 Draft express currently has him at #6. I say he ends up being a top three selection in a loaded draft.

 He looked fantastic tonight, in what was I believe his second game back this season against the Florida Gators. He had 22 points, he's just got a nice smooth game I'll post the Duke highlights as soon as I can find them it's going to be awesome.

 6'7" shoes off. Great size and feel for the game. Silky smooth like the Zohan.

****!  :laugh: :laugh: If we draft him you've gotta push that as a nickname!

I'd like to see some more of him, I've seen the highlight vids of him in HS and I like his game a lot. Much more cerebral than some of the other guys in the draft. I'd be very happy adding him to this team



 I'm going to try to push this for Sundance. Jayson silky smooth Tatum.

 Or Jayson the Zohan Taytum!

The Zohan is one of my favorite movies! Me and a few buddies at work all do the accent they do in that movie and and quote it all the time  :laugh:

I'm down for silky smooth like the Zohan

If you're Ainge, you have to comfortably take him ahead of Jackson. He's the better player right now, resembles our beloved Pierce in his style, fills a need and would complement Jaylen well (in contrast to Jackson), and seems like a solid human being (in contrast to Jackson). Could rank him as high as #2 given how crazy Ball's father appears to be.




 Great post Tarheels

I can't wait to see him play for the Celtics.  He's so skilled, but has such a long way to go.  It will be fun to watch him develop... especially under a great coach.  Brown and Tatum in a few years will be awesome!

 I thought after first seeing Tatum he would be a great fit with brown.

There were some very interesting pre-draft takes on Tatum. I think we can all agree that we are glad we got him.

His go to shot is the long two, the most inefficient shot which he's shooting, inefficiently, he passes up open 3s for those folks...  which doesn't bode well, I'd say.

And at 6'8" and he can't dunk the ball on a fastbreak with a 6'3" guy trailing him?! He just seems like too much of a finesse player. And we are NOT a finesse team  8) Please no, I'd rather wait for Jaylen to show signs of life.

 :laugh: :laugh: Boy reading quotes like these has made my afternoon fun! TP to whomever bumped this thread  :laugh: :laugh: He said PLEASE no  :laugh: :laugh: Good thing you didn't get your wish huh?

I think we will have 2 rookies in summer league and no tatum so the new guys get more touches

Yowzah...the number of amazingly wrong pre-draft hot takes about what kind of pro Tatum would be are astounding.

The posts about his athleticism are interesting. I was a skeptic too, but I don’t think I ever wrote him off as unathletic
