You trade him if it's a Achilles.

Start blowing it up this year, which they were already going to do anyway.

Then take your 5 first round picks from whoever needs a superstar next off-season.


Blow it up LMAO get a grip man….


They were blowing it up before the injury guy.

You understand that right?

Celtics had an 11 point lead at the half, Knicks scored 70 points in the 2nd half

No you **** dont


Let me know what you think in the summer when they have to unload horford, KP and Hauser just to get under the apron and then play the entire season without Tatum

Y'all are in denial about what's happening here

Tatum done for all next year, Al retires, trade KP, fire Joe and roll out a crappy team for the next 2-3 years until Tatum is fully recovered and hope the Lakers haven’t caught up or passed us in titles by then.

On the upside, Joe really liked a lot of the looks we got tonight.

Knicks def earned this one , would have should have could have been 3-1 C’s but we choked…. KP and Joe can go in the off-season, then go from there! JT was balling , damn shame it ended with an injury. Hope it’s not worst case scenario. Go C’s.

Season not over until it's over. Really does depend on Tatum. I don't understand how everyone becomes a specialist in orthopedics from one camera shot.

But +1 on Joe and KP gone.


Season is 100% over. Tatum was freaking getting wheeled off in a wheelchair crying. He knows he tore his Achilles.

They are not paying tax if Tatum is out for the year.

AOS: literally everyone but JT. This group should have contended for at least several more years but now we're quickly approaching a rebuild because JB still has zero basketball skills and KP is the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man on Ozempic.

I pray that Tatum’s injury is not serious. That would be a real tough situation for JT

You pivot to a bridge year at a much reduced payroll number next year and try and get back in the hunt in 2026-27.

This **** is so fragile.

Jayson Tatum brought joy to me as a fan. My username is about Pierce but I love watching and look forward to watching Tatum every game just as much. That **** broke me. When you see a guy who never gets injured go down like that and he was doing everything he can to help the Celtics tonight just **** blows man.

I always said to myself once the Jay era comes to a close. I’m gonna chill with being such a big Celtics fanatic but man to not see Tatum likely all of next season in his prime makes me want to be a casual fan

This is all that matters.

It would be hilarious if we take the next 2 games though.
