Here we go again. The inferiority complex starts to kick in It's not inferiority complex, it's the truth. Here's what happened. I was told not to call JT a superstar because he's not a superstar and me trying to convince the posters here will not speed up the process. 24 hours later, JT was named All-NBA 1st team. Reason why this board is divided is because some of the posters here refuse to adhere to the truth. Same thing happens when the discussion is about politics. The truth is blurred here.

There are posters who clearly dislike Jayson Tatum. But they have no choice but to pretend to like JT because he plays for the Celts. Here's my question, would any of you guys here trade Jayson Tatum for Brandon Ingram? I can't figure it out, since KG we've clamored for a superstar! We Finnaly get one in Tatum, and all some people want to do is tear him down! Maybe they're trying to run him to the Lakers!

Lots of bitching here about Brown Cabby was all i seen Who's leading the Celtics in turnovers? Tatum by far Either this website is screwed today or the country i'm in is/ I was one of them i think. At least yesterday I was. But yea tatum decision making under pressure is a turnover waiting to happen. Can you blame Tatum for turning it over when he had 9 assists. He was passing the ball. JB had 4 turnovers, less than JT, but JB also only had 1 assist. JT was making the right passes, but it's also true he turned the ball over a lot. That's part of being an all-around player.

When you can't say Jayson Tatum is a superstar, that's dislike. Every NBA fan today will acknowledge that Jayson Tatum is already a superstar. no is not. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Sounds like you want to impose thoughts and opinions on people. Stop it. For the record, are you saying Jayson Tatum is not a superstar? I'm asking because I'm not sure where you stand on the issue. Only the Admin made it clear that he thinks JT is not a superstar.

Here's my question, would any of you guys here trade Jayson Tatum for Brandon Ingram? It's not that they don't like Tatum as much as they seem to think there's some competition between him and Brown. So there's a weird yeah but what about thing going on. Is it a competition between Tatum and Brown, or is it a competition between posters who want their man to be better, just for the simple fact that they can say they, or I was right!! I'm not excluding myself from that group!!

This JT vs. JB thing started when Kyrie left.
Who would be the #1 option after the superstar PG, Kyrie, left the Celts?
That was back in 2019-20.
What has JT and JB done since that time?
I think we have a clear winner.
JT is a 3-time All-Star and has made All-NBA 1st team and 3rd team.
JB only has 1 All-Star appearance so far.
It's not like we don't have a clear winner.

Dont let another poster cement your position against a player because you dont like the poster and they like the player. Its a weird spot to be in, youll find yourself rooting against team success. Who cares who was right/wrong. Who said what when. The past doesnt matter.

You underestimate both the talent level and leadership skills of Brown as you have from day 1 ...
I give you shit on Tatum cause you're a dope for pushing the Superstar stuff when we all know and agree upon his talent level. Noone here needs you to tell them how good he is but to think this team falls apart if he's out is lunacy. Did you not see Brown score 40 when Tatum was a ghost? And don't give us that "but we lost" BS ... it's irrelevant because others didn't assist to get the win that night.

LOL ... let's clear one thing up.
Tatum making 1st Team All-NBA does not make him a "Superstar." He got that spot by DEFAULT because Embiid was moved from 1st Team to 2nd since he was a Center and Jokic got the C spot locked up with votes.
Riding that as justification is as dumb as you wanting Fultz over Tatum!

Yeah, they should kick Booker off and add Embiid!

Yup, Brown scored 40 and the Celts still lost because Tatum was a ghost. Remember Game 4 when JB was a ghost and Tatum scored 31 points? Didn't the Celts win that game easily? I don't underestimate Jaylen Brown's talent. JB is an All-Star caliber player. JT is a superstar. So why force JB to be a superstar when clearly JB is just an All-Star. JT is a legit superstar.

JT making 1st team is just one of many supporting facts to JT's superstar status. Just get to the point, is JT a superstar or not? It's a simple question. Why do you have to make all these lame excuses.

Actually, if you replaced Booker with Embiid, you would have the 5 best players in the game today!! Sorry Durant, it's an age thing!

There is clear evidence that JT is a superstar and the Admin won't admit it because it will make him the loser in the JT vs. JB debate.
I understand why the Admin is giving me a hard time about JT.
It's like Trump trying to scare the GOP into submission.
But the majority here already declared JT a superstar.
Does that mean the Admin will adhere to the truth?
Of course not!
