That was one of the most emotionally exhausting Celtics wins of my lifetime. I'm not even being dramatic. The fact that they were just in a fight for their lives against the goddamn 13 win Timberwolves to the point where they had to go to overtime just to beat them was not great. In fact, it's pretty pathetic. But you know what? We'll talk about that in tomorrow's blog. This blog is for Jayson Tatum. The 22 year old franchise STUD and his career best 53 point outburst. 

To put it simply, Tatum was incredible. It started early with a much more aggressive approach. I think we all were happy to see that shit. When Tatum decides to be aggressive and attack the paint, good things happen. We even saw his stepthrough a couple times which was refreshing. The final line was as disgusting as you think it might be

53 points

16-25 FG%

6-10 3P%

15-16 FT%

10 rebounds

4 assists

He had 35 in the second half/OT. He hit big shot after big shot. Essentially, he put the team on his back like the franchise player needs to do. Can't lose to the Timberwolves under any circumstances and thanks to Tatum (and others) we don't have to worry about that reality.

And to think, there are people on this planet that wanted to ship him out of Boston. Idiots. Complete fucking idiots.

We'll discuss the actual game tomorrow, but for now, let us all spend the rest of this Friday doing nothing but watching the Tatum highlights
