Tatum and jimmy stressed me out the whole game. Tatum disappeared in the 2nd half and jimmy was a ghost till the last 2 mins, they easily took 4 years off my life lol
I'VE WATCH THIS ON TV BOSSSSSSSSSTTTOOOOOOOOONNN☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
You box out white, you win the game. Think about that for a second.
Don't let this 31 points fool you, he was missing shots all night, specially threes. If the Celtics want to make history Tatum and Brown has to play great and hit shots, specially now that they have been saved by White of all Celtics players.
Heat "Overrated team"
2011-2012 – Only legit finals win as a team in history
2012-2013 – Bailed in both Pacers series and Spurs series by refs and maybe Ray Allen. Another undeserving ring.
2013-2014 – Lost to Spurs in finals (LeFraud locked up by washed up Tim Duncan) (All 4 losses in series were by 15+ points LMAO)
2014-2015 – All the team talent leaves because they lost finals LOL quitters
2015-2016 – Lost to Raptors (Shouldn't have even made it past round 1 got bailed against Hornets)
2016-2017 – Continuing to be bums
2017-2018 – Lost to EmFlop in 1st round (imagine losing to a flop professional)
2018-2019 – Good enough talent to make 2nd round but instead they go 39-43 lmfao
2019-2020 – Lost to LeFraud in finals (revenge for being bums in those years he was with you guys) (all the Heat fans said "Jimmy Butler will carry the team to a championship" LOL you guys wish a 1 man team is enough)
2020-2021 – Lost to Bucks in 1st round (Shows that it was mickey mouse run to finals in 2019 season)
2021-2022 – Carried by Jimmy Butler but sadly Butler wasn't enough to beat Boston (1 man Heat team isn't enough)
2022-2023 – HALL OF FAME CHOKERS, FIRST TEAM TO GET REVERSE SWEPT LMFAO (THEY CALLED BUTLER MJ'S SON, LOL)

Nice Scoring Bro but this is Derrick White's Moment.
WE DONT CARE ABOUT TATUM GIVE US D WHITE
Unreal
Crazy game….
Butler is a joke.
Miami blows and 1 game from becoming the only team to blow a 3-0 deficit 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Tatum : I'm Son Of Lebron
Most overrated player in nba history shouldve been swept but nba is script took over
Ref baiting bitc$
Derrick white and marcus smart saved this bum carrier
Derrick White was the hero in this game
He was ass why does he have his own highlights video LMAO
shot shouldn't have even counted broo
What ever happens in game 7, it's obvious the C's are so better team
White saved Tatum's legacy. He was a no show in the 2nd half.
Tatum disappeared and bricked a lot of 3's in 2nd half. Thanks to D.White saving the Celtics.
Ngl I wanted Jimmy to get his first ring but I have dreamed ALL MY LIFE to see a 0-3 comeback in the NBA! Anyways, it doesn’t matter if Heat or Celtics gets to the finals, any of them are gonna get destroyed and swept by the Nuggets.
Lotta celtics haters in the comments
Butler Video Poinst ?????????
Ghost Tatum leaving us in the second half and thank you white for being clutch
Absolutely cooked jimmy in the first half, joe needs to make sure tatum keeps attacking though because he didnt even have a shot attempt in the 3rd quater which cooled him off
The Heat shot 30% from two point range over the course of the game—Ouch!
Tatum is good but he never gets anything done in the clutch. (From a Celtics Fan)
NOOO MIAMI!!! THEY SOLD BECAUSE SOMEONE DIDN'T BOX OUT?????? LMAO!!! THEY ARE ABOUT TO MAKE HISTORY! LOL 🤣🤣😂 COME CHECK OUT MY REACTION TO THIS GAME! I'M STILL CRYING 🤣🤣🤣

Imagine losing a 3-0 lead
I love how they showcase Tatum, who was virtually invisible when it counted and was bailed out with some phantom fouls.
Tatum is +3 in game 6. Give him some credit, NBA fans.
mvp
Damn nba if you’re gonna post Tatum at least post brown damn smh
The Miami Heat will be on the wrong end of NBA history soon
Tatum is one of my favourites, great game! ❤
They gave Jason Tatum a phantom rebound!!!! Blew up my ticket!!! That's some bull####
Butler cant guard tatum one on one..thats the fact😂
8-22 0-8 from 3 overrated
Defense plus rebounding plus passing. All you people see are 3 point shots. It’s so many other things you need to do to win not just shoot 3s. What did jimmy do against JT ? Y’all keep talking about 3s
Jason Tatum cooked everybody. Period. That's what I call road rage. Straight road rage!!!
Its actually surprising if Tatum makes a 3
