I like our chances now that the warriors are out. Our lack of a true point guard hurt us in the finals last year. This year, i think tatum leveled up big time and this is his year. Celtics pride! 617

Tatum ended the process and got their coach fired in 1 performance. And he had 0 turnovers. He is him.

Tatum vs Embiid is what it looks like when one player clearly cares more about winning individual awards and the other is focused on winning a championship.
