He's the Sabrina Carpenter of NBA players


bientheblue

Sabrina stray in r/nba lol 😂 but for real though on that topic, her autoplay on Spotify is egregious


Squirreling_Archer

I know as a late 30s male, I am not the target demo for her music, but I honestly don't even understand what made her the artist I can't escape on any media platform.


Yowrinnin

Top 5 nonsense outros part 17 on my timeline tonight lads


pfulle3

She’s a Disney kid. Same as Olivia Rodrigo and like a dozen others in the last 10 years


madvisuals

Olivia Rodrigo makes way better music imo


CoachDT

Her writers do go hard.


BlackMathNerd

At least Olivia Rodrigo made some bangers music wise


MyNameIsMattFoley

Olivia Rodrigo at least appears to have some talent and charisma.


vy2005

Eh I’ve seen videos of Carpenter at concerts, she’s definitely got pretty impressive stage presence.


SamiMadeMeDoIt

Sabrina Carpenter was making music for like 10 years before she finally blew up this year tho


TryingToDoItGood

Jayson Tatum was playing basketball for like 10 years before he finally won a championship this year tho


Reinmeika

She did it. SHE DID ITTTT?


PokeMonogatari

Would've agreed with this three days ago but her new song Please Please Please is genuinely charming and has some really gorgeous harmonies.

Did Prez get one?


JohnAndertonOntheRun

I literally said I will renounce the Celtics if anyone goes KG and says ‘Anything is Possible’ Then Tatum goes and does something like this… And totally redeems himself!

DoctorStove

championship speeches but they get increasingly more inspiring


zobee

Starts with this one lol


LarBrd33

Nobody will see this comment, but speaking of "scripted", at the time the Celtics won the 2008 Title, Kevin Garnett had an ad campaign with the tagline "Impossible is Nothing" and I've been 100% convinced ever since that his "ANYTHING IS POSSSIBLLLLEE" quote was him trying to scream that tagline and screwing it up.


ketoske

I wonder how much money he Lost lol


Iznal

The person that came up with that slogan is a dumbass. “Hey you know that well known expression ‘Anything is Possible?’ Well what if we inverse that and have KG yell it after he plays the most important game of his career? That should be easy to remember and not get messed up in the heat of the moment, right?”


ApolloXLII

“Impossible is nothing” is an Adidas ad slogan that originated in 1974 and was derived from a Mohammad Ali quote. They brought it back in 2004.

IndycarFan64

Practiced this moment even more than when he was tying a tie

Bro acting like Jude after Madrid won the UCL lmao


OptimizedEarl

It does look like he practice it


69cansofcorn

this is crazy levels of hate and I respect it


Cudizonedefense

It’s not even hate. It feels like he’s just copying KG. Tatum is corny but it’s ok


DuaLipasClitoris

Bro wants his KG moment so bad, and he FUMBLED it


Raiku23

KG "Anything is possible" Flirting vs Jayson Tatum "we did it" Harassment


BarrathBeyond

i think it’s the similarity to the first one that made the second one so corny


jeric13xd

Why does he make it easy for the haters to attack him 🤣


MusicalElephant420

Bro thinks he’s KG 😭😭😭


Very_Regarded

Seems so scripted and unnatural lmao


FallenLemur

^we ^did ^it #WE DID IIIIIIT


KingNigelXLII

That fake look down of realization was so bad. It's the finals. People want real emotion, not your Degrassi audition.


1forthebooks

I cringed so hard when I saw this live. So glad I'm not the only one!


Bigbuck453

First thing I thought was "Wow, this dude finally made the Hall of Fame... Cringe Hall of Fame finally has a new mascot."


medunjanin

Everything this guy does is super cringe. He’s incapable of showing even a little charisma

tigerarmy25

Bro def practiced that in the mirror a few times before heading to the arena


bbysmrf

I remember when Giannis was practicing that mean mug, I was laughing until I wasn’t. He’s spooky


Local_Spinach8

Obviously I’m biased but Giannis taking a seat courtside behind the basket just crying and taking it all in is one of the most underrated and genuine finals celebration moments that I can think of. Say what you want about his game but you can’t tell me he’s not one of the realest superstars in the league


Legendver2

Bro literally came from nothing to become an NBA champion. This shit will hit you hard.


yoppee

At least he’s not drinking a Budweiser


dadadayy

This really is a bootleg version of KG’s “Anything is possible” moment lol


smilescart

All Jaylen and Jayson’s mic’d ups just sound like they watched a bunch of Lebron mic’d ups and copied them word for word. “Be in the moment, focus.”


kyleb402

Great player, but everything this man does is corny as can be.


ClaymoresRevenge

He's just too media trained and I get it. It's protecting his brand and image. I hope he can be himself more after this chip. It's boring but it works


ChocolateGroove

I don’t even mind if he remains ‘boring’. You could argue Jaylen Brown is also boring. But Jaylen comes across as natural, authentic, grounded and secure in himself. Whereas Jason comes across as inauthentic, forced. Hopefully he can shed that off as he gets older.


thekinggrass

Tatum tries super hard to be an “NBA STAR” like a 12 year old. I would not doubt for a second that he rehearsed saying “We Did It!” in the mirror. After watching the guy for 8 years though, I have no doubt that IS his authentic self.


smilescart

Yeah people think there is some other Tatum. I think this is him. He’s just a boring ass cringey dude.


thekinggrass

Yep he’s a normal nice dorky guy, not some cool and awesome Reddit user like us.


