The Boston Celtics were in a pretty sensitive situation when Jayson Tatum sustained an injury but now it seems like, as per LeBron James, the Celtics seem \u201cbored\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>LeBron James feels that the Boston Celtics are \u201cbored\u201d and fans agree with the NBA icon\u2019s take on the team<\/p>\n<p>On the Mind the Game podcast, LeBron James said, &#8220;Sometimes they get a little bored because of how great they are\u2026Not only those two as individuals, but them as a team, sometimes it looks like they get bored\u201d and fans agree with the NBA legend.A fan commented, \u201cCeltics this year showed how great they are in certain games, and would show how lazy they are in some especially in offense, where it would stagnate with just ISOs\u201d, while another fan wrote, \u201cTotally agree with Lebron, on top of all the injuries, they simply did not look as hungry this year.\u201dA third fan wrote, \u201cThis is what separates teams like Warriors and Heat before from Celtics team today. These teams don\u2019t get bored of greatness. They stick to the grind and play the right way. Celtics when bored just chucks threes \ud83d\ude2d\u201dAnother fan commented, \u201cHonestly, that&#8217;s how they played the first couple games. Sad to see them knocked out, partially because of this\u2026\u201d, while a fifth fan noted, \u201cLeBron is 1000% right and that pisses me off because how are you bored off winning one championship knowing you should have 3-4? They need some sort of voice that\u2019ll keep them locked in man.\u201dNeither Jayson Tatum nor any other player of the Boston Celtics has commented on LeBron James\u2019 recent remark. When Jayson Tatum sustained an injury at the game against the New York Knicks, there were many conversations on whether the star player was \u201cfaking\u201d the injury.However, Jayson Tatum has maintained silence on it and is focusing on his recovery.Recently, LeBron James also made another controversial podcast when he blamed his team, the Los Angeles Lakers, for the loss. LeBron James said, \u201cTeams win championships. It\u2019s never just about me and Luka\u2026 there\u2019s 8 other guys on the floor\u2026I\u2019ve definitely learned over the years that teams win championships.\u201dThis had sparked major outrage among fans but LeBron James has remained silent on the criticism he has received.Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/nba\/top-stories\/mid-life-crisis-in-full-swing-dwyane-wade-gets-heavily-trolled-for-new-tattoo-months-after-major-surgery\/articleshow\/121292799.cms\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cMid-life crisis in full swing\u201d: Dwyane Wade gets heavily trolled for new tattoo months after major surgery<\/a><br \/>Get <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IPL 2025<\/a> match <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/schedule\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/schedule\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">schedules<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">squads<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/points-table\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/points-table\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">points table<\/a>, and live scores for <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/chennai-super-kings\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/chennai-super-kings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CSK<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/mumbai-indians\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/mumbai-indians\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MI<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/royal-challengers-bengaluru\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/royal-challengers-bengaluru\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RCB<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/kolkata-knight-riders\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/kolkata-knight-riders\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">KKR<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/sunrisers-hyderabad\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/sunrisers-hyderabad\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SRH<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/lucknow-super-giants\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/lucknow-super-giants\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LSG<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/delhi-capitals\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/delhi-capitals\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DC<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/gujarat-titans\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/gujarat-titans\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">GT<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/punjab-kings\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/punjab-kings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PBKS<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/rajasthan-royals\" title=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/cricket\/ipl\/teams\/rajasthan-royals\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RR<\/a>.
