcast’, Brady was asked by Jim Gray if he would make a second comeback to play with the Jets. “No, no, no — next question!” Tom answered. “You already know. I love being with you guys on Mondays and I love what we got goin’.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230918#BUS#64394"></div>


<h2>Which veteran quarterbacks could replace Aaron Rodgers in the Jets?</h2>



As of today, it seems like the Jets will stick to Zach Wilson as starter, but there are several veteran quarterbacks available in the free agency such as Carson Wentz, Matt Ryan, or even Joe Flacco that the team could pursue to replace Aaron Rodgers.

Tom Brady’s epic reaction after Shedeur Sanders sent him an appreciation message

Tom Brady&#039;s alleged girlfriend Veronika Rajek &#039;reacts&#039; to his retirement from the NFL

A few months&nbsp;ago,&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a>&nbsp;officially announced his&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/Tom-Bradys-alleged-girlfriend-Veronika-Rajek-reacts-to-his-retirement-from-the-NFL-20230201-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">retirement from the NFL</a>. Following a very disappointing season with the&nbsp;Buccaneers, the 45-year&nbsp;old quarterback said goodbye.&nbsp;



After his college career at Michigan,&nbsp;Tom Brady&nbsp;was selected by the Patriots with the famous 199th pick in the&nbsp;2000 NFL Draft. When&nbsp;Drew Bledsoe&nbsp;got injured, Brady received the opportunity by head coach&nbsp;Bill Belichick&nbsp;and the rest is history. Six&nbsp;Super&nbsp;Bowls&nbsp;won with&nbsp;New England&nbsp;and one more with&nbsp;Tampa&nbsp;to become the greatest player ever.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230916#BUS#63890"></div>


Now, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> legend could be a key piece for the success of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/deion-sanders">Deion Sanders</a> and Colorado. The story was shared by Coach Prime’s son, Shedeur Sanders, who is a strong candidate for the Heisman Trophy in college football.



<h2>Tom Brady is a mentor of Shedeur Sanders with Colorado</h2>



Colorado are having an amazing start of the season after three wins against TCU, Nebraska and Colorado State. Shedeur Sanders has been sensational as one of the most important prospects in NCAA.


 

 


During the victory at Folsom Field facing the Rams, Sanders led a 98-yard drive to tie the game and then was unstoppable in overtime. “At the 2-yard line, all I was thinking was Brady Mode. That’s it. Simple. You left too much time out there.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230904#BUS#56898"></div>


Following that statement, Shedeur Sanders was asked if Tom Brady had become his mentor. “Yes, of course. We talk after every game. I’m sure he’s gonna text me in a second, but, all I was thinking was Brady Mode. If he could do it, I know I can do it. We’re just alike.”

Surpassing a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady’s</a> milestone is no easy feat, but <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-lions" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Detroit Lions</a> quarterback <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jared-goff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jared Goff</a> is on the verge of breaking a remarkable record set by the seven-time <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Super Bowl</a> champion during the 2022 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season.



Jared Goff played his first season with the Lions in 2021 after being traded from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Los Angeles Rams</a> in exchange for Matthew Stafford. This move immediately paid off for the Californian team, as they won Super Bowl LVI, thanks in large part to their new quarterback.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230908#BUS#59920"></div>


Two years later, it seems like Goff is ready to prove that he’s still a reliable quarterback. The Lions are regarded as one of the best teams in the NFC, and he wants to live up to the expectations by guiding his team to success this season.



<h2>Jared Goff is close from breaking an incredible NFL record</h2>



According to oddsmakers, the Lions are the favorites to win the NFC North this year. After two seasons in Detroit, Jared Goff wants to earn a ticket to the playoffs, and maybe even compete for the Super Bowl this year.



In personal terms, Goff is currently experiencing one of the best moments in his career. After their Week 1 game against the Chiefs, the quarterback managed to complete the match without making any mistakes, having thrown 359 consecutive passes without being intercepted.



This is the 3rd-longest streak in the NFL, only behind <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a> (399) and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a>, who managed to throw 408 passes without an interception back in 2018 while playing for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Packers</a>.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230904#BUS#56802"></div>


<h2>How many interceptions has Jared Goff thrown so far?</h2>



Throughout his 8-year career, Jared Goff has thrown 70 interceptions; 55 with the Rams and 15 with the Lions.

<h2>Rob Gronkowski gets real on Tom Brady as replacement for Aaron Rodgers</h2>



After social media went crazy pointing out Tom Brady should come back to the NFL as the new quarterback of the Jets, Rob Gronkowski talked about the possibility of getting him out of retirement. It all happened during an interview with&nbsp;Kay Adams when she showed him a photo of the legend in that uniform.







“Yucky. I don’t think I could talk to Tom Brady anymore if he goes to the Jets. No, no, no. That’s not happening. No. Just not the Jets. I’ve played for the Patriots for nine years. We dislike the Jets.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230330#CMS#0006"></div>


Even though the situation could be ideal with a great defense to support Tom Brady, Gronk won’t support this idea at all. “I don’t hate the Jets. We just don’t like them. That’s not happening.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/baker-mayfield" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Baker Mayfield</a> was signed this offseason to step into the role of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady’s</a> successor for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tampa-bay-buccaneers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a>. Now, the former 1st overall pick has explained why the retirement of the seven-time <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Super Bowl</a> champion has been positive for the NFC South team.



