The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

Fixed.

Pretty sure he was still statistically the best player in the playoffs while seeing defense like this throughout

Yeah ain’t no way he consistently saw defenses like this. Max strus ain’t doing a thing that low.
 
Yea idc about aura either, you still get remembered for winning it all.

He's a better scorer though. Stats will probably show differently, not sure how many games Melo played in the new shot clock era.

Tatum's supporting cast was always better and he faced way less HOF'ers on most of their runs.
Way less HOFers?

Dude has played Bron, Steve, Yanni, KD, Luka, Harden, Embiid. And that’s top of the top guys. Plenty others that prob end up going in too.

And he didnt win when he faced most those guys. That 2022 run was more impressive and it was only Giannis :lol:
 
Did you watch the playoffs?

He pretty frequently drew the attention of 2-3 defenders, which is why he become point Tatum

Hey man I’m not here to disparage Tatum. Those coverages, especially the ones when he broke the foul extended are routine helpside reads. His best playmaking came when it was 5 out and he just had to drive and kick. I’m not slandering him, he shot like trash but his playmaking got better. But he wasn’t guarded any differently than any other player of his stature
 
6th player (and youngest) ever to win a chip while leading team in PTS/REB/AST.

Like that :pimp: :pimp: :pimp:
 
How is Tatum a better scorer than Carmelo? Bro just put up one of the worst shooting performances in Finals history. Especially when you count for volume
