00:00Hey, what's the biggest factor in why the Celtics are down two games to zero?
00:04Well, I just think there's a myriad of factors,
00:06but the biggest thing is that Tatum hasn't played like an all-star.
00:09I mean, you can't step up and play in the second round of the NBA playoffs
00:13and do what he's done the last two games,
00:16especially the other night, the second game, too.
00:19I mean, just a total no-show.
00:20I mean, we've seen it before with him.
00:23You wonder why it happens.
00:25I don't know if there's a reason.
00:26I think he's just too aloof at times.
00:28He's not locked in enough.
00:30He's not gritty enough.
00:31The people that I know around that know him kind of say the same thing,
00:36that at times he just kind of floats out there.
00:38And he saw it the other night.
00:39He was floating right down to the last play of the game.
00:42You know, he couldn't even get a shot off coming down to the floor.
00:45So he's got to play better.
00:48And I think he will.
00:49Usually he does when his back's against the wall,
00:52but we'll see if it's too late.
00:54I mean, you saw him in the Orlando series.
00:56You know, the stuff that he's hurt, I don't buy that.
00:58I mean, at the end of the Orlando series,
01:00he was just the best player in the playoffs the last three or four games
01:04in that series.
01:05So having said that, he's just got to lock in.
01:08I mean, I don't know what the problem is,
01:11if it's, you know, the matchups, whatever.
01:14It doesn't matter.
01:15You can't say I'm one of the best players in the world
01:17and go out and play like that in the playoffs.
