    White saved Tatum’s legacy. He was a no show in the 2nd half.

      @Jay Are Because I know basketball is not always about ‘stats’, which can be very misleading. Brown is the better player. Get rid of Tatum. Get a quality big man or point guard, since they have neither. That will make the team much better. Any real fan of basketball can see it.

      @Tensei He was worse than invisible the second half. He was a detriment. The very basketball minds can tell Tatum needs to go. Brown needs to stay. Get a quality big man that can actually make a difference in the middle AND score. Or get a real PG. Giving him points for scoring so much on ref bailout fouls in the first half? LOL You do realize that about half his points came from the charity stripe. Right? It wasn’t like he was hitting all kinds of pressure shots. You rookie.

      @Tensei There’s nothing Brown does better than Tatum. NOTHING. Scoring is lierally the only thing he comes close to being better at.

    Tatum disappeared and bricked a lot of 3’s in 2nd half. Thanks to D.White saving the Celtics.

    Ngl I wanted Jimmy to get his first ring but I have dreamed ALL MY LIFE to see a 0-3 comeback in the NBA! Anyways, it doesn’t matter if Heat or Celtics gets to the finals, any of them are gonna get destroyed and swept by the Nuggets.

      Nuggets is not that good bro, Celtics can be Champions and neither would be swept

    Absolutely cooked jimmy in the first half, joe needs to make sure tatum keeps attacking though because he didnt even have a shot attempt in the 3rd quater which cooled him off

    • Jay Are

      Miami doubles Tatum in the second half of most games

      Tatum is smart enough to be patient and trust his teammates

    The Heat shot 30% from two point range over the course of the game—Ouch!

    Tatum is good but he never gets anything done in the clutch. (From a Celtics Fan)

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:56 am

      Tatum is statistically the best clutch player EVER (from a real Celtics fan not some obsessed hater pretending to be one)

      Dominant? LOL He was bailed out by the refs so many times. He was terrible. But he made his FT’s. I’ll give him that.

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:45 am

      ​@TR Hansen 31 pts on 21 shots is dominating

      Are u 12? Lol

      @TR Hansen I don’t want to hear nothing about Tatum getting calls when the refs did everything in their power to give the game to Miami gtfoh

    • TR Hansen

      May 28, 2023 at 11:19 am

      @Ashley Vereker You will hear it. A guy had his hand on Tatum’s back, not pushing at all and he was called for a foul? And that was very late in the game! It affected the game. He wasn’t fouled. But he fell out of bounds like he was hit by a tank! More Tatum theatrics. He’s worse than Lebron. He cries every time he doesn’t get a call. Every single time. Without fail.

    Imagine losing a 3-0 lead

    I love how they showcase Tatum, who was virtually invisible when it counted and was bailed out with some phantom fouls.

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:41 am

      Tatum had 31 pts in 21 shots which is very good efficiency you weirdo

      Miami doubles Tatum every 4th quarter and Tatum is smart enough to give up the ball when doubled

      @Jay AreThats absolutely not good u crackhead math mofo.

    Damn nba if you’re gonna post Tatum at least post brown damn smh

    • Mikayla Rivera

      May 28, 2023 at 2:21 pm

      @Jay Are tatum is not a better defender than brown and brown has been EXTREMELY MORE efficient than tatum has this whole playoffs. oh and brown has also been more consistent than tatum has been this whole playoffs

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:25 pm

      @Mikayla Rivera u realize these statistics take 10 seconds to look up right?

      You 🤡

      Tatum has a higher true shooting percentage and is WITHOUT QUESTION the better defender.

      If you don’t even know Tatum is a better defender than brown you literally don’t know what ur watching

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:29 pm

      @Mikayla Rivera jaylen has a true shooting percentage of 58.3

      Tatum has a true shooting percentage of 59.7

      And that’s with Tatum drawing WAAAAAAY MORE ATTENTION from the defense.

      Tatum gets doubled CONSTANTLY. He was doubled the entire second half of last game

      Brown NEVER EEEVER gets doubled

      Tatum also averages over 6 assist a game on 2.5 turnovers a game these playoffs

      Jaylen averages 2 assists and 2.5 turnovers a game these playoffs

      It’s not close buddy

    • Mikayla Rivera

      May 28, 2023 at 2:35 pm

      @Jay Are that double team is just flat out bullshit and it’s literally just an excuse to cover up the fact that tatum has no handle and literally makes terrible decisions. brown hit double teamed a lot this whole series as well especially in the paint so i suggest watching the game with your eyes open

    • Jay Are

      May 28, 2023 at 2:45 pm

      @Mikayla Rivera ok dude I’m obviously arguing with a moron so I’m done wasting my time lol

      Defense plus rebounding plus passing. All you people are 3 point shots. It’s so many other things you need to do to win not just shoot 3s. What did jimmy do against JT ? Y’all keep talking about 3s
