Jj fried 😂
Victor Oladipo exposed both Tatum and Brown last postseason. They can’t dribble left. This is common knowledge if you care about the defensive side of hooping. Block them from going right and be ready to contest the shot. And they also can’t pass in a pressure situation. Crowd them, run the clock down and when they can’t get a shot off they’ll throw a bad pass.
Why does Alex look like he’s sitting on a swing lmao
Tatum had 32, 28, and 36 against you Alex. Where was your coaching and defense then? If it’s so simple why did he roll you? 😂😂😂 get outta here.
How bout you keep it to yourself Jimmy!
Heat Players Rn🫣
My guy is the first white guard to make All-Defensive First Team since 1980
He’s been stellar defensively when it comes to guarding Tatum, Tatum is only averaging 28 PPG vs Caruso’s teams. Caruso has him ALL figured out.
How tf do you make an NBA all-defensive 1st team and you played 23 minutes a game. Shouldn’t be able to qualify for those awards when you spend 25 minutes on the bench. He’s a great defender but it’s a lot easier to defend with fresh legs
Blablabla 😂
Caruso can’t guard Tatum like what
You guys can try all this .. And people have – He still will drop 50 on your heads 😂 💯
Ok now do one for butler takes out notepad
When He wants to-JT can roll over and past anyone now
@MiamiHeat @MiamiHeat 😅
@JimmyButler
Why is every podcast about how to stop the cletics but not the jear
This is a Heat podcast! You the man JJ! 🔥🔥🔥
That's funny cuz those 2 are the ones who deep when it mattered the most in PO.
People loving the heat so bad they giving out free tutorials on beating boston lmao sad
🐐
Be efficient make Tatum play from behind, get him into hero ball, get 4 on the glass. Win.
Defense seems to be becoming a lost art of the game… im glad embiid won mvp it shows me that defense still matters a little bit.😌
Pfft sound easy, but who can def him now! Celtics in 4 vs Miami
this guy is talking too much… tatum would drop a burger on his head
JJ come coach the Suns..
Guard the side step 3
Tatum will be bullied by jimmy buckets. He cant play well when defenders are too physical with him
It’s funny to sit here and listen to Caruso act like he’d be shutting Tatum down cuz he’s so predictable 🤦🏻♂️😂
I know he said book and Mitchell, but I think he meant Steph…. lol lol
If the Heat win game 1 and Tatum has less than 20 we know the reason why 😂😂
Edit: dang it JJ…
Damn lie
Tatum is a flawed player. He’s not very good from a play making point. He doesn’t really have a handle either. Relatively easy to stay in front of. Taking away his three is key. Who cares if he gets to the rim. He’s not great at that either
JJ: "D Book and Mitchell according to you has the DEEPEST bag in NBA"
Caruso: "You are the worst!"
JJ: "You just said, they have deep bags, come on"
Caruso: "Did you just changed the words you put into my mouth 5 seconds ago?"
How to defend tatum: take his passport away so he doesnt travel in the game, damn he was carrying a ball like loaf of bread, just cradle it into his midrift no dribble involved. 😂 thought he was in costco
Unpopular opinion = trade the hipster that has crushes on shooters for Alex
No post game Heat win reaction?!
JJ Redick is getting destroyed by everyone. Is there anyone more smug and oozing with white privilege than him. Let him burn👨🚒🔥
Lol you're a gd moron and everybody sees it now, clown.
Your take on Ja is so stupid, you usually have sensible points but not in this, Chuck said all the things I wanna say fool
4th quarters have been playing the best defense on Tatum so far
JJ please repeat your dumb take on Morant. We need a good laugh man.
Now ask him how to guard Jimmy
as a celtics fan, not thrilled with the timing of this lol
I think Caruso smacked😂
Idk why but in-depth defensive analysis is so much more interesting to me than offensive talk.
