How is it this guy always needs to talk about Tatum. Bro, Celtics are out of the playoffs. Weird hate obsession @colincowherd

[𝙈𝘽𝙏🍀 @MoggedByTatum]

Been seeing people say the gap between Tatum and Brown is small so let’s compare Brown to literally 85% of Tatum offensively these playoffs.

The difference in ecosystem creation is absurd.

With Tatum ON:

• +7.8 rORTG
• +7.6 rFirst Chance creation
• +9.3% TS on/off
• +2.6 rAST%
• +11.7% 3PA frequency
• +6.3% rim accuracy

Boston generated way more efficient looks at BOTH the rim and from 3 with him on the floor. That’s offensive ecosystem impact.

With Tatum OFF:

• -8.8 rORTG
• -9.4 rFirst Chance creation
• -9.7% rim frequency
• -7.5 rTS%
• offense completely lost rim pressure and advantage creation

Now compare the WOWY data:

Tatum without Brown:

• 52.4% 3PA freq
• 38.8% from 3
• 78.2% at rim
• 43.7% mid-range

Brown without Tatum:

• 47.7% 3PA freq
• 32.1% from 3
• 65.6% at rim
• 39.0% mid-range

One lineup still generated elite spacing + rim efficiency. The other completely collapsed stylistically.

And Brown’s own impact metrics are rough this run:

Brown ON:

• -5.6 rORTG
• -6.1 rFirst Chance creation
• -4.9% TS
• -9.0% rim frequency
• -1.3 rAST%
• -1.4 rTOV%

Brown OFF:

• +24.4 rORTG
• +24.9 rFirst Chance creation
• +8.2% TS
• +8.1 rAST%
• -5.4 rTOV%

Again, on/offs alone are not the end all be all. But when the on/offs match the WOWY data, shot profile changes, rim pressure changes, spacing changes, creation, ecosystem changes, and years worth of sample size, it absolutely means something.

Tatum is the offensive engine.
Brown is the beneficiary of it.

They are not close to the same…

[KC @kunalc8]

Yup and he feels the pain of not winning ECF MVP and Finals MVP every day. Especially from a holes like @Tuff__Crowd

[Polymarket Hoops @PolymarketHoops]

Jayson Tatum in the ECF two years ago:

30.3 PPG (led team)
10.3 RPG (led team)
6.3 APG (led team)
1.3 SPG
46/31/79%

Didn’t win ECF MVP.

[KC @kunalc8]

@CoreyB08 95%? Where are you getting that number 😭🤣

[KC @kunalc8]

@WEEI @richkented @KenLairdWEEI @Teddyjradio @heyrichhey @airmanish7

[KC @kunalc8]

I wouldn’t mind this tbh 👀

[KC @kunalc8]

@Zye_air He’s saying he spends some time out of the flow of the offense and we can actually see it at times!!

[KC @kunalc8]

Wait what?! He straight up admitted that he hijacks the offense at times and this sis exactly what everyone sees

[trade jaylen brown @EuroHarden]

translation: I’m willing to disrupt the flow of the offense as long as i get the same amount of freedom as Tatum even if it means losing in playoffs.

[KC @kunalc8]

@c4Bostonn @FCHWPO Do we though?

[KC @kunalc8]

@CelticsHuddle Lmao whose gonna tell JB he’s gonna be the third option now ☠️☠️

[KC @kunalc8]

@TheHoopsAlerts @SIChrisMannix @TheNBABase @grok is this true?

[KC @kunalc8]

Cade 3 TOs in like 30 seconds

[KC @kunalc8]

@BiggLynch If you believe this, you don’t have any analytical skills. He later says “let’s not act like his frustrations are new”… so you ARE saying he is frustrated

[KC @kunalc8]

@WholeLottaCelts Not gonna happen. And he’s solely at fault for it

[KC @kunalc8]

@John_Karalis Tmac is such a shit show. It’s so easy to read him. Says it’s coming from a place of speculation but the. Later in this clip says “let’s not act like his frustration is new”. Like what??

[KC @kunalc8]

@NoaDalzell Okay but he said “there’s a lot of stuff I am hearing”… that implies someone telling him. He could have said it’s speculation. Just a weird way to put it. Somebody is lying

[KC @kunalc8]

@cgasper @985TheSportsHub @FelgerAndMazz I’d say any version of Tatum after his 2022 finals disaster

[KC @kunalc8]

We got you in Boston bro @Giannis_An34 . You’ll be a fan fav

[Fullcourtpass @Fullcourtpass]

Giannis Antetokounmpo is expected to “put his foot on the scale” in terms of pushing a trade towards a team he wants to play for, per @sam_amick

[KC @kunalc8]

@JrueLFG That’s 98.5 and WEEI for you. They are all JB guys with the exception of a few. I think @Marc_Bertrand and @JoeyMurr lean more pro Tatum

[KC @kunalc8]

@cgasper @985TheSportsHub @FelgerAndMazz Again I see your point but Tatum was not fully developed at that point so it’s unfair to compare 2021 to 2026. 2026 Tatum would have absolutely carried that team past the nets with that group
