Just didn't expect Beal to be right there, with Tatum's Family and all.


They grew up together. They've been "Day 1" since Day 1. No surprise there.


Beal is Tatum’s family lol.

Gave it to Rob and Smart. Brown and Tatum faced enormous pressure and for the most part came through...especially at the end.

I really hope people understand how big of a win that was and don't just write it off. Atlanta came to play and the crowd was into it. I don't care if they're the 7th seed. They have a ton of fire power. Boston battled and got a quality win when they could have easily folded

When Tatum calls Beal his "brother", he always sounds as if he means Beal is really a family member. It's not a figure of speech I've noticed him use otherwise.

Jaylen started 1-7 or whatever and finished with 31 on a 64% TS, and he was also excellent on defense, especially in the second half.

That’s the type of games you need to win on the road in the playoffs.

What more can people ask for from the two all-stars on the road? Both played like stars tonight

Silver seems more lenient than Stern. Could see it just being a fine.

Joe seems to basically trust 7 guys. Outside of them it was Hauser for 10 minutes and Grant and Muscala each for 1.

Grant will no doubt play more whenever the Cs actually go up against Embiid or Giannis, if not sooner. Nobody should be surprised if Hauser sits for those games.

Ohhh. That's Interesting. IDK that.
They looked like Fam tonight.

In a huge 4th quarter on the road, Tatum had 16 on 7 shots, and Jaylen had 12 on 7 shots.

That was a big-time quarter.

Could happen to Murray too. The ref did not look pleased.

Not when it comes to refs. Remember grant earlier this year? This is 100% a suspension and if not he’s getting a bad whistle. Celtics win regardless. You can’t seek out and do that to an official

Brown and Robert.

It was a good win and should be a 4-1, what is concerning long term is the amount of minutes that brown and tatum are playing, grant or hauser has to play more to gain confidence and reduce their load.

Beal may be there for Tatum but a ton of nba players are in town because it’s the Nike eybl basketball tournament for elite youth basketball players.
