I don’t wanna see Perk anywhere near the parade!
Good because there won't be one.
@@RenzellTlmao
He ain't welcome back in Boston. I'm fine with him being critical, but he has become a freaking clown with his takes about the Tatum and the Celtics.
I don't want him anywhere near Causeway with all this junk they talking.
He can vacation with his Knicks in Cancun
Imagine scoring 36 in a game and the media still tells you to "step it up" 🤦🏾♂
Tatum can imagine it. He said himself he's not satisfied with his play even tho he got 36
IM SAYING
@@IBlackSanta yeah of course but nobody gives him any credit whatsoever. Youve got everyone talkin trash about the celtics and tatum even though they came up massive in overtime and completely smothered them and took over. People wanna talk trash about his play in the fourth its okay but lets not act like he didnt straight away redeem that by singlehandedly outscoring the pacers in ot
They will never let these players rest mentally the owners have friends that run media! Why not create your own career mode in real life!😔
Did you see jokic and Murray in game 7
When RJ is giving Tatum credit you know the hate is ridiculous😂
Perk saying what everyone is saying. Celtics should have never went OT
@@erraticentertainment pacers are the #2 offense in the league. If you thought the celtics was gon blow em out, you dont know ball.
@@yaboytroy4557 1th seed vs 6th seed. u lack iq to understand
@@yaboytroy4557 Celtics should not be in an OT. We talking about post season and ur talking about the season🤣🤣Never said it should be a blowout. Reading is fundamental until u learn to read do not respond lil bro. Stay in school
@@erraticentertainment its the conference finals in case you didnt notice, teams are gonna compete. Regular season habits do carry over to the postseason, its how most ppl make their predictions. Again u dnt know ball so stop talking cus you sound dumb.
Dude focuses on scoring vs GSW in the finals. "He needs to be a better playmaker!"
Becomes a better defender, rebounder and passer and scores 30+ = "He needs to be a better scorer".
Okay yall. Even non Boston fans are shaking their heads at this stuff lol
he wants tatum to be perfect while his basketball career sucks
@@nsp74😂😂
Boston fans have officially disowned Perk
Perk has such terrible takes. Dude is straight up jealous. Tatum was awesome last night and Brown was also pretty darn good. We need both to win a championship.
most definitely, he better not even think of celebrating with us when we win
@@LifeIsSlimyall delusional. Tatum was folding in clutch minutes let’s keep it real. If it’s not for JB we lose that.
@@Mayancinnamonyea and Tatum won us the OT. Brown saved us from the loss, Tatum got us the win. Appreciate both of them.
@@Mayancinnamon Tatum won us the OT and he smothered Haliburton on his last pt attempt. On top of putting up good numbers. He made 2 mistakes down the stretch, a bad pass, and he missed a fadeaway 2.
if this was Ant, he would be getting so much praise 😂
ANT doesnt have a history of choking, and hes actually really young at 22 unlike Tatum whos been described as a youngster for the last 6 years
lol
@@Nostalgia9478 because ant has only played 3 playoff series but people are already calling him MJ
@@Nostalgia9478tatum doesn’t have a history of choking either, he had a fractured wrist in 2022 and rolled his ankle in game 7 last year
@@Nostalgia9478Ant shot 6-24 in a game 7 and people were praising him stop it
@@Nostalgia9478 What history? Tatum dropped 51 (game 7 record) in game 7 last season and got injured against the heat in another game 7 at the start after outplaying "Playoff Jimmy". Luka is 1 year younger, where is his "pressure"? Jimmy Butler is almost 35 with no ring, he must be garbage then.
Solid number 36/12/4 on 46% is solid number this agenda they have against the Celtics is gross
he did play for the pacers tho in the 4th but I agree this hate is outrageous atp
@@kalyankonduru5831 he came right back in ot tho. Yeah jalen saved his bacon but he made up for it straight away so i dont think we can hate on his clutch performance after that. All im seeing is " if they dont win that game tatum would get destroyef by the Media ". They won the game and they still are on his nuts
@@kalyankonduru5831he definitely struggled in the 4th and he deserves criticism for that but the hate is getting ridiculous
Dmn I finally said he played a good game minus some in the 4th and others are still saying he sucks.
