what players an amazing team overall
Like I've been saying for a while Tatum and Brown should play their entire careers together in BOS 😤.
SIXERS IN 4 U BANDWAGON CELTICS FANS WILL SEE🤡
great series, good luck phily and boston
Tatum
First
Tatum and brown really step up when it really matters the most with some tuff shots ☘️☘️☘️🔥🔥
Gonna be tough getting past Philly, especially with how often Boston lapses during games.
This is the dynamic duo I want to see all playoffs season
❤❤❤
Refs tried really hard to give hawks the game for a game 7 but celtics wasn't playing around tonight
This is the dynamic duo we’ve seen all last year in the playoffs , literally this is what every sports analyst or ESPN nut job thought they couldn’t play well together ?
This is unfinished business for the Boston Celtics 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Best Duo of the NBA but not All Time.MJ and Scottie number 1.
Kobe and Shaq number 2.
Steph and Klay number 3.
Lebron and Dwade number 4.
Tatum and Brown is just number 5.
The aggressiveness in the last four minutes is what we need all postseason. Beast mode needs to be ON baby!
What a close out Celtics going back to the finals
Jaylen Brown is my favorite NBA player
How do you beat Tatum and Batman like come on
My family in the Philippines loves the Celtics to be the nba champion
Excellent. Let's go, Celtics
Damn celtics struggled against hawks so bad lol
I hope they work Philly and take them in 5
Tatum and Brown is better and younger than some other duo's in the league. Namely:
Kawhi and PG13
Derozan and Lavine
76ers in 6
Aye I like that FANGA Roll Tatum😅
Batman and Robin was on it tonight😮
If Tatum and Brown are both on fire to close out games consistently through the playoffs, Boston is going to be a tough out
Soon Trae is going to be a nobody like deron Williams and westbrick
they went off
They're literally doing whatever the hell they want to do and it's working
jayson tatum vs joel embiid great matchup 😄👏
Very beautiful ☺👍
