  1. I guess the back to back 30 point, 10 rebound games against the Cavs didn’t matter to Perk either. *shrugs* the goalposts will just continue to move in this type of discourse.

    Tatum could drop 50 and people will say he shoulda dropped 60, people gotta realize the goalsposts will always move with tatum in the media. If he wins 1 ring it’ll be he can’t win 2 etc.

    Tatum literally did something only LeBron has done yet apparently he’s not a number 1 ‘ow

  4. General_Tsos_Burrito

    Perk seems intent on pissing off the one fanbase that has good memories of his playing days

  5. Well, for sure if Tyrese is out, this series is over. I don’t care that much about the multiple game Jason thing, so much as both and he and Brown are on this team.

    I will happily take a bye to the finals. We still have to beat one really good team to finish the job. No shame in that. Banners fly forever.

    My opinion is that the biggest problem with Tatum is being compared to his hero Kobe.

    He’s not Kobe, not even really close. At least in terms of just saying “fuck all y’all, I’m taking every shot and more will go in than not.” Tatum does not have Kobe’s handle or ability to volume score. Or maybe he does, but it certainly isn’t his game in 2024.

    But that’s ok. Tatum is better at everything else. People should look at him more like Tim Duncan or Kevin Durant (Durant also has a bigger bag than Tatum but I think they are similar), or closer to home, peak Paul Pierce. (though Tatum will be better than Pierce)

    Now talk about the injury bug we’ve had in years past. Bet they won’t mention that

  9. mamba-pear

    Shouldn’t you guys be happy they’re always moving the goalpost?

    Just win the whole thing multiple times. That’ll shut the haters up real fast.

    Why is it bad that the Jays are both the man? It’s better to have a duo. Less pressure. Partners. None of this “who’s Batman and who’s robin”? BS

    We got Hall and Oates, Simon and Garfunkel, the white stripes, OutKast, daft punk etc etc

    “Jayson Tatum is the worst player in the league”

    – Perk’s response, probably

  12. HueyLewisFan1

    Dude I hate that fat fuck Perkins sm. Shitty center. Shittier analyst.

  13. garythegoat72

    Isn’t this the dude who said we didn’t have a chance if the nuggets make the finals?

  14. IF we win a championship this year I feel like every former player should be allowed to participate in the celebration/ parade EXCEPT perk

  15. Im happy scored in the end but was pissed that he gave up on D because his fall away jumpers weren’t hitting.

    Great win, solid stat line for Tatum in the end but one of his worst defensive performances all year.

  16. UtahUtopia

    I love Tatum and I’m tired of people dumping on him.

    And I’m glad Brown is really proving the doubters wrong.

    We need them both for an NBA TITLE!

  17. Mikeyseventyfive

    It pisses us off, could you imagine Tatum hearing this shit and then having to be nice to all these guys of you ever see them.

    Zach Lowe is whom KOC thinks he is. Low-key, Zach has never really stopped being a Celtics fan, unlike KOC who just says dumb shit about Boston these days (which sure get yourself paid, whatever) — never forget that he has tried to trade JB around 1,049 times now — so that he ups his credit with the NBA mob.

  19. jonesy289

    Yeah cause he didn’t have 36/12/4 at +20 in game one. The media narrative of Jt is bad needs to stop