It's weird because he was making a lot of shots in a wrong and then he went a looooong stretch without making anything. It was an ugly performance.
Perk is a clown
I’ve always hated this mentality. What’s the point in doing better if people are just going to raise their expectations and keep criticizing you anyways?
You don’t raise your level for other people’s approval. You do it for yourself, your family, your team. Who cares what anyone else says or thinks.
@@MultipleMike-tl2ty There’s nothing to admire about personal pride. Pride is foolish. Only work harder if there’s a tangential reward in it for your efforts. Working harder for others if it’s not to your benefit is how the system keeps up opposed and how the people on top stay on top
That’s why I never get better at anything.
girl math has taken over 🤣
But the media glazes ant for a win or go home situation shooting 6/24 having 18 points
That's because of the media's hatred towards the Nuggets, in particular Jokic. A lot of ignorant racism went into that. No matter how hard they deny it.
49 wouldn't have been enough points for Perk....
🤣🤣
Perk thinks he has the right to talk like he can beat JT in a 1v1😂
@@IMvictory83721-0 Tatum
He doesn't need to be scoring 50. Perk is a joke.
So does basically everyone else……they all seem to think they can talk big and hate on players when they don’t really know anything
Perk played on one championship team with the Celtics and acts like that makes it ok for him to hate on Celtics whenever he wants.
You mean he got carried by the big 3. You can replace Perkins with a potato sack and Boston still would have won that chip
@@masstarvation lol
@@masstarvationeven tho he’s annoying now, him going down in that finals was huge for LA.
Perk needs his own segment - “Worst Takes”. Terrible player and terrible commentator. The guy is a joke.
Perk not welcome in boston fr biggest celtics hater
He's salty he got traded away for a bag of chips.
He spitting facts. U can't be trash and be the face of the league
@@terrortstarantulas1270 So he is salty for making an obvious observation and criticizing them the way everyone else is lmaoooooo
@@erraticentertainment so wait tatum is trash is that what you telling me?
@@ItzSincerexD if he playing like trash then yes
I dare a person who average 5.4 pts over his career criticize a guy who scored more than anyone on the court with 36. Pacers getting swept. And you mfz still will hate JT Money
I dare a person who never played in the nba to criticize an nba player who avg 5.4 points or any bench in leauge that absolutely dog any average hooper anytime anyday
you nailed it

Perk starting to sound so stupid
Starting to sound so stupid? Lol. He's always been that way.
Starting? He’s always been this way.
This isn’t a new development
the standard tatum is held to is absurd lmao
Does he want to be the face of the league or not?
@@R3Y1023 not even lebron has been expected to put up 50 points a night lmao
@@cohenhu9459 They are holding him to such standard for what he has said previously. You can't be the face of the league if ur not even the best player on the team. JB a better player overall. Tatum becomes trash when the lights are the brightest. Tatum feels the pressure fs
@@erraticentertainmentSo...he has to average 50 in the playoffs?
@@erraticentertainment Ya'll people have poor listening comprehension, lol. He said he's "humbly one of the best players in the league". He didn't say he say he was the best.
When he drops big numbers in the playoffs, ya'll clowns are quiet. You go out from your woodwork and wait until they struggle or lose to show up, lol
Man, did they watch the game? How come they're ignoring that he was +20, and every time he was on the bench were the moments the Pacers made a run to tie the game or go ahead. And then, at the very end of regulation, Mazulla decided to give the ball to DWhite instead of him. How's that Tatum's fault?
RJ is right, they wouldn't be criticizing another superstar with those numbers as they do with JT. They HATE Tatum and they're not afraid to show it anymore.