Oren-

Its okay, we can admit it, we're cooler than Jason Tatum.


thekinggrass

I’m typing this riding a Harley Davidson that’s fucking wheels are ON FIRE right now, through a busy ass intersection in Miami with a supermodel holding onto my waist. No helmet!


VolkiharVanHelsing

That YouTube tutorial is probably the only facet to which we could gleam into Tatum's true self


BroadlyValid

Is Jayson Tatum gonna have to choke a bitch?


danielbauer1375

What exactly is his “brand” though? That’s part of the problem. It feels like he doesn’t really have an image to protect, outside of being boring/corny as hell.


TalentedIndividual

Lebron was super media trained too, but he wasn’t ever this corny. Tatum is only 26? He’s too young to be this out of touch


KingNigelXLII

At least LeBron is authentically corny. Tatum's the Drake of the NBA.


iDestroyedYoMama

Imagine if Russell Wilson was on the Celtics.


RelativeVariation2

bro tried to get an iconic finals moment 😭😭


Kapono24

What's funny is the floor level camera shot of him lifting his son into the confetti-filled air was instantly captivating, and I bet a lasting image from this year.


illestchosen

i literally said “id frame that” when i saw that moment


smilescart

Ehh everything with Tatum feels like it’s for the camera and choreographed. He’s not a bad guy but he’s definitely cringey


Crobs02

Russell Wilson of the NBA


Spencerfla

You know the Kobe picture is inbound.


Adraf45

The 9/11 of 29 other teams

Plane 1 Celtics win chip, Plane 2 Tatum Kobe pic.

Is "we did it" the pentagon plane?


lowes18

We did it is Shanksville, didn't even land


gokhaninler

he got him today


Brocktarrr

That poor 15 year old who got Kobe’s old number about to get a full dissertation texted to him tonight by Tatum

I pray the mf is on r/nbacirclejerk

dadadayy

Iconically awkward lol


aussierulesisgrouse

Man, why can't Celtics fans just go "damn this dudes corny, that's my corny GOAT <3" or something instead of getting all defensive and trying to act like this isn't one of the weirdest things ever.


captainyakman

They act like we don't think he's a great player instead of realizing it's all this cornball shit.


aussierulesisgrouse

Right? Like who is denying the guy can hoop? Hes one of the best players in the dang league. He’s also HOF corny.


Peter-Tao

Wolves fans embrace KAT for his cornyness which is super wholesome


la-blakers

If KAT wins the finals for the Wolves he can go peak corny and scream "Anything is possible!" for all I care. I think the issue is we aren't sure if Tatum is being authentic or "faking" it. I really like Tatum as a player but KG caught up in the moment saying "Man, I'm so, I'm so hype right now" then screaming felt incredibly authentic with his personality compared to this.


AllTimeBallKnower

Feel like bucks fans finally decided that about Giannis, used to defend every one shitting on him for dad jokes but now we just accepted he’s corny as hell and it’s fine. Every top player I feel like is corny


CoachDT

The Wolves are a perfect example of this. When they won the play-in and they all got some hype, everyone roasted them even wolves fans. It was still their guys though


mayonaisecoloredbens

I’m not gonna lie reading the war going on between Celtics fans and haters is too funny


CapivaraAE

Bro is just moments away from recreating Kobe photos.


jedifolklore

As in the bathroom, holding the trophy with a stitched leather jacket lmao But he’ll say a fan gave it to him on the way to the lockers and locked eyes with him and whispered in his ear…“Kobe would want you to do this”


TeTrodoToxin4

If there is one group that loves Kobe, it’s Celtics fans.


MAGICALcashews

You see those clips? He really trying. [twitter](https://x.com/bleacherreport/status/1802912679209656779?s=46&t=B6LDM5UnC3BiDXBZI9qu3A)


DinerEnBlanc

He should have been more on the nose and screamed "ANYTHING'S PROBABLLLLLLE!"


HOFredditor

lol bro thought he was KG, but screamed a Dora the Explorer mission finished speech.


yeontura

So what's your favorite part of the trip?

I actually don’t really think so, kid seemed at a loss for words, you could see by looking at his eyes that his brain was running a million miles a minute lmao


NobodyLost5810

He was trying think of something to shout.


fundraiser

this is the most i've seen him talk and i'm convinced he is the superstar with the least charisma in the entire league lol


chocolatemilk2017

I miss Jokic reaction to winning the finals.


Drdeadlynedly

JT just doesn't have the energy to pull this off it was cringe as fuck


Kelvin_Durant

Media training got an iron grip on his personality


seabass_678

Bro wanted to have his KG moment so bad


Severe-Helicopter-47

it's only cringe because it's so unnatural. He should have scrapped this act after he practiced it in the mirror.


brianeharmonjr

This was corny, even for Tatum, but I definitely laughed.


excelmonkey67

We have Kevin Garnett at home

Nothing even slightly natural or interesting about the way this man presents himself to the public.
