Around the NBA (and other Sports), 2023-24, Part 3

[Fierce1]

Some of the people here start chirping about Tatum's clutch performance then Killa kills them with facts.

Wash, rinse, and repeat.

[KillahGhostface]

7-23 is cooking lmao, that’s when you know people are disingenuous.

[Fierce1]

Exactly! Exactly!

Tatum had no answers for Haywood Highsmith and Caleb Martin while Doncic is cooking PG and Kawhi

JT should be dominating those guys. Clowning them even. But he’s easy to guard, especially if the 3 ball is not there.

When JT fully develops his body and he's closer to 30 years old, that will happen.

Both Jays are slow learners.

It will take time but they will get there.

Who knows, maybe JT will start tomorrow.

JT has a history of serving up fat crows every time Celtic fans start to doubt him.

Guess that depends on what kind of food you're cooking.

[CelticsPride18]

I know the Celtics wouldn’t be tied 1-1 if we had Luka instead of Tatum. He would be frying Heat gimmick defense

[Triple7]

He also has 10 boards and 8 assists plus he doesn’t disappear when the game gets tight

Exactly! Exactly!

Who needs facts though?

Lol. Last 5mins hahaha. Where’s the pressure there???
Show me what he does thr last minute on a close game.

That might be true.

But if we had Luka, the Celtics might not reach the finals.

If you believe in "defense wins championships" then that does not apply to Luka.

Stop it. That’s a grown ass man. This is what he is.

[Fierce1]

Here's the big difference, JT might not be the polished product Luka is right now, but JT will still get better.

Asking Luka to play good defense will never happen.

Defense wins championships, right?

Or you guys don't believe defense is an integral part of winning a championship.

[Triple7]

7-23 is cooking lmao, that’s when you know people are disingenuous.

7-23 and winning. I’m fine with JT shooting 1/10 from 3, just as long as we’re winning.

First off, don’t change the goalposts. The last five minutes of a close playoff game is very clearly clutch time.

But since you asked?

Yeah yeah yeah, keep hiding from anything that proves you wrong.

It’s pretty shameless, but you do you.

Tatum defense sure was amazing on Wednesday. He was contesting everything

Nope.

That's where you're 100% wrong.

His body not fully developed like JB.
That's why JT misses those layups when he gets contact.

Look at JB now and the JB of seasons past.
Right now JB is so strong and he doesn't mind getting contact.
Up close, JB is closer to 240 pounds.

Once JT gets a body like JB, there will be no more excuses.

Luka might not be all muscle, but he's body is bigger than JT's.

Give it 1 or 2 more years.

[KillahGhostface]

Is 5-6 in game tying or go ahead shots in the last playoff games good or not? Because celticspride18 said otherwise?!

Tatum’s man shot 2-7 from three against him.

One game doesn't define one's career.

It's one game.

No, you’d 100% say “we can’t keep winning with Tatum playing like that”.

C’mon lol, that’s your thing.

[Fierce1]

Killa is killing it with stats.

That's hard to dispute, guys.

Just admit that some of you guys are just biased against JT.

Defense is overrated. You just need to surround him with defensive minded players. Just look at the steph and the warriors. What happened to our great defense againt the heat last year???
Playing against defensive players in gabe vincent, lowry, struss, tyler herro and duncan robinson haha. Good offense beats good defense everytime. We need our guys, the Jays to be able to score when the games are close.
