Fun fact of the day:

Jayson Tatum is shooting 34% from the field (20/59) in these NBA Finals.

Butler might of had better peak game in the series but overall he did not outplay Tatum. .

Tatum had the same points on better efficiency (+4 TS%) and also averaged more rebounds and more assists. No case for butler for overall series due to his lows being so bad.

You can't skip over the fact that he absolutely destroyed Durant. A lot of people were calling Durant the best in the world the last 3-4 years. Tatum made him look like just another guy.

As far as Giannis, it was close but Tatum outplayed him in 4/7 wins. I have a write-up on this on a blog actually:

Default Tatum outplayed Giannis in 4/7 games
If you out-play someone the majority of the games (at least 4) then I would say you won the duel. So in this case, Tatum outplayed Giannis.

Game 2: Tatum 29 points 65% TS and 11 BPM VS Giannis 28 points on 45% TS

Tatum clearly outplayed Giannis here as Giannis was awful

Game 4: Tatum had 10 points in 4th quarter taking over and winning. 28 on 56% TS a 10% higher TS over Giannis 46% TS

Game 6: Tatum had 46 points on 66% TS and hit huge clutch shots. This one also edge to Tatum

Game 7: Tatum had a great passing game and set up grant Williams for a lot of his shots. Giannis had a great 1st quarter but was terrible after that with more shots then points at 25 points on 26 shots. Tatum had two less points on 12 less shots so just a way more efficient + better passing game then Giannis

That is some spectacular cherry picking.

I will post my response later when I have more time.

Not worth your time my guy…

Who do you got for the Wiz at number 10 and who would YOU like?

Not sure.

Haven’t studied the current draft class enough to know who the late lotto gems might be.

What I do know is that it really doesn’t matter until the team can find a direction. And that isn’t likely to happen anytime soon.

Off the top of your head, and remember…

YOU run the team…

All this NBA finals talk is boring me.

Their is reasonable ways to debate me. The ones that aren't reasonable, I won't waste time with.

Tatum is putting up 26/6/6 with elite defense and outplayed and eliminated Durant, Giannis, butler. Now he's 2 wins away from doing the same thing to Curry. It's time to face the facts. Tatum is the best player in the world and is having easily a top 10 playoff run in nba history
Tatum is not even a top 5 player in the league and barely the best player on his own team. You are an idiot.

I gotta hand it to him though, I'm pretty sure he has turned the entire board into temporary Warriors fans just so we can see this meltdown when the Celtics don't win the title.

Dyson Daniels, but doubt he falls.

I would start by trading Beal and beginning a true rebuild process that is long overdue.

As long as he is continuing to "remain" in the game and has his head on straight and getting others involved I'm ok with 34%... Of course it could change my tune if the Cs don't win

Oh, I agree.

Just impossible to make the argument that he the 'Greatest Eva' or whatever.

Tatum hasn't even been the best player on the court the past few series.

I see a lot of SGA in Daniels.

Sounds like Beal, and Washington are still very much in love with each other. Beal is going to be 29 this month, they both sound like they don’t care about winning… at all. So Beal is more than likely getting that last bag with Washington.

Sorry

Yeah this "GOAT" crap is just being spewed by the Boston media and it's pretty sad.. Sure he has greatly improved but I don't consider him "up there" just yet
