I've already stated that I'm not perfect and I think I stated public personality flaws. Those are fine too, but I've had enough of ESPN and Doris Burke telling me how perfect he is while all of the clear flaws are public knowledge. Also, you're right. I don't post often. I see how people with differing opinions are treated on this message board and I've always been weary of being alienated from a board I spend a lot of time on. I went for it last night, and, well the results were predictable. This message board needs to realize that and unpopular hot take does not make someone a troll. So you thought you had a hot take? Hot takes are really just people saying stupid Sh.t no one else will say ... Why? because it's stupid sh,t . I agree you had a hot take Reinert310 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I'm a celtics fan but I'm not a big Tatum fan. I think he's miscast. I liken him to James Worthy. I don't think he is a #1 guy on a championship squad. He did start playing defense this year. I don't like the Celtic team composition either. Brown and Tatum as foundation pieces isn't going to work out. As far as his personal life that take is crazy. He's been a millionaire since he was 19. The only thing he did wrong was attempt to have a long term relationship. He now has his mom living next door keeping the wolves at bay. His beard is also awful. The bubble has allowed several players to pursue some questionable hirsute styles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most impressive thing about Jason Tatum's game is his ability to push off with his off arm every time he drives to the basket and never get called for it.

almaman Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I think he does get away with the leading with his arm thing more than most because it seems so unthreatening as if he's protecting a birthday cake from the wind.

I didn’t watch the game tonight. I never made reference to the game tonight. I’ve only made reference to the content of your troll posts. You can play the victim as much as you want, but you’re not fooling anyone. When the only posts you EVER make on entire the board is to talk $h!t about something that, for all intents and purposes, has absolutely nothing to do with the Billikens, that makes you a troll.

TaLBErt Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 What a series! bummed it's over. I was hoping for a game 7. The good news is now Tatum can get back to St. Louis and help out the Saint Louis University basketball program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schasz Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Very happy the Miami Heat took down the Celtics. They have two KY players in Bam and Tyler who played a big role in the series win. Now they get to see if they can do against LBJ and the Lakers. Go Heat!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty pumped for that series! I really just don't want to see the Lakers win. I was rooting Celtics mostly because of Tatum (which I understand you disagree), but I also like to see Brad Stevens do well and think back on Rick's team whooping his butt. I do think that Miami is a better matchup to take down the Lakers. They have better size / strength / toughness to matchup with LeBron & AD. They can throw any of Igoudala, Crowder, or Butler at LeBron to slow him down and Bam is probably as close as you can get to a defender who can slow down AD. Miami will have to be wary of LeBron forcing Herro or Robinson into a switch because he'll cook those guys for sure. However, I think Miami will zone a lot and force the Lakers to beat them from 3 point range. I suspect keys to the series will be #1 how well Miami can rebound out of the zone, they may well get killed on offensive rebounds and #2 how well the Lakers shoot from 3, they're not a great shooting team (if I'm Miami I think ok with Rondo or Morris jacking 3s) and have guys who can be streaky (Danny Green). Lakers have more key players who older (LeBron, Rondo, Howard) so it will be interesting to see if the more compact playoff schedule in the bubble leads to any fatigue issues for them especially if the series goes 6 or 7 games.
