Lmao how does fulfill your life in any way? You glazing your pants over someone else’s achievement then got another man in your profile pic. Need a life much?
Dropping 30 in a closet game where they up 25 is not that big of an accomplishment, I’m sorry. All them 3s he was chucking up in the 3rd and 4th stat padding, and I like Tatum, but no.
What Ric said from 11:17 to about 12:04 is what I’ve been watching television to hear all day. Jayson Tatum being able to guard the Mavs Center is what allowed Brown and the team to play such good defense on Luka. The Lob was a huge part of the Mavs game coming into the finals. Tatum shut that down as much as Brown locked up Luka if you ask me. Mavs had more lobs than all other play off teams combined. I’m not saying he can guard Centers because if it were Denver, they were not gonna put Tatum on Jokic which makes what he did in this series even more special to me. Tatum guard Lively/Gafford meant that someone else was screening for Luka which allowed Al/KP and to a lesser degree Tillman to help defend the rim and paint and double team Luka which also helped to cut off the lobs. Tatum guarding the 5s in this series really was a huge boost for the Celtics defensively.
Rebounds and assists have been devalued in a way because players are now stat conscious and legacy conscious. You'd see a great rebounder like AD SNAG 2 or 3 crucial boards for a game-defining possession. He finishes with 12 rebounds and you understand why. Players like Luka and Westbrook can have 14 reb in a game and the viewers could say "Dang....When did they even grab those??" lol. None of the rebounds were crucial and most of them came because their bigs know the star is trying to get the stat so they move out of the way smdh. It's sickening. Doncic can avg 10 reb per game but no one considers him a "great rebounder". I've seen with my own eyes a player like Draymond with great box out and timing be a good rebounder despite the numbers. Don't let the stats fool you! Is all Im saying
They defending Brown different than Tatum. Brown was getting single covered where Tatum was getting all 5 players attention. Celtics needed Tatum to be a playmaker and rebounder more than the scoring which could've been higher if he didn't miss shots and got the calls he should've.
Plus he guarded the mavs bigs and it killed the mavs offense which is the 1-5 pick and rolls...He essentially killed them on offense and defense yet wasnt the finals mvp
Three football players and one Bball analyst. They couldn't get ONE former NBA guy on for these segments? Skip got Paul Pierce, Speak can't get ANYONE!?
He been a hater he picked against the Lakers last year to lose against the grizzlies and the Warriors he about to eat some humble pie today Boston beat Dallas like a 🥁 😂
Why does Acho always say only this show can answer this question because of certain ppl lol. As if other shows don’t have ppl with higher qualifications or credentials lol.
No Tatum wasnt the closer, but he made dame sure he got his assists to the ones who hit the shots. His stat line was 31-11-8-2 last night. His average for the playoffs was 25-9-6. He's the Celts best player.
Tatum gets more assists because when he passes the ball...others make the shot. When others pass to him...he misses the shot so they don't get an assist... It's a phony stat...
Because AE is him… Tatum doesn’t have that IT factor his personality is flat. Doesn’t take anything away from his talent and skill on the floor but it does matter when it comes to likability.
@@jakeequality8065 yes on the court that can be argued. But that’s not the only thing that people care about. That is why I think AE is pushed more… he has style and grace on and off the court.
Don't worry when Cooper come in and if Ant don't have a Chip at age 23,24,25, they go turn on him. The Media don't realize that Russell is the only player came in winning a Chip and retire winning a Chip, plus 9 in between. Yet some how thats not Great. Over the years the Media has devalue winning for popularity. Sad!!!!😢
I’m sorry but did anyone watch game 5? Tatum played an incredible all around game, and has scored more than JB in several games. This is a media driven narrative. They’re worried there is no click worthy narrative around JB and JT.
@@sneakyf7668the nuggets were humiliated by the mediocre wolves team..couldn't get past on semi finals and now you're talking alternative reality..idiot😊
I really hate when they esp shady talks about basketball... IT just sounds wrong... I'd rather listen to skip... There's only one person on here who can give a good consistently unbiased basketball opinion.