He should've had 50 is crazy 🤦🏾♂️
He's demanding 50 like he was a player that could ever score 50...I would understand from a guy who was a scorer, an elite player but not from the guy who wasn't even the 6/7 best player on the team when he was a champion. Perk talks like he was a great player criticising other players that are better than he ever was, and he never even did during the games half of the things he demands to current players.
He won a ring and telling Jayson if he wants it he gotta wake up. Shouldn't have gon to OT. Perk speaking facts. No one would criticize him if he played amazing.
U talking like the other team not pro too@@erraticentertainment
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Big baby even better Dan perk
Ask Brunson, Mitchell, shai & embiid what happens if you score 50...your teammates arent getting involved.
A year ago, they said tatum needed to become a playmaker....he becomes a playmaker. Tatum needs to score 50.
yeah right
Thank you RJ for checking Perk on his idiocy.
Media logic: The Celtics should win every game by 20 and Tatum should average 45 😂
Then they would get criticized for not being battle tested they literally cannot win
You’re wrong. Because then they’d be criticized for having the easiest path to the chip and they have “NO EXCUSES!” I’d bet my last dollar even if they win they’d be talked about having the easiest road to the top of all time.
yall are never satisfied. now if he wouldve scored 50 u wouldve said he shouldve score 60
JT has a +20 plus minus in a game that went to OT and we won by 5. Media hate is ridiculous
perk never was or is even half the player jayson tatum is
Imagine scoring 36 points and then outscoring the whole Indiana pacers roster in overtime and then saying he’s not clutch and he needs to step up🤦♂️
Perk don’t be coming out here to Boston, you are not welcome
This is unreal. I don't know what the agenda is right now against Tatum and the Celtics, but to say any player should have scored 50 is insanity.
Tatum was the best player on the court last night. It's not even a freaking debate. Stop looking just at points scored you casual pathetic analysts.
4 pts a game, youre complaining about a guy scoring 36?
RJ couldn't even keep a straight face when answering Perk's question
He looks disgusted with perk the whole video man watch his facial expressions throughout the whole thing lol
Perk and rashan mccants should do a worst take podcast
Perks whole personality at this point is hating on the Celtics. Stop it. Get some help.
“He shouldve had 50” 💀
Jaylen Brown started the gm 6\7 in the first and went 4\13 the last 3 quarters. He was also no good in the 4th quarter and had 2 unforced turnovers and also blew layups. He nearly cost us the game, because his ability to score with Tatum off the court diminishes and he forces bad shots, doesnt create and cant handle well enough to be a floor general. That 3 was him redeeming himself for nearly selling and his inability to hold leads as the 1a in that scenario. Not 1 mention of how this team consistently loses leads when they dont have Tatum's gravity to create spacing and all those 1v1s and 1vNones.
I love jaylen but you’re not wrong here, but honestly he’s much better as the 1A with porzingis in the lineup and Tatum on the bench
@@emdeezy7529 I love him too but he needs to understand hes best in transition, scoring/attacking off the catch. He will start most gms off hot playing to his strengths & then decides to get into his bag of turnovers and shot hunting.
The amount of criticism this man receives while his team has been winning is crazy… the clerics literally have the best record in the playoffs
Tatum has too much class to just say F-k Perk.
One day he just gonna snap on them 😂😂😂
If tatum did this with a lakers uniform the glaze would be WILD AF
I can’t remember the last time a 64-18 team who is the number 1 team not only In the east but in the NBA who only has 2 losses in the playoffs and is in the eastern conference finals was doubted and criticized this much as the Celtics are
It’s cause they choke . However I do agree it’s very unnecessary jt and jb are still young lol it’s not like they early 30s .. this team is the best team they have gad since jt and jb been there .. honestly they should’ve won it all 2019 (considering kd got injured with gsw) with kyrie but his chemistry with the fans and even with teammates was not there (besides kyrie , they didn’t know their true roles)& Kai could feel it and the media seen it and Kai gave up in that last series .. he basically had 1 foot out the door .. he’s a way better leader now and has learned .. I hoped it’s Mavs vs Celtics
Tatum wants to be the *"Face of The League"* he better be ready to take all the smoke just like what LeBron did.
