Tatum's attitude of late that he's just another guy on the court and can step aside for Jaylen or KP if they have it going is great if/when they do have it going but he needs to be able to step back in and lead the team if they don't or if it's not enough (since Jaylen did in fact have it going against the Nugs but we lost anyway) because in the playoffs all it takes is a couple slips for everything to go off the rails as we've seen repeatedly

but it's still the middle of the regular season after a ridiculous February performance and the sky isn't falling yet

I just can't make myself believe in this era of Celtic teams no matter how good they look in the regular season. Once they prove they can win it all I'll come around but they haven't yet and should've more than once. It's hard to deny how good they look though.

idk the only year they looked like they should have was 2022, and even that year they were pretty bad until the all star break. plus the team is almost totally different than it was in that year

last year they shoulda made the finals but im not sure they would have won

you don't want to be the best anyway, big loser energy. not since KD Warriors has that team won. maybe it's time for a scheduled injury or two to get your team some scrap, grit, and "they didn't believe in us" mentality?

worked for PATRICK MAHOMES of the KAN CHIEFS, who has won two consecutive league championships on the back of "Nobody thought we could win."

Jimmy seems like he's got that Jordan-level competitive thing that makes him unpleasant to be around on any significant timescale. Maybe he's chill though.
