The narrative is so anti-Tatum it’s not even funny. They don’t even want to give Jaylen Brown credit. “Oh he hit that crazy lucky three”.

Tatum Plays all-time great: “You see, this is who he’s supposed to be”
Tatum plays less than all-time great: “Tatum was terrible, unclutch and got bailed out by his teammates.”
Jayson Tatum isn’t allowed to be a good basketball player. He needs to play like one of the top 30 players of all-time every night, and when he doesn’t, he gets roundly criticized for it. It’s become really stupid and frankly, I’m bored by it.

3 time mvp blowing 3-2 lead, being terrible in game 6, choking 20 point lead in game 7 at home, getting killed on the board, shooting 0-7 from 3, while wolves closing the lead and somehow no one said a thing about that. At that time jayson and whole team gets hate for what ? Winning a FUCKING close game.
They just hate us, so fuck them.

Denver loses first two games at home against the Wolves: “These are the playoffs, these things happen. They’ll snap out of it”
Boston wins the game with an outstanding performance by Tatum in OT: “Are this bums actually contenders?”

This is such garbage lol I’m glad I stopped listening to these “experts” years ago

Crazy that McMahan is the only one talking sense here, and barely at that.
Tatum was very good until the 4th quarter, where granted he was not good at all, but played good defense especially down the stretch. He was excellent in overtime, where he literally won the game.
The offense fell apart every time he was off the floor and I don’t know what to tell anybody who couldn’t see that.
But discounting 36 / 12 /4 including game sealing buckets is idiotic.
Both Jays are just guys who when the make mistakes, tend to be loud.
But Jesus the goal post shifting when it comes to the Celtics and Tatum is just ridiculous.
Wasn’t his best game ever, but it was far from his worst, and he and Jaylen came through when it mattered the most, which is their job.

To be fair…are they wrong?

Winhurst has been confused and lost since him and LeBron seemed to distance reach other. 😜

It’s insane that a stat line of 36/12/4 is being ignored. How can anyone take people like this seriously?

That JT/Jrue Holiday turnover, I’m honestly wondering, who’s fault was it?
Jrue came up in the high HIGH post and jammed him 4 players and the ball in the same area. Jrues expected to roll, fight? That’s why Tatum through it to the empty space, Jrue was expected to be there with a step on his defender who was starting to double Tatum.
Am I wrong? Who’s to blame, Tatum or Jrues execution in that moment?

Why does anyone give a shit what they have to say?

At least I hope the C’s are listening and paying sharp attention to the narratives being spun. If there was ever a time to be motivated to say ‘fuck the media’ it’s now.

Who’s the guy with a regulation backboard for a forehead? That clown is fighting for him life to get everyone to hate on Tatum.

I saw nothing like this for Ant when he had a shit game 7 against Denver. None of these “analysts” was talking about how trash he was or how he got carried by McDaniels and KAT. For some reason they get a hard on whenever the topic is hating on Tatum or the Celtics in general.

You should also visit the pacers subreddit, quality reading material 😅 going on and on about the refs being biased towards the Celtics 🙄 Brothers is an absolute joke of an official.

This is hilarious. You can see the cognitive dissonance in real time as that dude was reading stats.

Crazy how the Celtics win a close game due to one of our stars coming through with an insane shot & people still find a way to turn it into “Tatum is a choker”

ESPN doesn’t count. They don’t actually care about the game of basketball they just mass produce these kind of super hot reactionary takes so they get posted on social media and gain traction.

Amazing how you can watch this game and say Tatum was at fault. As soon as he sits in the third quarter, the wheels fall off for the Celtics. It’s no coincidence he was a +20 in an OT winning game.

Lmao they look like they need a smoke reconsidering their whole existence especially that fat fuck windhorst love to see it

I listen to the hoop collective quite a bit but I hate listening to them talk about the Celtics. They always go on about how the Celtics lose games they should win more often than any team and how Tatum doesn’t come through in clutch time.
Then in a game where Tatum hits clutch shots and they win a game in years past they might of lost, they still act like the Celtics have done something wrong.
I don’t get it.

Hope we win the chip this year to shut them up. Then again… I’m even wondering if that will stop them from saying he got bailed out.

Tatum played so well.
Did he miss shots? Yes.
Did he take bad shots? Yes.
Did he have bad turnovers? Yes.
Do we want him to be better? Yes.
Why do they overreact to his bad stuff?
