00:00And honestly, the Jason Tatum saga, now that it's gone on, buddy, get over it.
00:04What does that mean?
00:05I mean, the days leading up and then last night, even after the game,
00:09I get that he tore his Achilles.
00:11The Madison Square Garden court is the same court every other team has.
00:14This isn't bad turf in a football stadium.
00:16This traumatic, which I'm sure was traumatic,
00:19like, you think Cam Scatterboot's going to be scared to go back into Philadelphia?
00:22Well, first of all, are you, you ever play sports?
00:25Yeah, of course.
00:26You ever play professional sports?
00:27No, of course.
00:28You ever tear your Achilles?
00:29No, of course.
00:30You ever rehabbed from a torn Achilles?
00:31No, I've rehabbed from plenty.
00:32Okay, ever come back from a torn Achilles?
00:34No.
00:34So how the hell do you know what Jason Tatum is going through in terms of recovery?
00:39Okay, I don't know, but we've seen plenty of athletes tear their Achilles.
00:44I don't remember a single one of them talking about the place that they tore their Achilles
00:49the way Tatum has talked about Madison Square Garden.
00:52Do you think Tyrese Halliburton next year is going to be like,
00:54I'm really scared to play at Oklahoma City.
00:55It's going to be a traumatic experience.
00:57He won't.
00:58How many, Aaron Rodgers tried to come, as much as we mocked him, come back within the
01:04season, right back on the turf everybody hates.
01:06It's a little much now from Tatum.
01:08You know what I think is going on?
01:09Because I could take two sides here.
01:11I could say, look, he's in touch with his feelings, which is certainly a possibility.
01:14Or I can say, he's playing the game on you all.
01:18Oh, you think this is a rope-a-dope?
01:19I think this is a movie for the Celtics.
01:22Like, they've already won an NBA championship.
01:23They're disappointed about what happened last year.
01:25And their revenge on the New York Knicks is cinema.
01:29Now, I don't know if they're going to do it because they have to beat the Knicks, which
01:33there's no guarantee they're going to do.
01:34Right.
01:35And remember, before Tatum got hurt, they were down three games to one.
01:37But I almost feel between Jalen not playing last night, between all the comments that
01:42Jalen Brown has made, between Tatum talking about coming back to the garden, I almost
01:46feel like the Celtics are creating this Michael Jordan-like, and we took it personal.
01:52You know what I mean?
01:53I hate that.
01:53And they've got to go do it.
01:54Like, they've got to go complete it.
01:56But I get that vibe from all of them.
01:58He, Jason Tatum, is making it very hard to root for him in the postseason.