Wait. Perk said we are talking about right now but continues to judge Tatum on previous years. Like pick a path Perk
No one on the 07-08 Celtics scored 50 on the Atlanta Hawks who are inferior to them or at any point of their championship run lmao Perk sit down
I like that little smirk RJ had when he said that to Perkins. Just trying to get under his skin, lol.
He knows he is a better player than Perk can ever hope to be
"listen timeout man hold on sit tight" 😂
Bruh if JT hadn't got 36 pts Celtics never would have made it to overtime to begin with
Tatum could averge 50 for a series, and they would still find a way to talk down on him. Ant shot 6-24 and got carried in a game 7 by his team and didn't hear anything. Let that had been Tatum! The haters and roaches would've came out the cracks.
Dude said he needed 50 😂😂😂. The guy making $300 million took us to overtime. JT took over overtime. That sounds like a pretty good formula to me.
Let’s not forget this is a team sport. It takes a team win and a team to lose.
I used to be a big basketball fan but haven't been able to watch much the past couple years. Why does it seem like the media wants the Celtics to fail and won't give them credit is it just me? Doesn't seem like if I'm reading these comments but what is the issue with the media and Celtics anyone?
they be on tatum nuts heavy man lmao
Homie dropped 36 and 8 points in over time and he said he shoulda dropped 50 get that big mf off ESPN 😂😂😂 I do agree he needs to be better in fourth quarters that’s just about it
The man put the team on his back against the Heat, had a broken ankle but still tried to play it out, had a great year this year, but ESPN (Mainly Perk) wants to try to put more pressure on him. Anthony Edwards struggled yesterday and they said nothing
I completely agree with perk. Tatum is not a closer at all.
It's gonna take Ant embarrass him in moments in the finals for JT to wake up. By then, they'll be cooked.
Perk's attitude towards Tatum and the Celtics is like of a disappointed parent who has an underachieving son (in his eyes) that is not living up to his expectations of what he and the Celtics can be.
Both Ant and Luka have had stretches where they’ve struggled during these playoffs, yet the media praises them constantly. Meanwhile, Tatum is averaging 25/10 and has led the Cs to a 9-2 record so far in the playoffs, yet he is criticized every single game. This is absolutely ridiculous at this point. It’s impossible to reach the standards all these media personalities are setting for him. They expect him to drop 50 every game and to go 16-0 in the playoffs. Also, how is Kendrick Perkins still employed.. he has THE worst takes I’ve ever seen.
He took off most of the 4th quarter and was terrible when he actually decided to get involved. Huge in OT but if they lose in regulation Tatum would get crushed for this performance
Im just here to listen to the media bash the celtics that had a 14 game lead in the east, 3rd best offensive rating of all-time, 2nd best defensive rating, best record in the playoffs by at least two games, undefeated playoff road record bcuz thats the thing to do in the media apparently 🤷🏿♂️
I know what Perkins is doing: he wants to bash Tatum so it "motivates" him. Remember, Perkins works for the Celtics organization, he isn't a fool. After the Celtics win, he'll then say "I knew he had it in him"
Getting to the ECF every year is not winning.
It's actually sad to see a former player (Paul Pierce's screen setter to be more precise) turn into a new Skip Bayless, you could tell he enjoys hating/constantly adding pressure on some players quite a lot
Tatum was a +20 in a game they won by 1, whatever Perk’s smoking I need some of it
I hate this. While I agree that Tatum has been up and down in big moments at times he was clutch and was the reason they won last night. It’s fine to have an opinion whether I agree with you or not but when it’s not consistent your opinion is already invalid. I’m tired of seeing star players have a bad game and the media hates and then going back on it once that star has a big game soon after. These debates get worse and worse every stinking year 👎🏼
The media should really consider there's something called team strategy and not 'Individual JT' strategy
Simple he played great through 3 quarters. Had a terrible 4th. He did leave points on the board. He being held to a standard Cavs/pacers are easiest matchups possible
Celtics are 9-2. Tatum had 36. Shows you how ESPN is quick to villianize the Celtics.
