Haven’t started watching yet but just looking at the title I can see the similarity. I think prime PG was better. I like JT but for some reason I feel like he has taken a step back since that bubble year. I remember him going crazy back then
@@DJJ616 oh no I’m well aware of that what I’m trying to say is like he either stagnated or took a step back as in a minor step back not like off a cliff. I personally don’t watch the NBA anymore until the playoffs. I’m just basing it off what I remember (could be 100% wrong)
I don’t think comparing skill sets is the right way to compare players , ultimately if you have all that skill but don’t perform and put it to use , what’s the point? Pg could never get over the hump as a number two or as a 1 , 3 different teams 2 conferences Tatum at 25 led a team to the finals which pg at 34 hasn’t been able to Tatums playoff and regular season numbers are clearly better as well
Tatum has had better teams and is in a lebron less east. At the end of the day we expect the Celtics to make is and they have Jalen brown on that team too. Tatum has all the chips stacked in his favor and still hasn’t won a chip
@@laserhawk221 Celtics have only been expected to at least make the finals let alone win a chip in thr past 2 season Last year they lost a game 7 of the ecf and this year they’re in round 2 Also we’re talking about these players as individuals, the teams they’ve had isn’t as relevant here , ultimately Tatum has been the guy when his team has needed him whereas pg routinely no showed , let’s not forget the runs in okc when he was an mvp candidate in the regular season Tatums numbers are better and he’s had more success I don’t see a conversation here
@@DJJ616 you said of doesn’t show up and you also mentioned that JT has been to the finals. All I’m saying is that is easier to show up when your team is better and it’s easier to reach far in the playoffs when your team is better
PG could be better than Tatum in all aspects of the game, but the problem is PG doesn't have the mentality and chokes time after time in the playoffs. PG playoff chokes should be studied.
Wait...did y'all say Tatum was a better dunker? PG literally has a reel of his 360 windmill dunks...Tatum best dunks are strong one hand dunks over another forward.....yea that's not a close comparison. I'd argue PG over 30, post leg injury, after playing 48 minutes could put on a better dunkfest than JT ever could. That's not a big part of both of their games but my God that's not a close comparison
@@rohangupte3545 the celtics wouldnt be better with AD then tatum. Tatum makes the celtics go. Only casual who dont know basketball and who can only digest basketball thru statlines believe otherwise.
@@truth3412 So AD with the best defensive backcourt along with one of the best robins in JB and having KP in his front court being a defensive nightmare for opposing teams wouldn’t work . Big needs a good guard or wing to play alongside which JB is , KP would be the best front court partner for AD . Jrue and DWhite can still play their roles being the POA defenders along with spacing the floor. If teams were to double AD he has so much space to operate with . We saw how that Pelicans was Jrue and Rondo , along with Boogie before he tore his ACL . Ur telling me a better version of that team in the Celtics wouldn’t work with AD 💀💀💀
@@KxngAntTae exactly 🤦 they must haven’t watched a ounce of young PG the only thing him and Tatum had in common was taking tough shots and PG was taking way tougher shots when he was younger
Pg In prime played with the mvp in russ and lost in rd 1 back to back years , then ran to la to play with the reigning finals mvp and was terrible in the bubble miss me with that bullshit , his numbers in the playoffs are considerably worse than tatums

Since the bubble year Tatum has made 2 ecf and 1 finals
He’s averaged 28 a game in the playoffs the past 4 years
Facts. I thought he would've improved a lot by now. Still young but Tatum now is the same tatum as 3 years ago

@@patsnation1402 if you don’t watch the games then wtf are you saying ??
@@Nathan-zd8ew that’s what it feels like to me as well. Me personally it seems like brown looks a bit sharper than him
I have faith in a lot of players to actually win the finals instead of Tatum.

PG was in the ECF against a Peak LeBron and the Heatles. Tatum would get dogged by them
Don’t disrespect Tatum like that….. his ceiling is way higher. Jaylen brown is a better comp/ closer
Hell naw jb never gonna be even top 10
Went to the next Kobe to the next PG💔
Shai is amazing and exactly what a Pro wants as a Skim model
PG is so clearly the better 3 point shooter holy shit 😂🤦🏾♂️
Picking Tatum over Edwards is insane.
JT need to win the chip this season cause the disrespect is getting loud
didnt pg win a 3pt contest with kyrie

PG never had a stacked team in Indy like Tatum
Nobody respects Joe Mazzulla because he’s arrogant. He’s acting like he built the Celtics when he inherited that roster:
It’s really sad Joel is really a Tatum hater 😂💯💯
This man said the Celtics wouldn’t be better if u swap AD for Tatum?!?!? 😂😂😂😂
Stg the delusion these Celtics fan have no awareness. Tatum wouldn’t even come close to averaging the numbers AD did in that Nuggets series 😂😂😂
Yall just say anything. They definitely would not be

Joel saying yes so fast too anyone can go too Boston and replace JT gotta be disrespectful lol I love it JT is good not great
Booker makes the Celtics same maybe a little better I trust book more in the playoffs then Tatum
Mind you booker’s team was cooked in game 7 while tatum was dropping 51
They play nothing alike PG just started settling for more jump shots after his leg injury a young PG played way different than tatum
Young PG was more like a Jaylen Brown with insane handles he was way more relentless at attacking the rim back then fr.
@@KxngAntTae exactly 🤦 they must haven’t watched a ounce of young PG the only thing him and Tatum had in common was taking tough shots and PG was taking way tougher shots when he was younger
Tatum could be doing what Anthony Edwards is doing but he’s soft
Joel and drew are delusional Lebron on the Celtics would make them worse
😂😂😂😂😂
Lebron with that Celtics team in his early Cavs days would win at least 4 rings
Paul George is one of the greatest 3pt shooters of all time no way ya making this an argument when Tatum can’t even hit pull up 3s consistently 😂
If indy PG had this Celtics team, it's an easy finals run
