Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics has received a lot of praise and a lot of criticism over the years.
Even last season as his Celtics won their first championship in years, people called out Tatum and questioned his leadership skills.
Tatum has had enough and pushed back with a social media post on Wednesday night.
According to NBACentral, Tatum posted a series of pictures of himself with a caption that mockingly said, “SoFtesT SuPeRstar in CeLtiC HiStoRy.”
Tatum has obviously heard the statements said about him, and he isn’t very happy about them.

Tatum has found a huge amount of success in the NBA and is a five-time All-Star, All-Star MVP, and now a champion as well.
Additionally, he won Eastern Conference Finals MVP a few seasons ago.
But there are still people who say that Tatum is too inconsistent and not able to lead his team.
They say Jaylen Brown is the bigger superstar and they also say he couldn’t even earn a lot of playing time during the Paris Olympics.
Of course, some of the people saying that are just fans who hold a grudge against the Boston Celtics.
However, there are many NBA followers who feel that Tatum still hasn’t proven himself and isn’t competitive enough.
They say he is “soft,” and Tatum is sick of hearing that.
The numbers say it all, and Tatum is having another terrific season, averaging 28.1 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 5.5 assists.
And his Celtics are surging once again, the second-best team in the East with a 27-10 record.
As the team continues to thrive, will Tatum keep firing back at the critics who question him?
