The J’s are All-Stars and the Celtics suck
Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum both were named as NBA Eastern Conference All-Star reserves. First time for Jaylen, 2nd for Jayson. Golf Clap. Their team blows. I do think both of these guys deserve the All-Star nod based on their individual performances but the last month plus for the Celtics has been more than ugly. These two have become good players stacking stats on a bad team more than great players stacking wins good team, like they were not that long ago.
So what happened? Fuck if I know. All I can say is toot. toot. I have said that there was something a little off with Jayson Tatum from jump street. I have done everything in my power to like this guy and I still am, but Jesus, Mary, and Joseph do I hate watching him play basketball. Look, he is a fantastic shooter and great scorer of the basketball. He is a plus defender. He has made strides as a play maker. But, his game has reverted back to everything wrong with the NBA. He is soft and has become selfish. Playing for a foul is not searching for contact. Just go make the damn shot. The whistle will be there. God Damn, man! I get your teammates suck right now, but as an All-Star you should be trying to make them better not shunning them. This is why his Duke back ground and the fact the Kyrie is his mentor scares the shit out of me.
So, unfortunately we are now forced to ask about his leadership and attitude on a team that he was given the reigns of. I’m not saying Jayson Tatum is the sole reason the Celtics suck right now, but he sure is shit is not the solution. I keep telling my self he is 23 years old and he just needs to mature. The problem is the whole league is run by 23 year old’s. He is in the drivers seat and somewhere along the way he has driven the Celtics into a ditch.
Now, Jaylen? I’d run through a brick wall naked with pig tails for this guy.
