Except Tatum didn’t choke. He was clearly the best player in the eastern playoffs, by quite a significant margin.

Top 5 mvp in the previous 2 seasons, all-nba first team the previous 2 seasons. Tell me, what else could he do to be top 5?


Best player in the Eastern playoffs? LOL

He literally disappeared and didn't score a single bucket in how many 4th quarters in the ECF's? Was it ZERO in the first 2 or 3 games as well? Man went ghost and you wonder why the Celtics lost?

He choked so fucking hard when they needed him most 😭

And none of this addresses the loss of Smart and Williams.

How did that 2nd ranked defense do in the ECF's? Oh yeah, mentally fragile team who play soft got obliterated by a #8 seed. Like I said..

You guys overvalue them sooo much. Celtics fans overall address the Tatum issue constantly online. Yet here its all peaches and rainbows and he's perfect lmao. Delusional


White took over Smart’s spot. He WAS better defensively last season and even made a defensive team.

Adding a 7’3 rim protector to play next to Rob doesn’t address the defense…….ok???

Sure, the defense took a hit, but I am sure that you didn’t for one second think of how much the offense can be better by removing one of the worst offensive players in Celtics history, one of the worst shooters in league history, and the longest tenure Celtic to NEVER win a ring…swapping that guy for the ability of Porzingis is not a minus…..

“Omg the defense”

I think you just focus on Tatum too much. I’d be concerned too if you believed he was so shit and your supposed “mvp” gets dumped on every time. I wouldn’t be shocked if you have more Tatum related posts than anything else over the last few months….problem might be you.

Despite that, he was still the best eastern conference player

You cannot name anyone better.

Lol? Ummm, how about Jimmy Butler?

The fuck, are you seriously this dense and delusional?

Butler averaged 29/7/6 on 48% FG and 36% 3PT in the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Better numbers than Tatum AND he was a hell of a lot more clutch, came up bigger when they needed him consistently, and to top it all off beat the Celtics in the ECF's.

Take the homer goggles offffffffff

Brutal seeing Jrue in a Celtics uni this season. Just gonna make me throw up.





Celtics going ALL in on their core of Tatum, Brown, Porzingis, and Holiday. Good core, but lost all of their depth this offseason and now have holes to fill up front relying on Porzingis who never stays healthy and Horford who is 73 years old.

thats a good haul to Portland for Jrue. Celtics shed 2 injury prone players for a defensive stalwart at a position of need.