Tatum may not have closed this series but Bucher is tweaking because Tatum has closed games before over the years. Go watch his 7 against Philly last year and game 6 vs the Bucks 2 years ago and tell me he’s not a go 2 guy. Folks love being prisoners of the moment 😒
We can finally move on to the future GOAT Debates of: Michael Jordan vs Victor Wembanyama, Michael Jordan vs Anthony Edwards, Michael Jordan vs Luka Doncic, Michael Jordan vs Nikola Jokic, Michael Jordan vs Jalen Brunson, Michael Jordan vs Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Michael Jordan vs Ja Morant, Michael Jordan vs Donovan Mitchell, Michael Jordan vs Jason Tatum, et cetera, et cetera!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@javarzshinall9396 4:20 Well both “delights” and “snack-size” : Jayson Tatum and Luka Doncic are more like LeBron James because all 3 players have lost at least ONE NBA Finals Series because LeBron James has lost SIX different NBA Finals Series, but the other players on the list still have a chance to win multiple NBA World Championships WithOut LOSING even ONE NBA Finals Series like THE GOAT - Michael Jeffrey Jordan. If you want to be UNDEFEATED on the biggest stage in basketball (aka the NBA Finals) with multiple NBA World Championships, then the players on that list should work hard to “Be Like Mike”.🤷♂️😅
Point everyone is missing. Teams in this playoff game plan for Jason Tatum. If teams start game planning for Jalen brown, Browns numbers would be different.
jaylen brown took a large leap forward from age 26-27 seasons. let's hope that Jayson Tatum can do the same, because last year everyone said Jaylen Brown couldn't be that dude either. Both players are still only 26 and 27
Hearing this from the actual voter is a problem... tatum impacted the game in so many ways its dumb to even analize it.. yeah he didnt hit a winning shot, but he carried the team throught all season.
“Tatum’s impact wasn’t as substantial.” If you actually watched & understood the game, you would see that Tatum draws attention from the entire defense every possession. This is why he had so many assists. Brown was awesome, but he gets to play 1 on 1 because Tatum is on the floor.
It's funny how as long as you're talking about lebron or luka, assists and rebounds matter but when you're not talking about those 2, the only thing that matters is scoring
I’m sorry but being upset that Kyrie tweeted that “it’s bigger than us” is just an unnecessary take. It is literally just a game!! Players should be able to go home after a loss and be able to tweet 20 mins later and say I loss the battle but I won the war. I’m sorry but maybe it’s just the Christian in me but no one should be taking anything so seriously to the point where you’re letting a defeat consume you. Kyrie’s response to the loss is beautiful. It shows that he doesn’t place his worth in a sport! Keep being unbothered Kyrie! And also, both Tatum and Brown are great players and both are needed. This idea that one is better than the other is just a way to divide the two. They are really trying their hardest to turn these two men against each other but the brotherhood between them is beautiful.
I don't know what finals, what year or what players these guys watched because every take these guys talked about was way off and opinions on what the players did in game.

I love JB but we had one post season of him taking some big shots and all of a sudden it supersedes JT doing it since he got to Boston? Cut it out! Close out game who had the ball in their hands? Tatum & he should have won finals MVP.
Tatum did the same thing that MJ did in those Bull years. MJ told Phil Jackson that he didn't want to have to go out and score 50-60 points a night. MJ realized just as Tatum did, that team basketball was going to win the day.
@@JC-db7so I feel ya about the scoring. MJ didn't have 4 other starters that could get 20+ any night. That's also the difference in how Tatum scored the ball and how MJ had to do it. Valid point non the less.
Does anyone take the opposing defensive strategy?? JB literally had the better match-up, so his degree of difficulty is reduced… if the numbers are the similar, I go for DoD.
Plus Tatums impact on the defensive end where he guarded the mav bigs coz hes 6'91/2 and can also switch to the mav guards killed their offense...The Mavs just run the 1-5 pick and rolls and because of Tatums height and length he killed it not Brown guarding Doncic when they were just switching it when the Mavs bigs were setting the screens.
0:14 Everybody on this list has lost at least ONE NBA Finals series. Nobody on this particular list is UNDEFEATED in the NBA FINALS Championship Round.
5:25 Michael Jordan silenced his critics by the first championship because the majority of the basketball world were already calling Michael Jordan “The GOAT”, and only a small minority were criticizing him for not winning a one championship. Once Michael Jordan won only one world championship, Michael Jordan cemented himself as The GOAT!!! So when he won Championship Number 2 and Championship Number 3 for the first THREE-PEAT, Michael Jordan cemented himself as the GOAT of basketball in this life and in the next 3 lifetimes…..and THEN….Jordan won World Championship Number 4 with the 72-10 greatest basketball team in life history, Championship Number 5, and Championship Number 6 to complete his 2nd Three-Peat….Michael Jordan singlehandedly destroyed and buried a GOAT debate in the sport of basketball, leaving the MLB, NFL, NHL, Olympics, and all other organized sports and professional industries looking for “the Michael Jordan of…..” their particular sports or “the Michael Jordan of…….” their particular industry or profession!!!!!
