  1. Tatum played like a 2nd or 3rd option in a superteam celtics and he getting credit. Luka carried a 5th seed dallas with a weak supporting cast to the finals and gets crucified. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

  2. Tell me another harder 17 year old rapper…………………………. U CANT πŸ—£οΈπŸ”₯πŸ˜‚

  3. Saying Jayson Tatu had 10 great plays is overstating his inconsistent and mediocre performance. He should be traded. He turned the ball over a lot and didn't make appreciable offensive output. He is costing his team dearly for all of the tantrums he throws on the court.

  4. Jayson Tatum's clutch plays were everything! πŸ€πŸ”₯ Such a star in the NBA Finals! Who else was on the edge of their seat watching his epic moments?

  5. For me, Jayson had a very good season, I liked the way he plays and he is a very good player. Boston Celtics forever. πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€

  6. Im tired of yall disrespecting jaylen brown. Yall keep pushing tatum face everywhere how the fuck does he get a compilation before the finals mvp. Make it make sense.
