Tatum is Paul George east

Great take

paul george without the injuries?

[@naklovesjesus3204]

🤨 That Celtics doesn't have that killa instinct needed to devour the chip.

[@logicallgaming]

Luka after game 1: "Its doesnt matter, we lost" Tatum: "its like we arent allowed to lose" The mentality of these two players are clearly different.

[@daddymike57]

It’s very annoying from Tatum because it almost seems like he’s regressing each year in the playoffs. He had that dog up until he faced the warriors and it just seems like he hasn’t been the same in the playoffs since that finals even though he had 51 in a game 7

[@kaysheye7784]

it's ok for Tatum to have low scoring output especially in the early rounds because the Celtics are comfortably winning games, but it may not be enough in the ECF or Finals

[@daddymike57]

@@kaysheye7784 I agree, and you gotta get the other guys going with no porzingus, but as the leader he needs to know when the other team is getting momentum and stop those runs, whether it’s lockdown defense or demanding the ball and running the offense because he is their most talented player. He can’t just stand there and let white and brown jack up threes unless they’re in rhythm.

[@chriscote601]

That one game 7 he had it, but as a die hard, true Celtics fan i agree he needs what ant edwards got. He need to want it and tbh i cant tell if he wants it, if jaylen want it, i can tell derrick wants it tho

[@CoachRJ334]

You'll see a huge regress once he signs for 300mil

No its not 😂 hes folded several times when he's needed too including when tatum got hurt last playoffs

[@wpop32]

Of course you’re not gonna win every game but you shouldn’t lose in the manner that the Celtics did. Watching the game it looked like they gave up on the game, no effort.

[@leetraviusmckay314]

"u gon stand on business or u gon fold like clean sheets?" 😂

why is tatum never pissed off never hyped never full of fire and on a mission dude just has no fight in him talent sure but no fight no killer instinct

[@dacyndaquil]

No one expects you to go 16-0 ffs no one expects you as the best record in the NBA to lose by 20! At home! You had two blowout losses to inferior teams and you’re supposed to be the better and more experienced team!

[@adamwillis908]

and they proceeded to gentlemen's sweep the first team, if it happens again will you be back here to praise them, or do you only come out of the woodwork to doom after a rare loss?

[@michaelhession2105]

This isn't on Mazzulla. This is the players themselves. They've been playing down to their competition for decades if you exclude 2008.

[@PWCDN]

You cannot tell me Brad Stevens can't advise on coaching. You think Pat Riley just plays executive? These coach turn execs are mentors to the coach, they CHOSE the coach.

[@antonioyoung2977]

That's why I don't mess with Tatum. He will never be the best his mentality is too passive. Ain't no killer in their. More like just a front runner.

[@7Kwadwo]

Mazulla has spoiled him! He is a bad coach with good players. Poor coaching

[@opesijuwade13]

Perk common bro You don't gotta lie man 😭 They have been called a superteam and rightfully so

​@@energyexchange7709 2 all stars that are borderline superstars and 2 guys that would be a star on any other team as well as top defensive players, that sure sounds like a super team. Maybe not the same as a kd, booker, Beal team but doesn't mean it's not a super team

[@Rajneeeeesh]

Calm down, Lads! If Tatum steps up, they are cleaning out the rest of the remaining teams.

[@Saxandfifths]

Lol maybe in the East, and also, that's a biiiiig "IF". We live in reality.

[@adamwillis908]

​@@SaxandfifthsIt's not really that big of an if, it'd be more surprising if Boston doesn't come out of the East than it would be if they do. Small if.

[@Saxandfifths]

@@adamwillis908 that's why I asked whether you're referring to the Conference or League entirely. Boston SHOULD be automatic to come out the East because they are supposedly the better team, easily. The problem is they always have issues that keep them from consistently playing like it in the postseason.... Furthermore, it's a hilariously huge "if" if you're referring to the entire league. 🤣

[@Mwolves25]

If Allen was playing we would score 100 points in the paint.

[@theradfactor9104]

Tatum is getting worse by the season. Brown is now the key player for the Celtics.

I mean its easy to do. We want them to be dogs and win, but they show glaring flaws. They should've won at least 1 chip by now

[@aboogeytheboss5043]

WHY CANT MY MAVS GET A SEGMENT ESPN‼️

[@chasechase24]

upsetting as a celtics fan. they need to win by 20 in game 3

[@klaystaccs]

It’s not that people are waiting for them to lose a game to say something negative. The problem is whenever they do lose, it’s by huge margins. Missing 16 consecutive 3pointers is concerning.

[@djphenom5430]

[@montezmahone5991]

It's the coach. The players get some blame but overall the problem is the coach.

[@PWCDN]

so Brad Steven's couldn't advise? Might as well get rid of him too. Brad Stevens is literally a free coach. What he making trades and scouting right now personally and not watching the games? You think Pat Riley doesn't have business dinners with Spo to go over coaching?

[@bxbuga]

just reading body language, Mitchell is out for blood, need to prove himself to redeem his time in Utah. Tatum is too comfortable. I hope Mitchell stays a killer and produce an upset. I'm loving Donovan Mitchell right now.

[@MaximusDecimusMeridius23]

CELTICS dont' have any super stars how are they a super team

[@tysgm8591]

A team with Tatum and brown who are both all stars and borderline superstars. Porzingis and holiday are also all star caliber players especially if they were on a different team. That's as super as you can get outside of teams like phoenix

They are definitely a super team only reason no one won awards was cause they all played like a team no one was better than the other

The only reason they won 60+ games is because the whole east teams were injured. Lets see if they win 60+ games again next year when the east is healthy.

Tatum is overrated and I just don't see the superstar player so many other people see in Tatum. He's PG13 with good PR. I still think Boston beats the Cavs in 6 games. If the Cavs want to win Mitchell has go off like he did in game 2 and the Cavs have to take advantage of KP being out and Mobley and Allen (hope he’s healthy) both have to use their size and hopefully Wade is back healthy
