Tatum, on the other side, praised LeBron, who is playing his 20th NBA season and still putting up incredible numbers and playing like he just entered his prime. Following the game, the younger forward was asked about James and what it means to him to face the Lakers superstar. 

JT only had good things to say about LeBron and everything he’s done in his career. 

“I’m honored to compete against one of the best players of all time. And you show respect by going at somebody,” Tatum said, via Heavy.

Things are going just fine for the Celtics and their superstar, who is showing that they’re looking for revenge after being two games away from winning it all last season. Now, things are looking different, especially with the defending champions struggling to get things going. 

Tatum is on a mission and he won’t rest until he finishes the job this time. The C’s have the best duo in the league, and their head coach is doing incredible things with the squad. LeBron is already a legend of the game, and Tatum can start making his own this season.
