Transcript
00:00did you guys see that there's this podcast right now with uh all the nba dads have you seen this
00:06any clips yeah it's a great uh lavar ball lavar ball dad d-wait senior and uh and jason tatum's
00:12yes no jason is it tatum or brown i think it's jason tatum's well the one who went viral yesterday
00:18was tatum's dad okay i thought jaylen's brown that uh like family might have been but it might
00:24be tatum's good so jason tatum's dad was uh on this podcast and they were asking about who's
00:30gonna win and you know lavar ball he's picking the timberwolves because that's what he does
00:35remind you anyone no he didn't five what's i got to do with that thing okay so it's called ultimate
00:44dads ultimate dad unplugged the co-host is dwayne wade senior lavar ball and quentin marcellus
00:50brown senior the father of jaylen brown so they had tatum's tatum's dad was a guest okay so tatum's
00:56dad was on the show oh by the way that can't be beef if if both fathers are chilling in
01:02on the show
01:02that i don't think i think that's a like i don't i think sometimes you can hate your situation or
01:10not appreciate what the organization organization is doing it doesn't mean you have any animosity
01:16towards the players one has nothing to do with the other i think it's professional i think it's
01:21just professionally ready to move on you've done the same thing since you were both 19 years old
01:24that's not i mean it's not i think it's yeah i think i think jaylen brown's like i want to
01:29be
01:29away from this day i'm never going to get out of his shadow that's it i don't think i don't
01:32think he
01:33hates him as a guy or hey he's just like i think i'm as good as him i'm never but
01:37i think some of the
01:37comments sometimes get misconstrued as that so when you say he played a part hey what so why you
01:44haven't considered trading tatum yeah well he didn't say that i'm saying like he never like
01:50i'm saying when that was all going down he could have gone to brad stevens and goes well have you
01:55guys ever considered trading tatum for yannis why is it always me right and obviously the answer is no
02:00because jason tames our sweet baby boy we love him he's the golden child but again that the problems
02:06that i think boston had with those two was the boston's own doing by how they treated the situation
02:13like you think about where the heat were and they had those three stars right
02:21it's like they almost had to fight lebron to get him to take over right like you never had that
02:31situation that they're having because one the heat didn't do it right they wanted chris bosh to feel
02:39just as important in fact they would yell hey shoot the damn ball but for some reason
02:46boston has said tatum's our guy everybody else no matter what you do it's second number two right
02:53so but the thing that's been interesting is the media has kind of treated boston like oh they think
02:57boston's going to be the same they're going to be fine and i'm like well this guy hasn't gone
03:03through a season yet uh off of his achilles and his running man is now paul george who is paul
03:08george
03:10so i'm just wondering like everybody just thinks that's going to be awesome and tatum's dad was asked
03:17about who he likes in the east and he said i think i might say new york is going to
03:23run it back
03:24because right now the celtic roster is bleep cheeks cheeks yeah and i'm like wow now keep
03:34finally somebody said it but keep in mind that's jaylen brown's dad it's jason tation tatum's dad said
03:39it not jaylen oh they asked him about it tatum's dad okay and my tatum's dad said the celtic roster
03:54right but i just think that when he said they were when they when he said the two of them
03:58were
03:58on the podcast i'm like this could go either two ways either they could get along great and everybody
04:05misjudged the situation or they could go at each other and everybody thought that's exactly how it
04:09was but they no all right i just think it's fascinating like his dad's basically telling you
04:13that roster ain't no good that they just got rid of they just got rid of a a a an
04:19mvp candidate and
04:20they replaced him with paul george and the rest of that roster stinks but give him this
04:24i we hate them you know we both hate the celtics he nick fans hate the celtics but
04:31give them a benefit of doubt last year a lot of people thought the same thing when tatum was hurt
04:34and they were the two seed well because they weren't giving brown did they have that guy anymore okay
04:40cool tatum did play half a season or at least a third of the season it's more like a third
04:46of the
04:46season but he was putting up good numbers in the third of the season he didn't quite look like
04:50himself though dude but he was okay look at the numbers that he that he put up as a guy
04:56who was
04:57not even himself yet but here's the thing brad stevens even came out last year and said that we
05:03thought our season was fool's gold even with it being that much so now you're just say oh fool's
05:07gold's gonna happen again with a guy who's with them getting rid of a guy as talented as jalen brown
05:12was for paul george vlad there's a big difference in i don't know vlad like i i mean i just
05:17think i'm i
05:18agree with what you're saying but i just give maybe i'm giving um joe mazula more credit than
05:24than most people are i didn't think he was going to be a good coach and he's completely surprised me
05:29as how well of a coach he is so that's why i'm not gonna i'm not saying they're gonna you
05:34know
05:34win the east or anything like that but i just don't want people just kind of like
05:38you know sweeping them on under the rug don't think not thinking that they're gonna be a uh a
05:43problem here's the other thing there's a difference in coming back and not necessarily having to beat a
05:49guy but it can pick your spots because you have that running mate right whatever you think of the
05:55two of them right tatum and so a lot of these games were just standing over on the side while
06:02offense was going the other way he can't do that now he's going to be the guy it's going to
06:07have to
06:07go through him so is his numbers going to be as good without having that guy or is paul george
06:13going to be that guy that keeps the heat off him definitely not because he's paul george right
06:18so like yeah i think there there were a lot of teams that went into games saying
06:23let's make sure we game plan keeping jalen brown out of this and make tatum beat you
