Yeah ain’t no way he consistently saw defenses like this. Max strus ain’t doing a thing that low.Fixed.
Pretty sure he was still statistically the best player in the playoffs while seeing defense like this throughout

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

Did you watch the playoffs?
He pretty frequently drew the attention of 2-3 defenders, which is why he become point Tatum

He beat 5 out of the 7 and that doesn't include Kyrie. What's your definition of most?

Needs more "aura" and maybe he'll move up a notch or two.

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 statureDid you watch the playoffs?

6th player (and youngest) ever to win a chip while leading team in PTS/REB/AST.

Honestly Tatum should try and mirror Melo's scoring technique instead of trying to cosplay Bean; he doesn't have the facilities to do that.

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

Nice try with the screen grabs. Nobody was doubling Tatum. He dribbles into those traps. Also all those pictures could easily be jumpers if his wasnt broken all post seasonDid you watch the playoffs?

Jabari Parker was suppose to be the next Melo