I understand clutch moments and key plays, but a game is 48 minutes. Tatum put a stop to the Mavericks best threat (lob dunks), Tatum was on Lively/Gafford and the only time they generated a sense of consistency in lob dunks were in game 4.... when we got obliterated. There was never a time where the game was on the line in this series, game 3 was close but nothing was like, oh if Brown missed that shot the Mavericks would've won. I think the Mavs cut it to 5 in the 4th in game 3 which doesn't mean anything going both ways until 0s hit the clock. The OT against the Pacers was the only time a shot won or loss a game this series with the Cs.
Another thing that is never mentioned is rebounds. Tatum is the teams leading rebounder in the regular season and in the playoffs. And he was the leader in PPG in the regular season and the playoffs. All the playoffs. Including the finals. Tatum scored 31 points in 2 of the 5 games. He had over 11 assists in 2 of the 5 games. And one game Holiday led in all these things. Brown didn’t lead in any statistical catagory. I’m sorry but he didn’t. You can say he is more clutch if you want to but Boston didn’t need to be couch to beat Dallas. They didn’t.
Tatum should have been finals mvp. JB knows it too or he wouldnt have said what he said in the interview. JB also realizes he sits in the corner and tatum facilitates the offense.
WTF with Ocho. Intentionally left Curry out from the list just to make a dishonest claim. And Ric Bucher? Why are these people still have jobs? One of the people who made a case to separate the Jays. Reason nobody is watching them. Out in 1.30 mark just to comment here.
hating on luka who had the most pts, rbs, assits, and steals between both teams is crazy yes the defense was bad but he showed up every game except for last night. kyrie and the rest of his team failed to show up
These guys are clowns. I love JB but Luka still dropped nearly 30. It’s not like JB shut him down. JT had to play the 5 and gets no credit. He got everyone including JB involved to help with their numbers and impact. Lead the team in the offensive stats that you love so much and yet you give no credit. This is just “how do we move the goal post to talk him down again?” Whatever it takes to deminish JT. 🤡
How do people not understand or talk injuries and usage rate all season, then expecting this vs celtics on both def and off ends? Played a full bball season ever?
The Ultimate Goal is Winning. The City of Dallas is TIRED of perrenial playoff exits. We are not minessota or Charlotte that our finals participation is the Championship. The DFW is a Huge Global brand that Needs Rings, Needs Trophies to show that all the work put in wasn't for nothing. You know why The Cowboys have such a loyal fanbase and is the number 1 team in Dallas? The winning culture and 5 superbowls, 5 parades that they brought to the city of Dallas and Chanpionships are Forever. The Stars, Mavs and Rangers all only have 1 in all their history as a franchise and feel like they go to the finals every 20 years. Thats not gonna cut it. To erase years of Poverty, Heartige of lossing, DNA of Dissapointment the Mavs, Stars and Rangers need to star winning RINGS. One every full eclipse is not enough we need to star Winning Championships we need an era of having a dynasty winning 3 -5 Trophies and it needs to happen soon before the local and international Dallas fans lose intrest in Badketball and the Mavericks Brand for being synonymous with lossing and poverty.
You know it's not the 90s anymore right? It's kind of silly to talk about the the winning culture of Dallas when they haven't been to a conference finals in the last quarter of a century. I think really what has helped the Cowboys is that they are very very good at branding and that the DFW area just loves football.

@@Gen-df3gf Yeah because they were really good at branding, clearly not because of a continued culture of winning where they have generally seen a round 1 exit. The Cowboys run a good business, but I'm not too sure about a good team.
Maybe you guys will just be quiet now. Look what they try starting the show off with. So happy for Tatum and Brown. Like brown shot 7-22 last night and the game before last night, he struggled. Like i was fine with either one of them winning MVP. But this show starting off like this instead of just being happy they are champions. This is wack
People don't understand basketball enough to realize that Tatum probably had this series' more difficult defensive assignment. Going up against Luka and the Mavs' style of pick and roll it definitely helps to have a strong perimeter defender. But what's more important is having a very versatile post-defender who can hold his own against centers, and consistently, effectively, switch onto Luka without getting abused. You're either trapping, hedging, or switching. Switching is the safest route, but ONLY if you have the personnel to do it. Tatum was that personnel. His defensive versatility made all the difference in the world. That last game, when Porzingis came in, still hurt. The Celtics gave up an open three on almost every single possession because KP couldn't switch effectively. This has been the story of the Mavs for years. When they play the Warriors they struggle because Draymond can switch. Gobert is just as good at defense, but he can't switch as well, so against the Jazz and the Wolves, that offense exploited him specifically. At the same time, Tatum was the most effective offensive player. He basically was playing PG from the PF spot. And while he didn't shoot as well as he probably should have, he was able to get to the basket at will which constantly broke down the Mavs' defense. They were in rotation and giving up open threes constantly. Celtics have a lot of players who can't really create their own shots but were getting a ton of clean looks this series (Houser, Pritchard, Horford, etc). He really was out there playing like LeBron, and it's crazy that he was robbed of this award.