Celtics won but Celtic bettors lost, not close to covering spread. Perk speaks for the bettors😂😂
Tatum gets Lebron criticism without the lebron praise😂
That's insane
I get where KP is coming from
JT wide open 3 to tie with 30s to go, miss
Haliburton, turn over
JT jumper from FT line, miss
Nembhard doesn't call time out, turn over.
If Haliburton not kicking the ball, Nembhard called time out, we'd be talking about how JT wasn't clutch and lost Game 1.
Tatum is not scoring 50 every night. Every one is not having a star night.
He still put up 20 something the 2nd game after starting slow.
He contributed. They won.
Perkins is ridiculous. That man is not allowed anywhere near Boston when that parade is happening this summer. Man is actually a disgrace to former Celtics
Yall swear Rick Carlisle isn’t a better coach than mazulla. Rick Carlisle Is a proven championship coach. That toook a heat squad down. Pat Riley and erik spo…
I promise I'm good with pretty much everyone ESPN puts on.. except Perk.. he can go.
Why not talk about how the pacers chocked the last few minutes 🤔
I get what Perk is saying. Tatum missed some bunnies. He rushed some shots. Had he not done that the Cs would have put the Pacers away. RJ brought up the counter argument that Tatum scored 8 in OT. I’m siding with Perk. Tatum has to be a little more patient. He does everything else right. Tatum has to shoot the ball a tiny bit better which is difficult for him because he takes tough shots. I don’t want any hate. I’m just saying that Perk is right about Tatum being asleep on a few possessions. Not all but a few.
Jesus man why is media like this?
2:49 what’s going on here??? 😂 😂 😂
At the end of the day my boy gonna get the ring and that fat paper.
This segment was hilarious cuz a good portion of it was everyone basically saying “Perk, c-chill out the man scored 36 points off 46% with 12 boards n 3 steals”💀
it's clear Perk still isnt over being traded back in 2011 🤣
Perk don't even know what he is talking about...he is full of sh...right now
There is a world where both things can be true: Tatum to play a monster game AND to be shaky in stretches of the game. But cutting his game up into ribbons is like moving the goalposts every single time. Guy just can't win. Granted, he could play better.
Jaylen brown is the best player on the celtics. Lets start w that.
you dont even believe this😂
6\7 in 1st qtr. 4\13 through qtr 2-4...Get off the drugs
Agree 100%
Is anyone else getting tired of Perk? I think he has trash analysis.
People getting mad Celtics haven’t won a close game. They are now madder that the Celtics didn’t blow out the opponent every game
The critique of Tatum would be fair if the same people who hated on him ranked him fairly amongst the league but most of these dudes got Tatum ranked 8-10th.
perk bout to start getting boo'd if he shows up at the garden
2:47 funny as hell lol
Imagine being 9-2 in the playoffs started slow but from the last 5 games been averaging 30 and 10 and it’s still ain’t enough imagine blowing out your opponents and it’s because u suppose to imagine whining about not winning close games and still doing imagine just winning in general and still tryna find a faught
Made a finals at 23, recorded most points ever in a game 7 against that years mvp, haven’t even seen a game 6 this year. Not too much
BRUUHH the analyst who are critiquing him played like shiiiii when they was in the league. Perk was not the enforcer he claimed to be that was KG
Perk lowkey mad because he know they gonna win the chip
Ik a lot not goin to admit it but Tatum is a superstar like it or not because his expectations are set so high he drops 30 in a game and it’s not good enough. He drops 36 in a game he should go for 50 like wat 😂
Perk is insane
Tatum was missing huge shots in the clutch. On paper it looks like he had a good game, but he seriously didn't. He woke up in OT, yes.
Edwards 19pts on 6/16 Wolves lost at home....lets see if "the new face" gets the Tatum treatment with his disappearing act
Boston got soooooooo lucky last night 🍀
Tatum, first team all NBA
