Jayson Tatum Wants To Play His Entire Career In Boston

Post #1 » by **RealGM Wiretap** » Tue Jul 9, 2024 1:07 pm

Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum is still basking in the glow of winning the 2024 NBA Finals. The Celtics star is fond of calling any member of the title team "Champ" whenever he greets them. Tatum also has another reason to smile, after signing the richest contract in NBA history this summer.

The Celtics and Tatum agreed to a five-year, $313.9 million contract extension this offseason. Tatum hopes this deal is another step to keeping him with the only NBA home he's ever known.

“For me just to feel wanted, and they want me to be here and want me for the long haul,” Tatum said. “I’ll spend my whole career here and have got nothing but love for the fans, the city, and the organization. You know, we just won a championship and I want to try to win as many as I can.”

Players show loyalty = "snore."

Players don't show loyalty = "HOW DARE THEY"

Billionth player, who said he wants to end his carrier at current team, then doesn't = loyalty.

Snore as in this isn't news. Overreacting must be this guys specialty. I guess smetimes you hit a sensitive spot when you're not even aiming.

Give him a chance. He's free to say whatever he wants. He's only responsible for his acts, not those from past players.

I'm surprised, I thought for sure he'd say he couldn't wait to leave.

Me? You're really assuming a lot from a simple comment there... are you sure you aren't deflecting?
