After being informed of Tatum’s comments, George responded with a lighter side of himself, even acknowledging that he was put on a likely highlight for what won’t be the last time. “It wasn’t the first time I was on a Tatum highlight, and it won’t be the last, I’m sure,” George responded with a smile. “That’s part of the game, that’s part of the game. I don’t buy into that. My job was to continue on and try to win the game. “He’s special man, he’s a special talent. It says a lot about him when he has to go against myself, Pat, Kawhi, Moe and still pull his team together without Gordon in the lineup and still put up 30. It says a lot about his talent and his skill, but he’s good. He’s the reason the Celtics are off to the hot start they are.”
