FIRST THINGS FIRST | Nick confirm Jayson Tatum make the Boston Celtics a force to be recknoed with
Louisiana a Caldwell dunks here on his own teammate but still counts not enough however the Lamar Cardinals win this one by five points if you stayed up we’re at Red’s training camp I’ve never seen this drill before got a stuffed animal on his string wow and it’s a good catch oh
Red’s opening day oh so practice tagging people out yes that’s smart yeah it’s pretty good uh weird wow we’re going back to the allame this is strange one of the worst shots oh wow man East took a 10489 lead at the break this is one of those vintage
You’re rewarding the result not the decision cuz if he made it we’d say it was awesome Dame won Le won MVP of the game for similar shots he just happened to make them no yes yes a special goodbye wonderful to PA of Famer Matthew Slater who is retiring from really America’s
Team and team of the century uh three Super Bowls 10 Pro bowls five all pros and all time a great Patriots he’ll be an interesting Hall of Fame case bro he will he because the 10 Pro bowls and the five First Team all Pros making intering you know what helps belich and Brady
Will be very adamant like yeah and me oh yeah and you of course so you haven’t helped adelan yet yet being you been pushing Adan well I don’t know he’s got the third most playoff receiving Travis Kel has number one we got to just get him into Canon early uh during allar
Break Tatum was asked about individual Awards and posited a theory on why despite leading the first place Celtics he’s on the outskirts of the MVP discussion D listen would I love to win yes but you know apparently us losing in the finals 2 years ago affects you know what people
Think of me now so uh I guess I got some ground to make up but you know everybody who has a vote you know they vote the CR criteria is different you know everybody thinks definitely uh right wrong or indifferent it is what it is so you
Can’t tell people what they what they should look for when they vote but uh you know it’s the beauty of it okay uh here are the odds for MVP Joker SGA Giannis Luca and Tatum at 5 plus 2900 yeah so Nick your reaction to yeah Tatum
So I don’t have a vote Brew does um but if I did Tatum’s finals performance would have no bearing on it the reason that I would have up to this point have not voted for him for MVP and not this year is cuz he’s never been MVP and he’s
Never been an MVP caliber player he’s been one tick below and NBA history is littered with Hall of Fame wings that were just never quite that caliber gerin Dominic Drexler Tac Vince uh this era Paul George I don’t I think Tatum’s better than Paul George but p Paul
George First Team all NBA Devin Booker there there are guys that are all NBA perennial all NBA guys that are awesome players building Hall of Fame resumes the that list never won a championship Taya might but they weren’t ever the MVP here’s the thing about the MVP in the NBA
Brew there’s not a lot of one-time MVPs to weird League 68 MVPs given out only 20 onetime MVPs last 45 years 32 of the MVPs were repeats 13 onetime MVPs so it’s not only that it’s hard win MVP most MVPs are so good they win a bunch
Of them which is why it’s so hard to win him so it’s not about holding his postseason he’s been a good postseason performer he’s just not been MVP caliber ever in his career and to your point it’s interesting because Shaq and Kobe are one time we all know they could easily won
Multiple on so that just underscores your point even more I am a voter I don’t excuse me hold Jason Tatum’s performance in the finals against him the reason he said it you saw what he say he said apparently because Brian windhorse went on NBA today and said
That people some of the voters May hold that against him so that’s what he’s responding to cuz appar it’s not his thought he’s like oh apparently this is out there so cuz here’s the proof LeBron James when he went to the finals in 20 2007 had never won an MVP award his
Numbers are virtually identical to what Jason tat and they were both similar age I think LeBron was 22 tayum was 23 both of them averaged 22 points Tatum 21 A2 LeBron shot 35% T Tatum 36% both seven assist seven rebound rebounds LeBron had 23 turnovers in four games remember everybody including Wilds was
Killing Tatum for the turnovers he had 23 he had 23 and six games in the finals so LeBron was turning it over even more obviously nobody held that against him and that’s because of your point Tatum as great as he is and he is great he is
A legitimate Superstar he is a tick below Luca joic Giannis and MB now the interesting one is SGA him being second and I get it cuz MB is now hurt he’s out of it but I will say this if fga had been to the finals or deep in the playoffs and
Struggled he might not be second because I don’t know I love S I don’t know if he’s yet in a different class than T I agree with you entirely and he’s right now getting the benefit of the doubt because he’s never even been in the playoffs do is there anything to this
List Joker SJ Giannis Luca Tatum T’s like my team’s in first place I know it’s in an it’s more of an NFL argum I hate the logic of Best Player best team yeah okay what what are the what are the Mavs in are the Mavs in like Luca should not like Lucas seventh