Remember when they were saying just a week ago or so that Kyrie was the most talented blah blah blah ever. Now he ain't s**t according to these same media types. Lol. Drive-by media sucks.
McCoy is wrong. Kobe got 15 rebounds in that game 7 of his 5th ring. He knew Perkins was out and he took advantage, and performed where he needed to perform‼️‼️
So all these other years that Jaylen came up short.. Tatum was leading and taking all the shots and the heat.. y’all said Jaylen needed to be traded or step up.. he even said he had to work on his game.. turnovers at the wrong time and just disappeared. One great season and now he’s the best in the world? Stop it’s Tatum man
This is why we need bball dudes on some of these takes, JB was getting a lot of looks because Tatum was getting triple teamed, and JB was wide open in the corner 😂😂
Tatum played better than Brown in the finals. he should have been the finals MVP but guess what now he will be hungry and play even better. That’s scary.

What Ric said from 11:17 to about 12:04 is what I’ve been watching television to hear all day. Jayson Tatum being able to guard the Mavs Center is what allowed Brown and the team to play such good defense on Luka. The Lob was a huge part of the Mavs game coming into the finals. Tatum shut that down as much as Brown locked up Luka if you ask me. Mavs had more lobs than all other play off teams combined. I’m not saying he can guard Centers because if it were Denver, they were not gonna put Tatum on Jokic which makes what he did in this series even more special to me. Tatum guard Lively/Gafford meant that someone else was screening for Luka which allowed Al/KP and to a lesser degree Tillman to help defend the rim and paint and double team Luka which also helped to cut off the lobs. Tatum guarding the 5s in this series really was a huge boost for the Celtics defensively.
THIS IS BASKETBALL KNOWLEDGE ‼️‼️

Shaq was way better than Kobe during their time with the Lakers.
what a bunch of fools, I see Joy didn't show up
Somebody tell shady that rebounds and assists matters. The game is bigger than shooting percentage.
Bro he led in all those and point and still didn’t win FMVP come on what are we doing here
he’s a football player he don’t know sh!!
he's an idiot that's been tackled too many times
Rebounds and assists have been devalued in a way because players are now stat conscious and legacy conscious. You'd see a great rebounder like AD SNAG 2 or 3 crucial boards for a game-defining possession. He finishes with 12 rebounds and you understand why. Players like Luka and Westbrook can have 14 reb in a game and the viewers could say "Dang....When did they even grab those??" lol. None of the rebounds were crucial and most of them came because their bigs know the star is trying to get the stat so they move out of the way smdh. It's sickening. Doncic can avg 10 reb per game but no one considers him a "great rebounder". I've seen with my own eyes a player like Draymond with great box out and timing be a good rebounder despite the numbers. Don't let the stats fool you! Is all Im saying
@@CharlieAnnSon Thank you. People's IQs nowadays are shocking. It is meaningless to have numbers without context.
I’m convinced Shady McCoy gets all his takes from watching 2K gameplay. Never seen someone be wrong everyday consistently
BIG TIME...
Last week Ocho was say Luka and Kyrie was the most talented backcourt ever. Ocho is the wrongest
8 on 2
You don’t know basketball Biden voter
Bro go take a english class.
@MadMan-vs2mc
You mad asf the Mavs lost.
Lmaooo
Ocho won me money .😂😂 I learned if ocho pick a team I do the opposite 😂
They defending Brown different than Tatum. Brown was getting single covered where Tatum was getting all 5 players attention. Celtics needed Tatum to be a playmaker and rebounder more than the scoring which could've been higher if he didn't miss shots and got the calls he should've.
they don't see that because because they don't know basketball
Plus he guarded the mavs bigs and it killed the mavs offense which is the 1-5 pick and rolls...He essentially killed them on offense and defense yet wasnt the finals mvp
@@darnelllarryscott7032exactly. Casual takes!
