Tatum needs to play his ISO more off screens. He's trying to 1v1 too much. Maybe he doesn't need to assert himself more yet, but momentum matters a lot.
These convos on ESPN lack context. Tatum is double/triple teamed every time he touches the ball. Rather than force it, he opts to set up his teammates and it leads to winning basketball, which is what it’s about. Not one player’s stats.
JT doesn’t have to go nuclear every series because the Celtics got 6+ guys that can get you 30 on any single night. Celtics are really the only team that’s been damn near perfect and still get talked down to
I think that Tatum is best offensive player on the team but when it comes to importance to the team and the scheme Porzingis and Brown matter way more simply because they are far more consistent and can do more on the defensive end
celtics are 6-1 in the Playoffs winning by an average of over 20 points a game and Tatum is letting his teammates eat early and playing team ball. Yea let’s be concerned about Tatum lol. He’s done the carry the team on my back stuff before. He needs the team around him like everyone else.
So all the other things tatum is doing doesn't matter. Rebounds, assist, steals, and blocks don't count anymore especially when tatum is being double and sometimes triple teamed…on a team that won by 25🤣🤣🤣🤣The media has lost it! GO Cs☘️🍀☘️🍀
The Celtics won by 25 last night, and Jayson Tatum didn’t shoot well. The narrative SHOULD be the Celtics are balling without Porzingis and without Tatum shooting well. ESPN sucks with these takes man, how can we be saying this stuff when the Celtics just continue to win 😂😂😂 shut up man, C’s in 4
Greatness??? SGA and Ant are cool cute stories but they're the same age as Tatum. Tatum has made the ECF on rebuilding teams and as a rookie took King James to the last minute of game 7….
SGA and Ant are having playoff success for the very first time in their careers, and by that point in his career Tatum had already made 3 ECFs… what are we doing here?
Only the media and petty fans care about stuff like this when you win by 25. If the Celtics win the title and Tatum averages 10 Celtics fans ain’t gonna give 2 craps
See this is what I mean you guys always talking nonsense how hypocrite you guys are keeping an in the MVP conversation all year at least that’s the way basketball used to be played. You give it to the best player on the best team in the league and does us and he been overlooked for too long, this time to give him some respect he shows up through the whole season he’s showing up in the playoffs right now. He don’t have to do it all in your mind. You guys need to do it all for us to win we got all the people that can score you guys either are morons or ESPN is not the TV show that he used to be which one is it?
Boston wins bye plus 20 and yet they are worried about tatum. When did the main goal to be drop 40 points instead of prioritizing team ball and a win? Only losers care about individual stats! What you should be worried about is how Boston much Boston will win by when tatum does go off!! These people are really dumb! Boston was definitely the big favorites at the start of the s Eason favorites at the end of the season and favorites when the playoffs started!
I'm tired of hearing this crap. Even when the Celtics are 64-18, the still have something to prove. Even after 5 of the 6 games they held their opponents to under 100 (I know it's Cavs and the heat that's not lost on me) but come on. We don't even have porzingis rn and I'm looking at a hungry Jays, A dynamic duo of defense in the White Holiday and no one wants to talk about PP, Hauser or the prolly the most motivated person on that team and most underrated big man Horford. Hell even Kornet is lookin like he should be starting. And Mazulla can't get love, name me a coach that started 121-43?? That's ridiculous, everything about this team is ridiculous. Ppl just hate because half the teams in the league would lose to them If they started the White Boi lineup (PP, White (bc the name) Hauser, Porzingis and Kornet)
It's hilarious these people believe Minnesota will be the same towards the ecf and even the finals! 😂 The finals is a different beast. Boston has been there. Minnesota isn't mentally prepared for that. If Boston makes it to the finals. It's over.
I don't agree, the Celtics are looking strong with other players leading in scoring. They fail to speak about Tatum is averaging double digit rebounds, that means he rising his play to help in the rebound area. These talking heads be wrong every year, 21 POINTS 10 rebounds is second only to the center in Denver 27/15. Tatum understands it championship time he has help this year in the scoring area. GO HELP IN THE REBOUNG AREA. Bring home the championship as a team
Championship or bust mentality in Boston. Tatum remains the same person no matter how the media perceives him. Just patiently beating teams until the Finals start.

Celtics win and they still get hated on 😂😂
No issues with Tatum stop it players go through this
Tatum needs to play his ISO more off screens. He's trying to 1v1 too much. Maybe he doesn't need to assert himself more yet, but momentum matters a lot.
Boston is also a top 2 defense in the league , they can will games with defense too, not just Minnesota, they also have more firepower than Minnesota
We talkin bout the west 15 seconds in??? They playing Cleveland right now. And you know SA is gonna pick the knicks so slow down clown show

the 62 celtics????? 😂😂😂😂

Tatum is not the best player on the team. I keep telling people he is not better than Jaylen brown

THE GLAZING OF THE TIMBERWOLVES IS RIDICULOUS, ALL THESE OTHER TEAMS NEED ONE GUY TO CARRY THEM NOT THE CELTICS!
Does SAS know we have won every game in the playoffs by 20+ points
DOGGY dropping knowledge

Still the disrespect towards the Celtics continue on the Finals Tatum Brown White Holliday and Kristaps they going to shut you all up.
Last two time Tatum play Timberwolves drop 30 and 43 just a reminder.

Reminder that the same things that we are all praising Anthony Edwards for right now, Tatum has already done.

You would think the Celtics are losing 😭😭

LUKER- GALLANARO. SMH
Celtics winning the chip period!! People keep talking that shit. They in cruise control. Sit back watch the greatness.
FanDuel and Draft Kings need to drop the price on Tatum. He shouldn’t be the same price as Anthony Edwards if he ain’t balling like him right now.
It’s funny how confident Steven a is that the Timberwolves going to the finals I’m not saying they aren’t but it’s just funny lol
Bro was a +18 had a double double and played great defense and won by 25 and this what we lead with lmao
