The Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum vs. the Miami Heat’s Jimmy Butler – who would you take as your No. 1 star if given a choice between the two? Both players have been performing exceptionally well in the 2023 NBA Playoffs so far, with each averaging close to 30 points per game.
And although Jimmy Buckets holds a slight edge in his overall shooting percentage thus far in the 2023 postseason, the St. Louis native has been a dominant force on the boards for the Celtics through the Boston’s series with both the Atlanta Hawks and Philadelphia 76ers.
While for fans of the Celtics, the choice is a clear one, is it necessarily so for those without green-tinted lenses?
The Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn recently joined the NBC Sports Boston “Arbella Early Edition” with Trenni, Tom Giles, and Tom E. Curran to discuss this question.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what they had to say.
