On Christmas Day, Jayson Tatum was one of the most prominent performers, as the Boston Celtics defeated the Milwaukee Bucks thanks in large part to Tatum’s outstanding play.

After the Celtics beat the Bucks, the players of the team were interviewed. On a hectic basketball day, it seems someone made a mistake and created a graphic of Tatum’s post-game comments with things he hadn’t said at all, prompting Tatum to share the now-deleted graphic and say that he feels like Kevin Durant.

A fan shared the deleted graphic in the replies, which was the transcription of something Jaylen Brown said, not Tatum.

Tatum is coming into his own as arguably the best player in the NBA this year. Winning an MVP would be nice, especially as he will be the first American player to win it since 2018 James Harden. But his primary goal has to be winning the NBA Championship.

Should The Celtics Be Title Favorites?

The Boston Celtics have been a competitive team for years now. After making the Conference Finals with rookie Jayson Tatum in 2018, they have made the playoffs every year. Boston has made it to the Conference Finals twice more after 2018, along with their NBA Finals appearance from last season.

Given their success last year and how it has carried over to this season under a new coach, the Celtics will be buzzing to get to the playoffs and avenge their Finals loss.

No roster seems as complete as theirs but anything can happen in the NBA. Every team is just one injury away from having to start tanking. Hopefully, that won’t be the case for the Celtics and they can deliver on bringing Boston its first championship since 2008.
