    Russell, Bird, Havlicek, Pierce? Maybe McHale or Cousy instead of Pierce?

    It’ll take some rings for sure. Not the easiest Rushmore to crack

    But Kobe said, I just have to fake it till the fans say I made it

    Honestly he’s already at a MVP level, which Pierce never reached. Ability wise he’s at the level of Tracy Mcgrady, who was always viewed as better than PP.

    Just needs 1 ring with an epic playoff run to cement himself.

  4. Don’t know why people act like it’s such a huge task. Rings aside, he’s already the third best player in our history. 4th if you count Garnett, but he was at his best with the Timberwolves

  5. snowlarbear

    a lot of work to do to catch Antoine Walker

  6. hot-sauce-950

    At least 3 rings to even get into the convo right?

  7. rumblegod

    Celtics and Boston don’t deserve it for known reasons lol. Hope he leaves 🤣

  8. frozen2665

    He fucking could honestly. Got a LOT of work to do obviously, but I could see it

  9. coffeeINJECTION

    Sorry Rushmore is full. Too many greats already.

    I hope he reaches it, he’s a 1 of a kind talent.

    Russell, Bird, Havlicek, Cousy… dream big, JT!

    If Paul The Pierced is not in their mt rushmore why should The Taint be?

  13. theseustheminotaur

    Good goal to have but so hard to do. I could see pierce being supplanted but Bird, Russell, and Havlicek feel immovable

  14. Everyone wants Tatum to finally get that title with the Celtics. Let’s hope that the adjustments made this summer allow the Celtics to go and get this grail.

    He can do it for sure. If he stays on his current trajectory his individual accolades will get him above Pierce as the best Celtic since Bird.

    If he gets 1 ring that’ll tie him with Pierce on that end. Multiple rings and he’s a lock. Still a lot of work to do but he has time and talent on his side.

  16. Suicycho69

    You’re about 14 rings short but good luck!

  17. Of course Celtics fans in this thread want majority white players on their mt Rushmore. Poor pierce, an LA native, wasting his career on such a garbage an unappreciative franchise. Gave them their only ring in recent memory and put below players only modern Celtics fans grandfathers saw play. Also Tatum isn’t winning shit. Tatum and browns albatross contract will keep this franchise losing for awhile. Imagine being fan of franchise with all these banners that might as well be fictional because no one was alive to see them!