I think Lucas six or seven in my opinion Lucas if record had nothing to do with it Luca should be the overwhelming favorite right because it does he gets ding a ton and he’s in fourth but don’t you think it should of course it should seventh the Mavs are in seventh place
And and by the way they seven he’s not going to win it but I if just last 40 years the onetime MVPs and tell me if you think Tatum is anywhere close to these players Barkley dream Admiral Shaq AI Garnett Durk Kobe D Rose weird one KD
Rush Harden embiid no I said weird one because he then got hurt so those are the onetime MVPs last 40 years everyone else is repeat and so that it’s just hard it’s a hard award to win man it’s not you’re not being persecuted if you’re not League’s MVP he’s going to
Have to win more some championships um that’s playing you know spectacular basketball and also you know are being you know great off the floor as well but I don’t think you just you just say okay well this guy is the next person to be the face of anything I just
You have to just let it happen organically Fair he was the chosen one well yeah it didn’t happen organically with LeBron I mean that’s one of the great things about LeBron is he lived up to the height exactly and then some Steph it clearly happened organic organically you
Talk about oh his dad was in no it happened organically Wade who you wasn’t really a face of the league but obviously was a top three four player it happened organically with can I add another one I would argue would happened organically with Kobe I agree Kobe was
The what the 13th pick of the draft like the he wasn’t as hyped as Garnett or Shaq it was a put on him and Shaq eventually I shouldn’t say eventually Shaq was pretty amazing immediately but Shaq lived up to it Kobe was traded for Vlad devot on draft day and and turned
Himself into that caliber of play Jerry West like I could see it like he gets credit for that but go ahead sorry face of the NBA next all right um I’m saying this with my chest oh 10 toes down feels good to do this it’s been a while since
I’ve been able to do this cuz my toes you do off in the playoffs regular season I was down and with my base turned up to 10 Victor whim Bama now I get it you oh yeah of course that dude is awesome 20 points 10 rebounds leading the league
With 3.2 blocks a game in 28 minutes I gotta be honest I’m I’m a bit upset with pop and him for playing him only 28 minutes hopefully that’s going to rise he’s one of two players I think averaging 20 points a game in less than 30 minutes it’s ridiculous he’s ready to
Play but he can do everything he’s nut meing dudes out there and obviously you’re seeing highlights here but obviously you’re going to have to win to be the face of the league but I think you know this summer I think their goal will be to get him a point guard get him
A point guard and I think can I ask you a question about what you just said you said you have to win you don’t have to win a championship to be the face of the league you can be the let me put it like this you have to eventually but you can
Be the face well before you win a championship you just have to got to be pretty decent you have to be in the postseason consistently playing in those games so I agree and that so I got wimy I’m going to throw out one more and I
Think this will surprise you but I think you both agree of an American player cuz obviously when from France if you picked Luca or joic or Giannis or NB

Tatum is right though they keep moving the goal post for him but Embiid who chokes in the playoffs can win it Tatum has showed greatness since his rookie year yet because he hasn't won yet ppl tend to hold that against him yet Luka who ain't won nothing or made a deep playoff run gets the benefit of the doubt!!
I love it 😂😂😂 soo Tatum has to win championship to win MVP but Embid Won mvp last year and can never get past the second round makes sense got it
If you are finishing in top 5 in mvp votes , you are MVP caliber player
The goal post is always moved for Tatum for everything. The guy literally been a top 5 candidate 2 yrs in a row. How can u do that and NOT be a MVP caliber player?
Bro…Tatum is 25 😂😂😂 has been to the conference finals all but ONE year, in his 6 year career, AND has been then best player on each one of those teams. Most points in a game 7 ever, has finished top 4 in MVP Voting 3 Times, All NBA, best player on the best team.
What are we talking about 😂
Bro HOW IS HE NOT MVP CALIBER his resume is better than every one on the list this stuff is wild the goal post get moved every damn year, what has Luka done or SGA
Tatum will be the face of the NBA. Time will tell 🤙🏽
Embiid never get past the 2nd round and yet these fools give him a pass
🐂
Tatum needs more ppg and apg to get there
Jason Tatum doesn't have that IT factor. I know he's good but sooo Boring. He's boring to watch. I'd rather watch MVP Derrick Rose.
The hate for Tatum is ridiculous!! Tatum is better than Fluka just on the fact that Fluka complains after ever call!
Love Bru but he said “I’ve never liked the best player best team thing” then proceeded to say record should matter😐 JT gets graded on a different scale. If any of these other guys had made 5 conference finals and a finals appearance they’d already be in the HOF
