Jayson Tatum Got That Tough Love From His Pops

[Lord Beasley]

100% it's because he has a better hairline

I think it was @Raquinotj who posted the link before but Tatum pops wasn’t always around & supporting him financially. That’s in part why you get the “Me & Mom” struggled stories. Pops only came around for basketball activities

JT literally said that in the OP video...

It took me a while to find out Jayson dad was around, because all u hear and see is mom did everything from the media

Wish he talked about his dad a lot more in the national media outlets more..

Tatum case is the rare time this actually works most kids go the exact opposite

Joe Jackson type dynamic. Worked him hard, embarrassed him and strained their relationship, but he wouldn’t be where he is today without him.

Looks like they are on good terms now though

Agreed

But

If your son don't want to play for you

And instead would rather rep your rival and beat you


Then his pops was probably to much and the relationship been strained since he was a teen.

I get they cool now, but Pops was doing to much

He also never had a bed at his pops house growing up.

As black men we gotta start realizing that it's not "soft" to show your son love and affection

Tatum: I didnt have a place to stay at my dads place when I was growing up.

Coli brehs: Jayson should give more props to his father for being there for him.

Probably the same place.

If Tatum had more positive things to say about the man, he'd say them.

Coli nikkas gonna end up with kids that hate them and don't even know it

I had a father that was tough on me and I hated it at times but he also knew when to pull it back and showed plenty of love especially when I lived up to expectations. It helped that my mom is AA and told him we ain't doing that West Indian parent shyt in this house

 

[NYC Rebel]

not feeling the black daddy bash-a-thon that turned into.

His dad could’ve been better but I didn’t like the interview

JT plays soft as hell for his pops to have coached him
