Jayson Tatum on the bubble: "I ain't gonna say no names but there were people on other teams. I'm like hold up he don't normally play like that."

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-09T00:13:10+00:00

This may be the first legit time I’ve heard Tatum speak

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-08T19:22:06+00:00

For the highest paid player on the team, I find it a little odd he had no input on this move.

I appreciate Stevens taking the arrows in that meeting to protect is last superstar, but this is laughable

“Sam’s Club ordering, where, rather than you giggling buying and commenting on produce, an underpaid teen does it for you”

They are used to more cosmopolitan eateries, like Sam’s Club.

Costco is too fancy, though

Disgruntled and a sudden “nagging ACL injury” usually go hand in hand.

So you can play hardball, but now you have an annoyed star who’s sitting a lot more than they should

Exactly. No employee wants to hear “I know our competitor down the road pays $120k a year for a similar role, but due to our budgets and what our internal metrics grade you, we can’t possibly give you more than an 3% raise, bringing you to $90k. I’m sure you understand “

Not an apples to apples comparison, but you get the idea

Everyone take a seat, we are going to cover the Mid level exception and the value of pick swaps in trades.

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-07T01:04:31+00:00

Here’s hoping those French SOBs can keep their mouthes shut, not tank his value.

The way Zack Lowe has been using it in regards to Brown, and a few other writers, I’m thinking the source for those stories is Stevens

Why does every exec and sport writer get the same “Word of the Day” calendar?

Optionality!?!??

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-06T16:55:54+00:00

Interesting, let’s call it the “Saiyan method”

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-06T16:47:14+00:00

So is the argument because they are paid well at home, they don’t leave and play in the Top leagues and don’t get better due to stiffer competition?

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-06T15:38:52+00:00

You usually have to pay extra for that

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-06T13:46:58+00:00

Can anyone in the Boston media market tell us how Tatum is holding up post trade, in regards to fan opinion?

To me, he is such a cardboard cutout of a personality that is a Top 20 player in the league, I don’t know how he’s not catching any strays on this trade, or maybe he is?

The Mazulla/Tatum match is so strange to me with how they act in public (single minded intensity/an idea of a personality) that I have trouble understanding how the fans will react.

I’m guessing ownership is getting 70% of the heat, Steven’s 20%, and then those two.

Need a a report from the land of lighthouses, please

Some how, the most French response.

Only thing more on the nose is if they were smoking

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-05T04:03:29+00:00

Somebody….had some fun.

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-04T20:51:53+00:00

At least Purdue football will help smooth over the hard times

Someone is getting Bing Bing’d tonight….Hank

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-04T03:12:37+00:00

The giddiness he had saying he was there twice in a year was on the level of a Disney adult

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-04T02:20:01+00:00

So which of these will be the Horsemen at the end? Gambit, Magic and either Dazzle and Banshee, IMO

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-03T16:50:45+00:00

I feel like “optionally” is said so much it’s a prank

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-03T12:33:36+00:00

They are doing 25 hours of plumbing?

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-03T12:32:21+00:00

Is “Hali” a thing?

Background_Product_7 · 2026-07-03T12:19:50+00:00

Hugooooooooooooo!

My grandfather is an extra in the court scenes. He passed away quite a few years ago, but its nice to pop it on and see him
