The Celtics are in an incredible spot right now with an opportunity in the Eastern Conference.
So maybe sneak into the finals in a way this year.
But the risk of that being re-injured or re-aggravated or something else happening would have to be negligible.
There would have to be like a below 5% chance risk for me to come back.
Like I'm just keeping it a buck.
Other than that, I would buy my time.
I would get fully healthy.
I would take another off season to get myself back.
and try to get closer to 100%.
Because even if he comes back, Logan, we don't know what percentage of himself as a player he will represent to them at that point.
And whether that representation is enough to help them get over that hump.
And at that point, I don't know that the risk is worth the reward, if that makes sense.
If you told me we're dropping 100%, all the way healthy, all-star caliber forward, and Jason Tatum back in with the Boston Celtics, and you said there's a
15% chance of re-injury.
Like, you know, Eastern Conference is kind of open.
I just said Detroit's in the class by themselves.
Boston's really fucking good.
Like, yeah, I might swing at that.
But if he's not going to be that, I mean, I have to think long and hard about whether that risk is worth that reward.
That's what I meant by, like, what percentage of himself as a player is he going to be.
