The Boston Celtics needed their top player, Jayson Tatum, to go toe-to-toe with Curry and assert his dominance on the sport's grandest stage. He failed to meet the challenge.
He failed to meet the challenge.
Tatum scored 23 points on 8-of-23 shooting with 11 rebounds and six assists. He also committed six turnovers. With the outcome hanging in the balance during a tightly contested fourth quarter, Tatum scored just three points on 1-of-5 shooting as Boston's offense imploded down the stretch. Tatum struggled on 2-point shots, hitting just four of his 15 attempts overall. Many of his drives to the basket ended with a missed shot."We could talk about turnovers and all the Xs and Os.
"Where is Jayson Tatum at the moment? Real talk, where is Jayson Tatum? I'm not talking about 25 points on 22 shots, or going 8-of-23 tonight. When is he going to arrive to the Finals and have that big moment? ... He doesn't have to talk about it or tweet about being a superstar. You're there. We're going to talk about. You're first team All-NBA. Show it."
