How would you feel as a Sixers fan watching Tatum right now?

These two teams should be dominating the east for the next several years

Sixers need Embiid to start dominating his offensive matchups. He's shutting the paint down so far and doing his job on that end, but they could really use his GOATness on O at the moment.

Just think if Tatum had the potential to be more than just a 3rd option....

This is what I said too. Miami has great perimeter defenders, but they're more suited against shutting down a small ball lineup full of forwards. Boston has better and quicker smaller guards.

I figure it’s the same way a Celtics fan would feel watching Mitchell play :wink:

Prediction: Simmons gets knocked out at least twice in his career. Seems like an arrogant d-bag out there.

Fultz was a negative anytime he was on the court in the Miami series. I don't blame Brett for not playing him, must suck to see Tatum out there.



That’s no excuse for a team needing some added defense. To hell with being 19 he’s still the number one pick and wasn’t drafted as a raw prospect



Stevens would gameplan him off the floor, he doesn't shoot threes.

Why? All the respect in the world for Mitchell and his season, but we are perfectly fine with Tatum. He's been good and has room to grow.

What is Rozier's role after Kyrie comes back? Seems too small of a back court defensively to play them together.