JT definitely had an argument for cfmvp and fmvp you can’t say he didn’t show up

🍀🍀🍀🍀

@SamoaVsEverybody814 you can 100% SMD 😂☘️🏆☘️
Much different takes than last week, or last year,”Break up the Js”…he said😂😂😂
Three football players and one Bball analyst. They couldn't get ONE former NBA guy on for these segments? Skip got Paul Pierce, Speak can't get ANYONE!?
HA! Horrible video.
Right, to tell them there was no way mavs could have beaten the Celtics and I'm not even a Boston fan smh 🤦.
The show is trash really
U can tell because shady said he never seen Irving like this and it's like YOO in Brooklyn Boston did same thing to irving😂
I said the same thing they can get one basketball head on the show. I can’t listen to three football guys talk basketball.
Rich is a hater 😂😂😂
He been a hater he picked against the Lakers last year to lose against the grizzlies and the Warriors he about to eat some humble pie today Boston beat Dallas like a 🥁 😂
It pains him to say something positive .
F ric don't take him seriously he's a scrub, not even an athlete
He’s a whole clown
He really is😂
Why does Acho always say only this show can answer this question because of certain ppl lol. As if other shows don’t have ppl with higher qualifications or credentials lol.
No Tatum wasnt the closer, but he made dame sure he got his assists to the ones who hit the shots. His stat line was 31-11-8-2 last night. His average for the playoffs was 25-9-6. He's the Celts best player.
Tatum is good when the game is not on the line....that's it
without a doubt, and they talk so much about JT guarded Luca, well what did Luca score??
Tatum gets more assists because when he passes the ball...others make the shot. When others pass to him...he misses the shot so they don't get an assist...
It's a phony stat...
@@berniekerns4281 so he doesnt hit game winners? shudddduppppp
@@berniekerns4281 more game winners than Brown. Historic 46 and 51 point playoff games both in elimination scenarios.
For some reason the Media doesnt want to hype up Tatum the same way they hype up Ant Edwards
Because AE is him… Tatum doesn’t have that IT factor his personality is flat. Doesn’t take anything away from his talent and skill on the floor but it does matter when it comes to likability.
Tatum is better than Ant@@IshanaeS
@@jakeequality8065 yes on the court that can be argued. But that’s not the only thing that people care about. That is why I think AE is pushed more… he has style and grace on and off the court.
Don't worry when Cooper come in and if Ant don't have a Chip at age 23,24,25, they go turn on him. The Media don't realize that Russell is the only player came in winning a Chip and retire winning a Chip, plus 9 in between. Yet some how thats not Great. Over the years the Media has devalue winning for popularity. Sad!!!!😢
How does Rick still have a job
I once had respect for him. After this series I realize he’s clueless. I lost all redirect for him. All I hear hun say now is blah blah
EXACTLY GET HIM OFF THE AIR
How do those crows taste? The greatest backcourt in nba history got owned by their daddies Tatum and Brown!
I’m sorry but did anyone watch game 5? Tatum played an incredible all around game, and has scored more than JB in several games. This is a media driven narrative. They’re worried there is no click worthy narrative around JB and JT.
every one of these idiots picked a 5th seed over the team that led the league in wins and margin of victory.
The celtics are so lucky they didn’t have to face nuggets in the finals, they are 0-3 against them in this season😂
@@sneakyf7668the nuggets were humiliated by the mediocre wolves team..couldn't get past on semi finals and now you're talking alternative reality..idiot😊
They DID????. Honestly asking BECAUSE I've missed some of THOSE episodes!!!!.

I really hate when they esp shady talks about basketball... IT just sounds wrong... I'd rather listen to skip... There's only one person on here who can give a good consistently unbiased basketball opinion.
Joy was like "F that, i aint coming to work today!" Lol
Tatum may not have closed this series but Bucher is tweaking because Tatum has closed games before over the years. Go watch his 7 against Philly last year and game 6 vs the Bucks 2 years ago and tell me he’s not a go 2 guy. Folks love being prisoners of the moment 😒
Networks really need to stop putting these football guys in these basketball conversations.
