@p0xtah@Palm1zzy The 2025 celtics were hobbled, tatum played through a calf injury that lead to his torn achillies, jaylen torn meniscus, holiday had a hamstring injury, horford was just worse all year bc he got older and KP had aids
@bjpivonka@BallUpTopBrad Idk he’s not that much older than JB that im woried about a window being shortened. Im worried about wasting the rest of Tatum’s career bc who knows when we’ll draft another player at his level
@itsGeorgeyy They keep trying to steal extra minutes for him and it costs then every time. Keeping hin at low minutes during the regular season is starting to hurt them
@herechigoes Idk this feels like dame 2.0, there isnt really a sliver of basketball logic for him to go to miami, unless he just doesn’t care about winning
@BallUpTopBrad Don’t get me wrong we can upgrade but given what our roster looked like I think he should have been given more of an opportunity to be that especially given white was a brick all year
he was one of the best isolation scorers in the league this year and joe didn’t give him enough of an opportunity to take advantage of tatum’s gravity imo. I think we didint maximize his improved skillset at all and we should have embraced him as our third option this run and it lead to our downfall
@AdamSmithCPA@JonesOnTheNBA Dwade in years 2 and 3 he was still older than wemby is right now and id argue despite wemby’s inconsistencys on offense he’s better than wade was back then
@Mahcus_Smaht I think if jaylen isn’t willing to take more of a back seat and play a role where his offense is more based on cuts/spot ups and attacking closeouts its time to move on. Love the guy for all he’s done but for this team but we’re at a point where this ain’t working well anymore
