On May 10, 2022, Beijing time, in a divisional semifinal in the East, the Boston Celtics faced the defending champion Nets away from home, and they played a very wonderful game, in the fourth quarter of the game they scored 43 points, helping the team complete the reversal, and the big score was rewritten to a 2:2 draw. Tatum scored 12 points in the last quarter and was the biggest contributor to the team's comeback!
After Tatum scored 30 points in this game, he also made his career playoff total 1274 points, surpassing Wade's 1272 points, becoming the fifth in NBA history for the under-25 playoff total, which is also a great honor for the youngster in the playoffs!
In the history of the NBA, the first place in the under-25 playoff scoring list is Kobe Bryant, who scored 2155 points, ranking first in history without suspense! The second place was LeBron James, who scored 1761 points, the third place was Parker, who scored 1547 points, the fourth place was Durant, he got 1546 points, the fifth place was Tatum, who scored 1274 points, the sixth place was Wade 1272 points, and the seventh place was Magic Johnson, who scored 1237 points!
It can be said that on this list, Kobe Bryant is really far ahead, close to 400 points ahead of james in second place, while Durant and Parker are close to 300 points ahead of Tatum, and I don't know if Tatum this season still has a chance to approach or even complete the counterattack. If Tatum can lead the Celtics to the division finals or even the finals, there is a real chance to complete the counter-over to Durant and Parker this season!
