JT THE BEST NBA PLAYER
KING TATUM
Go Tatum
Go Tatum and Boston 😊
☘️☘️
So happy for JT… Going through that injury is tough and the fact that he’s back so soon healed. Good luck the rest of the way… Another championship is waiting.☘️☘️☘️✅
We are better than that ( stop the foolish idiotic chatter about if a hot dogs a sandwich or not , it’s obvious not ) we have all this great sports to talk about in Boston and this is getting unnecessary time, it’s an obvious filler a wasteful topic to just consume time
Hopefully Jayson continues to do the things that he learned watching from the bench for most of the year with the Coaches showing him what the Celtics can do to improve. Continue to be great and be the best teammate possible to help win games.
5:20 Yay! Abby!
Don't forget about Paul George, Kelly Oubre and VJ Edgecomb. Yes , Maxey is their top scorer but when the Sixers won those 2 games, it was VJ and Kelly who stepped up to give the Sixers the wins with their play. Please do not give any open looks. Lock down 🔒 everyone. Let's go, Celtics! ☘️
15:50 A hotdog 🌭 is NOT a sandwich.
WE ARE SO BACK WITH JT!! 💯🔥
Yesssssssss, ABBY! Game 82 was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Garzilla and the Mullet + Ron Harper JR…let’s gooooo!
JT Kobe Bryant would be very proud you!💛💙💚☘️#19
JT its so good to have you back an look from the sidelines an get that mojo back Lets go Celtics ❤❤
But at the same time it takes the whole Celtics team to win a game
Respectfully, a hotdog is not a sandwich. I understand the argument (as presented) but their definition depends on a particular type of bread.
So transparent recently ☘️🫡 agent 0
