That in a Los Angeles Lakers-Boston Celtics, eternal NBA classic, and on the Lakers court – now Crypto.com Arena for advertising reasons – a player dressed in the ‘sacred green tunic’ of Boston wears, at the same time , purple details would practically constitute a reason for war. Even more so if this were the 70s-80s-90s, then what Jayson Tatum did in the eternal duel on the occasion of Christmas Day (115-126) it was a tribute and a show of respect. From the current ‘proud greens’ reference to the modern gold and purple myth, Kobe Bryant.
Tatum, before Davis.
It is not the first time that Tatum pays tribute to his idol. He always considered him as his reference and even in terms of playing style there are similarities between the two. Style, shooting range and scoring ability. Since the tragic death of the ‘Black Mamba’, ‘JT’ remembers him. He used the purple armband like Kobe’s and repeated in what was in 2022 the “biggest game of his career”, as he explained.
It was the seventh game between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat of the 2022 Eastern finals. Boston won the conference and would play the finals against the Golden State Warriors. Tatum was MVP wearing that purple armband. He did not stop there, because he taught as he had written before starting in the chat he had with Kobe. “You’re with me,” she left him.
It’s a way to share the moment
Jayson Tatum
A way to remember the reference and idol of many in the NBA. “I was watching some moments of his career. This is the most important game of my career so far and I wanted to use that detail to honor him and share that moment,” he reflected.
The Celtics survive a colossal Davis in the NBA classic
Tatum established himself as a star of the League and in his most special Classic, on Christmas Day, he repeated the tribute. Against the Lakers and in Los Angeles. He won the game, with 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists as a statistical line and keeping Boston in command of the regular season.
