Love that take on end-of-quarter 3s. I mean, Hartenstein proved this in the Knicks-Pacers series. He drained an end-of-half buzzer beater — a total fluke, from behind mid-court, still worth 3 points! And he ain't even a long range shooter…
THANK YOUR PRITCHARD! I've been saying the same thing. Only casual fans are being critical of Tatum when he has been impactful across the board outside of his inefficient shooting. I myself have been critical of Tatum in the past because when his offense wasn't clicking, he would be almost useless but that has been far from the case this postseason. When teams begin to adjust and key in on the other guys more and Tatum starts to go off offensively again, I don't wanna all of a sudden hear the shower of praise from the same haters.
< Tatum shoots a jumper over two defenders >
Celtics fans: What's this guy doing?? He's killing us, pass the ball!
< Tatum passes out of a double team >
Celtics fans: What's wrong with this bum?? You're a star, take the shot!
I have my own criticisms about Tatum's shot selection, but he's been a rock for this team in every facet of the game, and it's increasingly tiring listening to people moan about his points.
People want Tatum to be Anthony Edward’s. He’s not he’s Jayson Tatum appreciate him for who he is.
P Rabbit thanks for speaking out 🐰🐇
Bro we need to relax it’s a team sport. He can help with everything and that’s what he did!! Scoring is not everything when we got 6 other guys who can score. As long as he is affective in other ways and being active is all we can ask for!! Love our brother through the good and bad!! Family
Why do all these players have to answer for JTs shooting struggles lol.
Great response P 🍀
JT is awesome, he’s doing great. Now, who is the handsome reporter with the great hair.
Get em. Stay together. Keep playing TEAM BALL. Real Celtics basketball!!!
I keep saying this. There’s more to basketball than just what you see. There’s also strategy. Idk if this is what they are doing but they may know all these teams are coming in going “okay we have to guard Tatum, make sure we guard Tatum” and the C’s know this so they’re like okay let them focus on guarding Tatum while we give JB, D White, Jrue, PP or whoever the ball to score while Tatum distracts the defense. We have yet to have a game in the playoffs this year that we’ve needed JT to be the beast he is and take over the game. They’re saving that for the finals.
PP is so solid it's crazy 🤍
Hes not shooting well or scoring efficiently.. thats the standard he's held to unfortunately
its just a shooting slump he’s doing everything else at an elite level
Love this guy and JT! Time to get a chip 💪
The misleading title makes it sound like PP was complaining about JT, but he didn't. In fact, he complimented Tatum.
Jayson Tatum is in a slump. Anyone can see it
People who only glance have these kinds of criticisms, just for the sake of having a conclusion about the game. You see a lot of complaints if Hauser or Pritchard don't hit five or six three's, and if their +/- for the game was +20, as usual, somehow that's not good enough.
Media like ESPN just hates on the Celtics. When the Celtics win, the regular season doesn’t matter, and now that it’s the playoffs, nothing matters unless they win a title. They win a game by 25 points, well JT didn’t score as many points as we think he should. It’s ALWAYS something! Ignore these bums and go bring home banner 18!
The Tatum struggle is when he slows down and stalls the offense, which didn’t happen tonight. Sounds like a bunch of casuals asking the question.
At Cs don't need a player can scoring 40 point in a game cause we have 7-8 player who can score only 20-25 each . For me its more effective
Wow amazing performance by Boston Celtics and the whole team that has sacrificed so much for their team and their teammates they totally deserved this win by the way they played this game and this game one . If they keep playing like they played this series and elevating their game to adjust to their opponents they will definitely win the championship this year. And it definitely starts with winning the second round of this series Amazing and good job by the whole Celtics on the defense end and the offense end of the floor.This is what the Celtics is supposed to do if they want to keep advancing to the third and thr fourth and fifth round and when the NBA championship including beating who is awaiting them in the later rounds. This was a great night for Jaylen Brown and Derrick White who lead the Celtics this game.
Bobby how is he gonna practice buzzer beaters??
They’re just expecting a lot from JT because the other teams are ballin and game seems more entertaining overall. Celts games just seem a bit boring this yr in the playoffs due to injuries on the opponents team.
we all know JT is playing dead/ jayson possum
Love this team, got each others back and they’re gritty. Let’s go boys
This is crazy Tatum is getting more criticism now than last year when the Celtics were down to the Heat 0-3. Now they are 5-1 in this years playoffs it just does not make sense. If we want to complain about things complain about the Red Sox or that the bruins won't win another game this playoffs
