100%. Tatum also whines to the refs constantly. Even with their title odds they are hard to root for.

Does this team have interest guarding…tf is that by Hauser and Tatum the previous play on defense. Why tf is Tatum helping on a Strus drive only for okoro to shoot a wide open three….this **** team is so unserious

You have to guard professional basketball players. You have to guard professional basketball players.
You are not going to win trying to outshoot them, when they’re actually trying defensively.
Why is this a difficult thing? It literally does not look like they have practiced any of their schemes or rotations.

I don't watch any other teams unless they're playing us, but is there anybody in the NBA who whines to the refs as much as Tatum does?

This types of stuff comes back to bite almost every team unless you're have some GOAT squad that can just turn in out whenever and flip a switch. We aren't that good to just flip the switch with no alpha males on this team

Knicks will hit this squad like a bus. Denver, on the other hand, will run over it like an 18 wheeler.

It is weird to see the Celtics shooting 53 percent from three and not blowing out the other team. They are very cavalier with their defense.

I think Luka might be the only one and Tatum is definitely starting to widen the gap here.

The three-ball is Cavs only chance at sending this series back to Cleveland. What happened to their strategy of running shooters off the line? All talk.

Tatum needs to be spoken to about that.
The Coach should Bench him for all of that constant whining.
