“I will not let basketball affect my mental state. Congratulations to the Heat, they’ve had a good streak. Sure, as a Boston Celtics fan, I believed in a comeback. Caleb Martin reminded me of Dwyane Wade in his youth.” some phases.
Tatum’s ankle injury broke my heart into 17 pieces, but I give him credit for continuing and doing his best as a team leader. I’m disappointed in the team. Another 82-game season broke my heart. Kudos to the Heat, but Jaylen Brown’s mistakes… We couldn’t take any shots from long range. I will now train with a heart broken into 17 pieces.”
In posts he made on Twitter, he said: “I would rather have been wiped out. What a lousy sight.” And “I won’t lie. I think it’s time to move on without Smart and Williams.”