At the end of the 2022 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season, Tom Brady chose to conclude his successful 23-year football career. Despite the Buccaneers’ front office’s efforts to retain him, the quarterback had no intention of returning for another campaign.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230908#BUS#59582"></div>


In need of an experienced quarterback to fill in for Brady, Tampa Bay found Baker Mayfield available in the free agency market. It won’t be easy for the former Rams player to live up to the expectations, but the Buccaneers are confident that he will show the entire league why he was the first overall pick in 2018.



<h2>Baker Mayfield explains why Tom Brady’s retirement has been possitive for the Buccaneers</h2>



Week 1 of the 2023 season was a huge challenge for Baker Mayfield. After three years with Tom Brady leading their offense, the Buccaneers had to rely on the former Oklahoma player, and he did a great job with an incredible win against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a>.



Baker, who successfully connected on 21 passes out of 34 attempts, accumulating 173 yards and scoring 2 touchdowns, was ecstatic about securing his first victory with Tampa Bay. Now, he has disclosed that the team channeled all the negative comments stemming from Brady’s retirement and transformed them into a source of positivity and motivation.



“It’s kind of been the motto for us the whole offseason through training camp,” Baker Mayfield told PFT about the team’s mindset in response to low external expectations. “I mean, I think you guys see the narrative on the outside of what everybody’s picking against us. We know the talent and the group that we have within the locker room. That’s the most important part. So we’ll take a road win to open the season no matter what, especially in an environment like that.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230909#BUS#60512"></div>


<h2>When was Baker Mayfield drafted?</h2>



With the 1st overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a> selected Baker Mayfield. He was chosen ahead of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saquon-barkley" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Saquon Barkley</a>, who landed in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Giants</a> with the 2nd overall pick.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a>‘ season-ending injury has brought a lot of questions to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-jets" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Jets</a>, including the possibility of a new veteran quarterback in the Big Apple. However, the team has now ruled out two players as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-potential-replacements-for-aaron-rodgers-20230912-BUS-61503.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">possible replacements</a> for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Super Bowl</a> XLV champion.



The 2023 NFL season started with a bittersweet taste for the Jets. Despite their victory over the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/buffalo-bills" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Buffalo Bills</a> in Week 1, they lost Aaron Rodgers to an Achilles injury early in the game.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230913#BUS#61815"></div>


Once Rodgers left MetLife Stadium, all the fans began raising questions about the team’s future. It was uncertain if they were going to bring in another experienced player to fill his absence, but now the club has finally addressed the matter.



<h2>Jets close the door to two veteran quarterbacks to replace Aaron Rodgers</h2>



Robert Saleh, head coach of the New York Jets, has <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/who-will-replace-aaron-rodgers-robert-saleh-addresses-jets-qb-situation-20230912-BUS-61697.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">confirmed that Zach Wilson will be the starting quarterback</a> from now on.

Brady stated: “I think the advice I gave different guys is if they’re looking at their careers. ‘Just make sure you leave it all out there.’ Because you never want to have one drop left and think, ‘Ah, everyone’s out there playing, and I’m sitting up here, and I still feel like I could do it.’ I don’t feel like that. I feel like I’m just super content with my decision and where I’m at in life.”

The&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-evans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a>&nbsp;are ready to face the unknown after&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a>&nbsp;finally announced his&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/Tom-Bradys-alleged-girlfriend-Veronika-Rajek-reacts-to-his-retirement-from-the-NFL-20230201-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">retirement from the NFL</a>. As a consequence, the franchise will definitely go into a massive rebuilding process.



Of course, the big question for them is at the quarterback position. Baker Mayfield&nbsp;has been named the starter, but the truth is there are many questions around this offense.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230816#BUS#47707"></div>


Now, in a shocking turn of events, the Buccaneers might let walk way their biggest star on the roster even with nine straight 1000-yard seasons in the&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>. First, Brady is gone. Then, it could be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-evans">Mike Evans</a>. 



<h2>Buccaneers won’t give a contract extension to Mike Evans</h2>



The Buccaneers have officially decided not to extend the contract of Mike Evans. The wide receiver publicly said September 9th was the deadline to reach a deal and that won’t happen.


 

 


As a consequence, the star will play the last year on the agreement and then will become a free agent in 2024. Undoubtedly, he’ll be one of the most desired players on that date. 



Evans signed a&nbsp;five-year, $82.5 million&nbsp;agreement in 2018. That’s why, entering the final stage of the deal, many experts thought the Bucs had to retain their star player.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230823#BUS#51369"></div>


Furthermore, even in this situation, general manager Jason Licht doesn’t plan to trade Mike Evans. Maybe, by the end of the season, the Bucs will make a final push depending on how things evolve in 2023.
