I followed him when he was a California bear and I liked his game even then and I have deep and high respect for him not just since he came to Boston but the incredible things he does for this city as well if some NBA players weren't so selfish maybe they could do things for their city as well! Take note NBA, this is how a real NBA player acts on the court and off, when you give to your own City your actions speak louder than words! If you don't know him the way we know him then maybe you should check him out before you make your comments! 🙏😔

Proud to have him as both a Celtic and a leader in the community! However, no more taking plays off on defense. Everything else is coachable and he is just beginning to scratch the surface of his potential as a player.

@@screamingdizbuster7722 absolutely agree with you and I really think the pressure is going to be taken off of him and Tatum as the only scoring solution at the end of the game which will help him and Tatum relax better and not feel the pressure of having to win the game themselves

@@ritchievernon8099 Having Zinger as a low-post option could be massive for us. We've now seen Rob practicing mid-range jump-shots on social media. I'd like to see him develop a baby hook, as well. All this will ease pressure on JT and JB. Let's hope D. White will be allowed to be the only guy bringing the ball up the court and initiating offensive sets. No point in wearing out JT and JB doing that and then making questionable decisions while everyone else impersonates statues. Pass the ball and move without it and we won't have to settle for so many poor shots.

Over paid

@kobyschechter8163 5 ай бұрын

Every athlete is overpaid to play a child’s game. No matter the sport. As a huge hockey fan, people say all the time “hockey players don’t make shit.” The highest paid NHL player will be Auston Matthews starting in 2024-25. He signed a 4 year 53 million dollar contract (13.25 million a year) to stay with the Toronto Maple Leafs until 2028. 53 million is A LOT of money no matter what way you slice it. Matthews also has endorsement deals so he makes more than one might think. When Connor McDavid (Edmonton Oilers) signs his next big contract (not eligible to re-sign until July 2025) he will definitely get at least 8 years 120 million if not MORE. McDavid will have made well over 200 million by the time his career is over just from hockey. He also has a bunch of endorsements.