We can finally move on to the future GOAT Debates of: Michael Jordan vs Victor Wembanyama, Michael Jordan vs Anthony Edwards, Michael Jordan vs Luka Doncic, Michael Jordan vs Nikola Jokic, Michael Jordan vs Jalen Brunson, Michael Jordan vs Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Michael Jordan vs Ja Morant, Michael Jordan vs Donovan Mitchell, Michael Jordan vs Jason Tatum, et cetera, et cetera!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nobody calling those guys GOATS unless they can do similar things as LeBron and MJ
This dude lost. U gotta have the résumé. None of them will have the accolades of mj and lebron
@@javarzshinall9396 4:20 Well both “delights” and “snack-size” : Jayson Tatum and Luka Doncic are more like LeBron James because all 3 players have lost at least ONE NBA Finals Series because LeBron James has lost SIX different NBA Finals Series, but the other players on the list still have a chance to win multiple NBA World Championships WithOut LOSING even ONE NBA Finals Series like THE GOAT - Michael Jeffrey Jordan. If you want to be UNDEFEATED on the biggest stage in basketball (aka the NBA Finals) with multiple NBA World Championships, then the players on that list should work hard to “Be Like Mike”.🤷♂️😅
@@rickyorton4500so they should lose in the ECF instead of the finals like Mike? n that’s better then losing in the finals?
You forgot clutch sports will some how put LeBron son in the conversation 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jason Tatum’s best player, shows that they even watch CELTICS. Hater is hater naturally
Z
Tatum is MORE TALENTED but Brown was MORE SIGNIFICANT, more of a IMPACT THAN than Tatum!!.
Lol Ric getting torched bruh..gotta pull out the McCants phrase from Gil's Arena..."get in the body bag, come put your fkn legs in here" lmao
Came to see joy eat her words and she aint even here🤦♂️
She ran from Accountability
Point everyone is missing. Teams in this playoff game plan for Jason Tatum. If teams start game planning for Jalen brown, Browns numbers would be different.
Probably!!!!.
true
Shady doesn't know basketball rebounding wins games. Second chance shots for offense and defensive denies opponents extra shots
Bro practiced that “KYYY!” bit all night in the mirror like B Rabbit. Absolute cornball.
Bro, EXACTLY! A DUNCE!🥴
jaylen brown took a large leap forward from age 26-27 seasons. let's hope that Jayson Tatum can do the same, because last year everyone said Jaylen Brown couldn't be that dude either. Both players are still only 26 and 27
Hearing this from the actual voter is a problem... tatum impacted the game in so many ways its dumb to even analize it.. yeah he didnt hit a winning shot, but he carried the team throught all season.
“Tatum’s impact wasn’t as substantial.” If you actually watched & understood the game, you would see that Tatum draws attention from the entire defense every possession. This is why he had so many assists. Brown was awesome, but he gets to play 1 on 1 because Tatum is on the floor.
It's funny how as long as you're talking about lebron or luka, assists and rebounds matter but when you're not talking about those 2, the only thing that matters is scoring
I’m sorry but being upset that Kyrie tweeted that “it’s bigger than us” is just an unnecessary take. It is literally just a game!! Players should be able to go home after a loss and be able to tweet 20 mins later and say I loss the battle but I won the war. I’m sorry but maybe it’s just the Christian in me but no one should be taking anything so seriously to the point where you’re letting a defeat consume you. Kyrie’s response to the loss is beautiful. It shows that he doesn’t place his worth in a sport! Keep being unbothered Kyrie! And also, both Tatum and Brown are great players and both are needed. This idea that one is better than the other is just a way to divide the two. They are really trying their hardest to turn these two men against each other but the brotherhood between them is beautiful.
I don't know what finals, what year or what players these guys watched because every take these guys talked about was way off and opinions on what the players did in game.
Now Tatum is Certified, This puts him number 2 on the all time list, behind Michael Jordan!!! Congrats Celtics!!!
I'm a celtics fan and that's crazy statement lol
@@johnmcmanus1430 1. Jordan 2.Tatum 3. Bird. 4. Chamberlain 5. Kareem. 6. Earvin Johnson 7. Hakeem Olajuwon. 8. Bill Russell. 9. Shaq 10. Robert Parish!!! This list cannot be challenged!!!
@@johnmcmanus1430 Your right maybe my statement was crazy , i was thinking maybe Tatum should be number 1 ???? You might be on to something!!! Thanks
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 real comedy here buddy
Certified fraud no fmvp 😂
I love JB but we had one post season of him taking some big shots and all of a sudden it supersedes JT doing it since he got to Boston? Cut it out! Close out game who had the ball in their hands? Tatum & he should have won finals MVP.
Facts
Every time Ric Bucher talks, I hit the fast forward.
Tatum did the same thing that MJ did in those Bull years. MJ told Phil Jackson that he didn't want to have to go out and score 50-60 points a night. MJ realized just as Tatum did, that team basketball was going to win the day.
