Jayson Tatum: 44 pts, 10 rebs, 2 asts and the win

[Stanley Kobrick]

carried right into the lottery

[ZionDunks]

The last 10 or so games will go down as the stretch that Tatum put the league on notice once and for all.

He is a dog. He’s the closest thing the NBA has had since Kobe. Right now no one has played like more of an MVP. He will finish in the vote

[dbugz]

Bust, empty stats, 2nd round fodder for his next 10 years.

coming from a fan whose team hasn't been in the ECF for two decades already

come back to us again if Joel atleast win a single playoffs series against the Celtics

[hold this L]

He was amazing last night. Was surprised he was able to pull up all night and expected him to slow down in the second half.

Airtupac spinning like a top on his bunk and the mental institution.

Chef has 20 10+ 3pt makes for a game in his career. The next closest has 5. He's the all time leading FT % shooter in NBA history. And then you watch the games and he's using ridiculous dribble moves and all types of reverse layups... Not just the best shooter ever, but one of the most creative finishers and dribblers ever. When you're drawing 35 foot traps in the half court for half the game and still drop a cinco piece on them. curry roasted marcus smart.

It’s only automatically the worst thing ever **** context when Bron misses the playoffs. He’s completely ok with it if players he likes do it (Kobe, Curry).

This. Curry is having a season that Dominique Wilkins, Allen Iverson, Tracy McGrady or Carmelo Anthony had several times in their career. Scoring more than 40 points multiple times while leading (well, in this case we don't if they will make it) to lower seed of the post-season. Yet Curry stans acting as he is having the best season ever.

Curry wrecks everyone. Smart played well enough for the Celtics to win and vs. Curry that's all you can ask for.

How many of those guys did it with a TS of over 60%?

Zero

Curry's 66% TS blows away anything those guys ever did.

As great as the Chef is, lets keep this topic about the young buck's amazing game last night. Even Rachel Nichols asks Tatum about Curry for the first 2 questions interviewing him instead of talking about his amazing night.

Smarts teammates played well enough for them to win last night. He also shot awful on offense. Tatum and Kemba and that random white guy who was hitting 35 footers carried the squad.

Smart hit an important three near the end of the game and was the main defender on Curry at the end when he couldn't keep up the level of dominance he had for most of the night. Of course Tatum was more important but Smart was still a.key player. The guy that defends the opponent's best player will get lit up vs a historically great scorer but that doesn't mean his contributions didn't matter.

That's terribly dishonest. Marcus guarded him the whole game and was getting tidal waved. The Celtics finally decided to trap every PnR in the 4th quarter at 35 feet. They lived with Dray being wide open in the middle and guys like bazemore being wide open on the wings. Smart shot 5/15 from the floor and gave up 47 points to his assignment. Is what it is.

Lol this. But he made one wide open 3 with no one within 20 feet around him though.

Where is bronbron23 iq with “Curry doesn’t really see many double teams”?

If you are going to accuse me of being dishonest you should be pointing out a lie. I did not and you could so you're just being stupid.
