In a recent podcast, Bill Simmons reacted to Jayson Tatum's serious Achilles injury sustained during Game 4 of the Celtics-Knicks series. Simmons expressed deep concern for Celtics fans while discussing Tatum's impressive performance prior to the injury, where he scored 42 points and dominated the game. Following the confirmed injury and subsequent surgery, the future for both Tatum and the Celtics remains uncertain. Simmons highlighted the resulting challenges for the team, as Tatum was pivotal, playing extensive minutes and taking on significant responsibilities both offensively and defensively. This injury may drastically alter the Celtics' playoff trajectory.
"Tonight was not a good night for Celtics fans. Holy sh**."
"... that was one of the best games of his career up to that point. I mean, he singlehandedly kept the Celtics in that game for three plus quarters and was outrageously good."
"Tatum was playing 40, 43 minutes a night and doing everything."
