That postgame Superteam comment was pretty trash though.

This theme gets said around here all the time, and Tatum is totally right to call it out when it’s used by the media.
White - total nobody until he played with Tatum.
Holiday - so good he’s almost an all-star.
Brown - check his contract extension thread, super over rated, routinely claimed he’s only he’s an all-nba guy because he “plays with Tatum/on a stacked team.”
Horford - great when he played with Tatum, left in FA and was a total bust and washed salary dump on two different teams until he came back to Boston.
Porzingis - an irrelevant salary dump bust until this year.
Brogdon - grabs a 6MOTY award.
OTOH the list of guys who have crashed and burned not next to Tatum:
Horford (as mentioned above)
Brogdon now totally irrelevant.
Grant Williams - biggest year over year crater ever.
Hayward/Rozier/Smart/Theis etc etc guys who went into the playoffs with Tatum and then promptly disappeared or landed on “worst contract” lists.
Tl;dr it’s a cute line but it’s stupid and hides the total double standard people use with the Celtics.

Embiid has shot it over 44% in exactly 1 second round playoff series out of 5 and averages 4 turnovers in the 2nd round.
You ain’t ready for this conversation buddy

1. I'm not your buddy. 2. Tatum would be lucky to average that with 1 leg, and half a face.
