In order to go to the Eastern Conference Finals, Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the playoffs. Tatum was not happy with the way the game was officiated on the night his team won. After that, the NBA player for the Celtics made fun of officials in a Snapchat post.
Tatum shared a photo of Evan Mobley trying to make a three-point shot with his hand on his elbow. With just over five minutes remaining in the first quarter, Tatum made his first three-pointer, as shown in the picture. Post-captioned by Tatum:
“Then I get a tech.”
Jayson Tatum has been upset with the refs for not calling fouls against the Cavaliers since the first quarter. When he made his first basket of the game, he appeared to be furious because he had been fouled.
Later, in the last seconds of the second quarter, Tatum was given a technical foul. Just over four seconds remained on the shot clock when Jayson Tatum beat Darius Garland with a contested three-pointer. Tatum waved his hand at the official Tony Brothers after not receiving a call, and he instantly received a technical.
Tatum still appears to be unhappy about his technical foul even if the series is won. Nevertheless, NBA source Tim Bontemps then revealed that Tatum was fortunate not to receive a second technical foul and that Brothers dislikes hand-wave movements.
Jayson Tatum has a nearly triple-double game as the Celtics advance to the Eastern Conference Finals for the third straight year.
The Boston Celtics were the early favorites to win the NBA title in 2024 after the regular season, and they are still in that position following their 4-1 series victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Jayson Tatum was the best player on the floor in Game 5 of the series.
With just one help from magical double-digit numbers, Tatum came dangerously close to a triple-double. He scored 25 points while shooting 56.3% from the field and nearly 43% from beyond the 3-point arc. Throughout the game, he also grabbed 10 rebounds and dished out 9 assists.
However, Tatum’s postseason experience in 2024 hasn’t been without its challenges. His scoring averaged the lowest of the previous five seasons this season. With a 43.0% field goal percentage and a meager 28.1% 3-point percentage, he is only scoring 24.3 points a game on average.
The Celtics have a good chance of making it to the NBA Finals. But if he continued to struggle on the floor and become ineffective, his chances of taking home the championship would be jeopardized once more. He must figure out how to score more quickly. In addition, it appears that adhering to his entice and punish strategy from Game 5 is the wisest move at this time.