Except shoot the same percentage MJ did and he also didn’t average what MJ averaged in the playoffs or finals but he’s still a great player.
@@JC-db7so I feel ya about the scoring. MJ didn't have 4 other starters that could get 20+ any night. That's also the difference in how Tatum scored the ball and how MJ had to do it. Valid point non the less.
Blah blah blah 😂
Jayson Tatum played like hes happy to be there. Jaylon Brown played like he would rather die than lose again in the finals
Does anyone take the opposing defensive strategy?? JB literally had the better match-up, so his degree of difficulty is reduced… if the numbers are the similar, I go for DoD.
I agree 100% it’s like they just started watching ball a month ago
Plus Tatums impact on the defensive end where he guarded the mav bigs coz hes 6'91/2 and can also switch to the mav guards killed their offense...The Mavs just run the 1-5 pick and rolls and because of Tatums height and length he killed it not Brown guarding Doncic when they were just switching it when the Mavs bigs were setting the screens.
0:14 Everybody on this list has lost at least ONE NBA Finals series. Nobody on this particular list is UNDEFEATED in the NBA FINALS Championship Round.
5:25 Michael Jordan silenced his critics by the first championship because the majority of the basketball world were already calling Michael Jordan “The GOAT”, and only a small minority were criticizing him for not winning a one championship. Once Michael Jordan won only one world championship, Michael Jordan cemented himself as The GOAT!!! So when he won Championship Number 2 and Championship Number 3 for the first THREE-PEAT, Michael Jordan cemented himself as the GOAT of basketball in this life and in the next 3 lifetimes…..and THEN….Jordan won World Championship Number 4 with the 72-10 greatest basketball team in life history, Championship Number 5, and Championship Number 6 to complete his 2nd Three-Peat….Michael Jordan singlehandedly destroyed and buried a GOAT debate in the sport of basketball, leaving the MLB, NFL, NHL, Olympics, and all other organized sports and professional industries looking for “the Michael Jordan of…..” their particular sports or “the Michael Jordan of…….” their particular industry or profession!!!!!
I understand clutch moments and key plays, but a game is 48 minutes. Tatum put a stop to the Mavericks best threat (lob dunks), Tatum was on Lively/Gafford and the only time they generated a sense of consistency in lob dunks were in game 4.... when we got obliterated. There was never a time where the game was on the line in this series, game 3 was close but nothing was like, oh if Brown missed that shot the Mavericks would've won. I think the Mavs cut it to 5 in the 4th in game 3 which doesn't mean anything going both ways until 0s hit the clock. The OT against the Pacers was the only time a shot won or loss a game this series with the Cs.
Mavs in 8 😂
8 years
Haha!!!!.
To tell the truth nobody has talked about the Celtics winning since they won it’s kinda weird like weird
Another thing that is never mentioned is rebounds. Tatum is the teams leading rebounder in the regular season and in the playoffs. And he was the leader in PPG in the regular season and the playoffs. All the playoffs. Including the finals. Tatum scored 31 points in 2 of the 5 games. He had over 11 assists in 2 of the 5 games. And one game Holiday led in all these things. Brown didn’t lead in any statistical catagory. I’m sorry but he didn’t. You can say he is more clutch if you want to but Boston didn’t need to be couch to beat Dallas. They didn’t.
Tatum should have been finals mvp. JB knows it too or he wouldnt have said what he said in the interview. JB also realizes he sits in the corner and tatum facilitates the offense.
WTF with Ocho. Intentionally left Curry out from the list just to make a dishonest claim.
And Ric Bucher? Why are these people still have jobs? One of the people who made a case to separate the Jays. Reason nobody is watching them. Out in 1.30 mark just to comment here.
hating on luka who had the most pts, rbs, assits, and steals between both teams is crazy yes the defense was bad but he showed up every game except for last night. kyrie and the rest of his team failed to show up
The realest show ever, Kyrie truly sucks. He got called out and I’m glad y’all did🔥🔥🔥
The best success of Kyrie Irving's career is cuz of LeBron James.....
The best success of Kyrie Irving's career is cuz of LeBron James.....
These guys are clowns. I love JB but Luka still dropped nearly 30. It’s not like JB shut him down. JT had to play the 5 and gets no credit. He got everyone including JB involved to help with their numbers and impact. Lead the team in the offensive stats that you love so much and yet you give no credit. This is just “how do we move the goal post to talk him down again?” Whatever it takes to deminish JT. 🤡
The unnecessary Kyrie hate needs to stop.
the medias job is to keep us arguing ijs
How do people not understand or talk injuries and usage rate all season, then expecting this vs celtics on both def and off ends? Played a full bball season ever?
