Tatum upsets me a lot. TAKE KVER THE GAME TATUM! Why is he so scared? Smart is the worse offensive player in NBA history but has the confidence of Kobe. If Tatum stops playing scared and puts up 20 shots a game, I'll be happy.
Last thing I want Tatum to do is to take over the game Smart-style. Eeek.
Same . But i bet he does a better job
What are the chances Tatum grows another inch or two by the end of this season?
Is it me or does he look taller than 6'8? looks like has a longer wingspan than 6'11
I'll just throw this out there ...
Lebron James averaged 19, 5, 5, 2, and 1 per 36 his rookie year on 42, 29, 75 shooting.
Durant averaged 21, 5, 3, 1, 1 per 36 his rookie year on 43, 29, 87 shooting.
Tatum is averaging 17, 7, 2, 1, 1 per 36 his rookie year on 50, 50, 83 shooting.
He's 19. Even the best in the game didn't "take over the game" when they were rookies on terrible teams that needed them to score.
Edit: The Celtics thought he'd grow another inch or two because his growth plates hadn't closed. His wingspan has always looked bigger than 6'11'', but I wouldn't say its as big as Giannis 7'4''. Somewhere in the middle.
