Jaylen’s shooting issues go without saying, but this sub is not placing any blame on Tatum which is absolutely crazy to me.
In the beginning of the 4th quarter yesterday, the Celtics ran a lineup of Tatum-Oshae-Al-Hauser-PP. No KP, so no bonafide other scorer out there. Tatum didn’t shoot the ball at all outside of two free throws for over SIX MINUTES. The Magic pulled away in this stretch.
Tatum is sick, I get it, but at some point your superstar has to play like one and take the game over. He did not do that Friday.
Against Philly earlier this season, Tatum had a game where he took 14 shots. How does this happen?? It’s just lazy play and this team can’t have that if others aren’t going.
We can focus on Jaylen, he deserves a ton of criticism, but Tatum is absolutely at fault too.
