Is Tatum a superstar or isn’t he? He will answer that question the final 3 quarters of this game.

Luka getting injected with all sorts in the back area. Shame we couldn’t at least tie it when he was away.

Celtics only need Tatum to rebound (prevent 2nd chance points) like he did in the last game and punish smaller players one-on-one. That is it.

talent gap is evident after that 1st quarter. we should be getting waxed with that performance on offense.

So when did Joe change the substitution patterns exactly? Feels like not that long ago. Strange timing, but I kinda like it.

Al should've given the dunk to Tatum on the break early. That's where we're at now. Need to get Tatum going.

It’s easy to point out but we need a lot more from Tatum on both ends.

What's clear is Tatum doesn't go through the lay up line before games.

Big old zero right now. Team struggling this is a game where dude has to carry and he has been worse than Hauser. We lose it and he will get destroyed!

Jayson Tatum once again with a slow start. What is it with this guy? He hasn’t played well in finals.

Shooting 37% from the field and 11% from 3…vs. 52%/40% yet only down 3

Hopefully Tatum shows up and some threes start falling

Chill, Everyone here has had it with him.

Speak for yourself dude. I don't remember electing you as voice of the realgm forum.

JT deserves the criticism. We're banking on him leading a championship team and he's a no-show on his own court.

JT with a big fat ZERO. He talks as if those JKidd comments doesn't affect him, but he plays like it does.
