Yeah it's hard to still worry about that trade when you see Tatum outplaying everyone so far.

Brad has to be licking his chops waiting for training camp to start.

Zizic finally playing well.

I am a bit concerned how rarely Tatum gets to the rim.

Brad won't love those difficult mid range jumpers.

I do worry just a little bit about Tatum in that he never seems to get much separation. Against better NBA defenders he's gonna take even tougher shots. But so far he's making them.

Dude, his release is so high (Dirk-like) that he should have no problem getting shots off.

Dirk is a seven footer, Tatum player a lot of guys in college smaller than him. In the NBA most defenders will 6'7, 6'8 on him and he's gonna have a hand in his face every time. Not saying he cants make it because he has so far, but I worry about guys who rely on difficult shots. The ability to stretch the floor both in terms of hitting his threes and getting to the basket occasionally will be key.

He's getting the star treatment on defense, that won't be the case when he's on the floor with better players.

Why didn't Jackson pass that fast break to OJe? That would have been yam city.

Don't get me wrong, I like this guy a lot. He's an better rebounder and defender than I thought already, and he seems to have a scorer's mentality which is half the battle.

Semi looks like he can guard guards to power forwards. He's going to be a useful player...
