Did the Celtics give the keys to the wrong guy?

[UpAndComing]

I'm sorry it has to be said

As a Celtics fan, I've been thinking of this. Celtics prematurely gave the keys to Jayson Tatum, but his teammate Jaylen Brown is the best player on the Celtics

Jaylen Brown understands the moment and rises above it. You never question his intensity, effort, focus, and leadership. On top of that, Jaylen has more offensive variety to his game. With Tatum, I question that alot. Sorry but he reminds me of James Harden in the playoffs. If he's not getting the whistle, his intensity lowers considerably

And blame the Celtics for not giving the ball to Jaylen more in clutch moments instead of Tatum. The thing is Tatum is still young enough to turn this around, but.... Sorry, it had to be said

Brown didnt take em so no

 

[KidJSoul]

Idk. But I do think Jaylen Brown should get the ball more in the clutch.

But then at the same time, Jaylen Brown struggles with late game free throws

Nah Tatum is your Batman, he’s a better overall player than Brown but it’s close

 

[ALonelyDad]

yes, the keys should have been given to Grant Williams

 

[Premeditated]

neither are THAT guy

cant trust the ball in either of their hands in a close series against elite defense

These guys are like a more successful version of Antoine/pierce celtics just chucking the ball up.

Last year vs the then defending nba championship bucks in game 6, at milwaukee, tatum scored 46 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists to force a game 7 and avoid elimination

He proved to be clutch in crunch time

The one concerning thing with Tatum is his midrange is kinda lacking. So if the 3 ball not dropping it looks really bad out there

Celts just need to put smart on the bench and close with brogdon and white

Finals against the Warriors showed me Tatum mentally weak and when it comes to who can produce when game is tight its Brown from what I've noticed. Tatum will have a smaller defender and settle for a contested step back or jumper rather than attacking rim.

If you watch carefully Tatum checks out when he doesn't get calls or is in a shooting slump it's Brown who then takes over.

Absolutely. Y’all should trade Tatum as soon as possible

Tatum is mentally weak, has all the talent in the world though