Michael Jordan rarely guarded the other team's star player. That was Scottie Pippen's job. 😮
Shady just talking to hear himself talk every day.
The Ultimate Goal is Winning. The City of Dallas is TIRED of perrenial playoff exits. We are not minessota or Charlotte that our finals participation is the Championship. The DFW is a Huge Global brand that Needs Rings, Needs Trophies to show that all the work put in wasn't for nothing. You know why The Cowboys have such a loyal fanbase and is the number 1 team in Dallas? The winning culture and 5 superbowls, 5 parades that they brought to the city of Dallas and Chanpionships are Forever. The Stars, Mavs and Rangers all only have 1 in all their history as a franchise and feel like they go to the finals every 20 years. Thats not gonna cut it. To erase years of Poverty, Heartige of lossing, DNA of Dissapointment the Mavs, Stars and Rangers need to star winning RINGS. One every full eclipse is not enough we need to star Winning Championships we need an era of having a dynasty winning 3 -5 Trophies and it needs to happen soon before the local and international Dallas fans lose intrest in Badketball and the Mavericks Brand for being synonymous with lossing and poverty.
You know it's not the 90s anymore right? It's kind of silly to talk about the the winning culture of Dallas when they haven't been to a conference finals in the last quarter of a century.
I think really what has helped the Cowboys is that they are very very good at branding and that the DFW area just loves football.

@@Gen-df3gf Yeah because they were really good at branding, clearly not because of a continued culture of winning where they have generally seen a round 1 exit.
The Cowboys run a good business, but I'm not too sure about a good team.
Bucher didn’t watch Game 5 and see Tatum close that out lol?
Maybe you guys will just be quiet now. Look what they try starting the show off with. So happy for Tatum and Brown. Like brown shot 7-22 last night and the game before last night, he struggled. Like i was fine with either one of them winning MVP. But this show starting off like this instead of just being happy they are champions. This is wack
People don't understand basketball enough to realize that Tatum probably had this series' more difficult defensive assignment.
Going up against Luka and the Mavs' style of pick and roll it definitely helps to have a strong perimeter defender. But what's more important is having a very versatile post-defender who can hold his own against centers, and consistently, effectively, switch onto Luka without getting abused.
You're either trapping, hedging, or switching. Switching is the safest route, but ONLY if you have the personnel to do it. Tatum was that personnel. His defensive versatility made all the difference in the world.
That last game, when Porzingis came in, still hurt. The Celtics gave up an open three on almost every single possession because KP couldn't switch effectively.
This has been the story of the Mavs for years. When they play the Warriors they struggle because Draymond can switch. Gobert is just as good at defense, but he can't switch as well, so against the Jazz and the Wolves, that offense exploited him specifically.
At the same time, Tatum was the most effective offensive player.
He basically was playing PG from the PF spot. And while he didn't shoot as well as he probably should have, he was able to get to the basket at will which constantly broke down the Mavs' defense. They were in rotation and giving up open threes constantly. Celtics have a lot of players who can't really create their own shots but were getting a ton of clean looks this series (Houser, Pritchard, Horford, etc).
He really was out there playing like LeBron, and it's crazy that he was robbed of this award.
Remember when they were saying just a week ago or so that Kyrie was the most talented blah blah blah ever. Now he ain't s**t according to these same media types. Lol. Drive-by media sucks.
Best comment here, rare for someone to have your perspective and not just Memeing.
The best success of Kyrie Irving's career is cuz of LeBron James......
McCoy is wrong. Kobe got 15 rebounds in that game 7 of his 5th ring. He knew Perkins was out and he took advantage, and performed where he needed to perform‼️‼️
The apology tour continues ☘️
Rick Butthurt said Tatum and Brown would never win a championship together……
So all these other years that Jaylen came up short.. Tatum was leading and taking all the shots and the heat.. y’all said Jaylen needed to be traded or step up.. he even said he had to work on his game.. turnovers at the wrong time and just disappeared. One great season and now he’s the best in the world? Stop it’s Tatum man
This is why we need bball dudes on some of these takes, JB was getting a lot of looks because Tatum was getting triple teamed, and JB was wide open in the corner 😂😂
Love watching Kyrie lose
Tatum played better than Brown in the finals. he should have been the finals MVP but guess what now he will be hungry and play even better. That’s scary.
Get Acho off the television please
