    I love jimmy but people are starting to overrate him 😭😭he’s not better then Tatum it’s close but no Tatum is definitely better

  5. D. Bonner

    I think the player some people arent mentioning is Jaylen Brown. He's the one capable of changing this series in favor of Boston.

  6. Keeping It Real

    Broussard ignoring the ankle injury is one thing. Ignoring the way the Knicks played him is a whole other discussion. Did he even watch the series? Jimmy was getting double and triple team nearly every time he touched the ball. Tibbs game plan was to take the ball out of jimmy’s hand and force the other guys to beat them. Its hard to score when you’re constantly being double and triple teamed, unless you choose to jack up a bunch of terrible shots which Jimmy doesn’t do. Instead he got his teammates involved and they were able to win off of that. Jimmy is not gonna be dealing with that in this series cause that’s not how the Celtics play defense.

    Personally I'm looking forward to a Denver Nuggets vs Miami Heat NBA finals this year, just saying 🤗

  14. TIM Fwaygo

    Jimmy bad games are 25-5-6 😂😂 and we still beat the knicks game 6 jimmy didn't play well

  15. Mike Jones

    Broussard clearly doesn’t understand Jimmy’s game. Jimmy prefers to get his teammates involved. Jimmy only ascends to that level when his team needs him to. Miami had control of the entire Knicks series so there was no need to go nuclear.

  20. Deal Dough

    In the bubble the Lakers won the West and the Heat won the East. This year I feel like it's going to be the opposite.

  21. J&W

    Doesn’t Jimmy B need to go off offensively for his team to advance most of the time? Tatum is much younger and more options offensively around him. Doesn’t surprise me he doesn’t need to go for 40+

  23. G Q

    Tatum has more talent but Jimmy has more toughness I'll take Jimmy over Tatum but I got the Celtics in 6

  26. MoneyMarv

    not only was jimmy injured against the knicks, but also thibs whole gameplan was to get the ball out of jimmys hands. these “analysts” don’t even watch the games smh

  28. John Jones

    Anybody who was saying the bubble season was a fluke is looking stupid right now. These are the same 4 teams from the bubble. The bubble counted dummies

  29. sean isabel

    Just like last series, everyone was on Embiid's nuts and Philly's nuts. Tatum and the Celtics are gonna show out and dominate this series!! Go Celtics!!

  32. M F

    Jimmy has an ankle injury so that’s why he hadn’t scored 30 against the Knicks.

  33. c0w g0es m00

    Was philly really a better defensive team than new york? I thought defense was thibs bread and butter

  34. Kyle Anglin

    Broussard just left out that Jimmy was injured in the Knicks series with bad ankle sprain. Jimmy is better than Jayson Tatum not by much but he is better.

  35. ParablePreacher

    People act like Jimmy just disappeared last seres. Jimmy elevates to what his team needs him to be. Like in the series against the bucks, he needed to score to keep them in the games. In the series against the Knicks he needed to make sure his teammates were involved, and really facilitate/play defense! I think this series against the Celtics he will need to score more. Which he will do!

  43. Samuel Gaona

    Jimmy was playing on a hobbled leg for most of the series last year and still put up identical numbers as Tatum with less help, this year he was playing on one leg again against the Knicks and put up similar numbers to Tatum in the second round and completely embarrassed the Bucks and scored 56 a post season high this year, with all due respect Jimmy Buckets is the best player in this series
