For me it was really the text that was goofy...breh could have kept that to himself. The armband was extra too but I won't kill him for it

Yeah it was extra but the way Kobe acted bout MJ was extra :manny: Kobe even copied the way MJ walked lol so it’s easy to see why Tatum would emulate that kindve admiration

Dawg BI isnt better than tatum. Thats a crazy take. BI JUST made the playoffs this year. Tatum has reached heights in his 1st year that BI hasnt even touched

BI has literally played with amazon workers and substitute teachers his entire career. tatum got drafted to a team that had kyrie/hayward/jaylen brown/al horford/marcus smart/terry rozier

you're comparing apples to oranges here. ingram literally got drafted into the woat situation and got traded to an equally horrendous situation

I don’t think they were better than a healthy Bucks squad this season. It’s possible they may not get back, but unless you think the Bucks are about to make it to the Finals every year for the next 5-6 seasons, someone else will have to fill those spots and I would think the Celtics have a chance to be in the mix assuming Tatum & Brown stay put



Go look up Giannis’s numbers from 2019 against the Raptors or 2020 against the Heat. I don’t know if dominant is the word I’d use. Revisionist history aside plenty of folks were arguing Giannis didn’t have what it took to win it all as the man.
No team goes every year but I’m saying the Celtics might not get back..

Giannis is gonna be in his way..

NBA is gonna be so fire these next few seasons :ohlawd:

I think Giannis might win 2 or 3 more chips

Tatum is not a dominant offensive player who can just bully nikkas on the court

Tatum only been in the league about 4 years. The potential is there, i think he just needs more time. He's far from a complete product

The tatum you see now isnt the tatum you will see in 2026. He's improved every year.

Age means nothing these days. These guys aren't just learning how to play basketball, they have been playing at a high level for pretty much all of their life. Their game is their game. Usually by the 3rd or 4th season players start to peak. Tatum just finished his 5th season, he is who he is at this point.....

I said the same shyt about Durant when I first joined this place and yall got all pissy, fast forward to today not much has changed about his game.


Kobe is one of the rare players ever that could completely change his game and somehow get better later on. This nikka Tatum aint no Kobe.

All depends. How much more Tatum & Brown’s game develops, how much Horford has left and who can fill his shoes, if Time Lord can stay healthy & continue to develop, if they can add more depth, etc.

Giannis is the best player in the conference and the Bucks should be favored for the foreseeable future but I have no reason to think the Celtics can’t be in the mix

They’ll be in the mix no doubt but Giannis is a different animal

Giannis is the best player in the world not just the conference..

Again Tatum right now is strictly a jump shooter :hubie:

He‘s never gonna be able to physically dominate people like that

My main point with that post is nikkas need to pump the breaks on writing him off as a bum. We've seen young superstars be garbage in their first Finals and bounce back to be generational players.
:mjlol:

He’s not going to be a generational player

I really don’t understand why some people think this

Lol, are these idiots trying to imply that Kobe has had a Tatum like performance in the Finals? :russ:

bruh was playing with radmanovic, vujacic and farmar getting 20 mpg in the finals

imagine if the gawd had tatum's teammates in that series
