  1. Tatum right. Yall overreact everytime they lose a game 😂. When they go to Finals y’all gon be back on the bandwagon 😂. Y’all acting they down 3-1 or something 😂.

  2. The whole Ime thing is such a garbage take. Do these people forget in 2022 the Celtics lost 6 games at home during that run? Give me a break. It's on the players.

  3. Tired of these fixed games . All about ticket sales and politics between owners and bets.. Just cut the playoffs short.. I can't hardly watch this no more😑😶

  4. Boston fans still arguing that he needs time to develop. He's only 19 ffs 🤡 they will never be a champion with Mr. 300M and Mr. 19yrold ever, they have no heart and the grit to be called a champion lololol stop with the media spotlight

  5. Our problem is the coach. He wants brown to shoot every shot in the first. Tatum every shot in the last. Never lets him heat up early. Never runs a play for his superstar. It’s wild. Plays him with the second unit as a pg even with pp out there. It’s a nightmare watching this coaching.

  6. Tatum been overrated for years. Inconsistent. Never turns up in big games. He’s just a Brandon Ingram on a decent team

  7. Jayson just might not be the ideal leader on a championship team. Ant, Brunson, Luka all have more dawg than him among the young players.

  8. Tatum talking about he can't wait to get to NBA Finals. He doesn't fear anybody in the East healthy or not because they pose no threat. Wait until the finals

  9. Will they ever talk about the Cavs when it’s giving them praise??? Not by putting down the other team or by just ignoring them in entirety… 🙄

  10. Some guys not that dude no matter how much ESPN try to hype them. Jayson Tatum is not that guy.

  11. The media saying the celtics have "championship pedigree" etc. They haven't done jacksquat yet. And until proven otherwise the word championship and celtics can't be associated…yet

  12. What does the "A" in his name stand for? Annoying? Awful? Atrocious? Arrogant? Antagonistic? What an egotistical blowhard. Easily the worst sports commentator out there.

  13. This is hilarious. Tatum said exactly how it is with the media and public and ppl getting defensive. It’s 1 loss in the series. Y’all acted the same way with the Heat loss in game 2. Yes Tatum hasn’t been great scoring the ball. But he leads the Celtics in everything except scoring. The insinuation that he’s playing poorly is just not true or is scoring the only measure of success. If that’s the case let’s take Dennis Rodman, Dikembe Mutombo, and others out of the hall of fame. Tatum doesn’t need to score 30 or 40. He doesn’t. They got to 60+ wins playing team basketball and feeding the hot hand.

  14. Tatum having a few bad weeks and all of a sudden he’s washed. Keep that same energy when he’s holding up that finals MVP trophy 😤

  15. They always go on the coaches…nah, this is on the players. 29 points is on the players.
    Their identity is 3 pointers…when they go in, it’s great. When they don’t, this happens

  16. This happens every year, Tatum is just not that guy… he is a Beta male and folds under pressure. History does not lie.

  17. Making 3’s sets up their entire offense because it forces defenders to push up and put more emphasis on the three-point line which thus, cause miss-matches and spacing to drive it to the basket. They use three’s like a fighter uses a jab to set up their combos. It’s just weird man

  18. Can’t say nothing bad about JB, he is the leading Scorer in the playoffs for the Celtics

  19. Bro said no one called them a superteam. Remember that, no ones allowed to criticize Tatum for being on a superteam anymore because no one ever said he was.

  20. Remind me again how Udoka's identity helped them in the finals when they were up 2 – 1 and ended up losing 3 straight by double digits, with 2 of those 3 at home.

  21. We know who the Celtics are. Every year and practically every series Jason Tatum will have at least one game where he doesn't show up, and in another game the Celtics either have a let down or play hero ball. If they meet the Timberwolves in the finals, they'll get swept.
