I tried to tell em all along gang
JB always been HIM. Boston didn't appreciate him the right way.
Said it for years now...Celtics are a top seed still without Tatum. We finally get to see it. He's just along for the ride. Bus rider and never shedding that most overrated label. Funny part is this is probably the worst roster in years for the Celtics and they're STILL a top 3 seed and thriving without him with JB running things.
Without him the Celtics are a top 3 seed. JB is having the best season of his career and he's out here publicly stating that this is the most fun season he has ever had in his career. Absolute shade to the black hole that is Tatum who will surely ball hog per usual when he returns.
He’s averaging around 30/6/5 this year (matching Tatum's career best PPG) on terrific efficiency and is finally getting to be the true number one option after years of being labeled “1B at best" next to ball hog black hole Tatum. After starting 0–3, the Celtics are 22–9 since, top 3 in net rating, and just three games off the 1 seed.
In a nutshell: Tatum is ass and the bus rider allegations hold true. Most overrated player in the NBA. JB has made it clear he likes playing without him.
