Doesn’t even need to fix his fg%, that’s just a luxury at this point. He’s evolved his play so much that he wins games for us even when shooting poorly. Something that he couldn’t do earlier in his career. Champion player, his playmaking has gone to a whole new level.


Yeah his assists are not flashy dimes for the dunks, but a lot of recognizing double teams n pass to open Three pointers which Celtics whole team knock it down in high volumes.

In the past Tatum would continue to brick threes n layups n not see open man. Now he learned to trust his great teammates, next year He’s gonna improve more and Celtics gonna get 1st seed again.

Hordford and PorKzingis are the Key! Gotta keep them healthy n playable in the playoffs contributing 25-30 mins a game.

"Doesn't need to fix his fg%. That's just a luxury at this point" as the man leads the team in shot attempts and shoots like 35% in the finals. Guy was dead last on his team in TS% among rotation players in the finals. Awful in offensive and defensive rating in the finals as well. You've gotta be drunk at this point to be spewing this nonsense.

This guy doesn't even sniff a championship on any other team playing like that, or in any other season when they'd see normal competition. You're so delusional 😭

Most overrated player in the NBA label for a reason. Guy deserves all the hate he's getting. Cringe as fuck AND a bus rider. Jalen Brown is MVP for a reason.

Yep definitely the key to winning the championship. Absorbing all the defensive focus, and making his teammates better with his high level playmaking

Couldn’t have won the the championship without him

"Absorbing all the defensive focus"

Yeah, Mavs were so worried about a guy who shoots 35% in the finals finals with a 49% TS.

Rudy Gay 2.0
Maybe Melo 2.0 at best? If Melo had a team to carry like Taters did

Looked like they cared a little bit by having DJJ, they’re only good defender, glued to him the entire series, and then collapsed their whole defense on Tatum any time he entered the paint, while everyone else on the Celtics had guys like Luka, Kyrie, Washington guarding them

If they really didn’t care, then why not put more defensive focus on the 4 or 5 Celtics players who are better than Tatum? Seems like poor coaching by Kidd.

Let's not forget this guy kimmy said Smart is better than Jrue.

Guy missed on all accounts on his own team. He said Tatum is better than Brown, he said Smart is better than Jrue. Swinging and missing left and right per usual.

Jrue went ahead and got em a ring. Something Smart couldn't do.

Smart had to go against a top 10 player of all time
Jrue had to go against a fat white euro

While I agree Jrue is better than Smart
Let's take into account who they had to play against
