He´s on par with Kawhi and Steph. KD has fallen a bit this season, but is still a superstar. Tatum is ahead Edwards today (maybe not in the future) and he´s ahead Brunson by miles. I still would take Tatum over all these guys
No he's not lmfao.

Let's be honest, you wouldn't take Tatum over Brunson in a Game 7 either.

Are we acting like it’s ridiculous to take the guy who scored the most points ever in a game 7, to win a game 7?

I can tell you I’d much rather have Tatum than that choke artist Joe L

It's not ridiculous, I just don't think anyone with a gun to their head would do it. I'd probably take Tatum over Embiid in a Game 7 too though.

What has Brunson done, exactly, that would warrant taking him over the guy who had arguably the best game 7 performance (in a win) of all time?

Tatum is 5 and 2 in fame 7

The two losses being as a rookie vs LeBron and last year. Tbf he got hurt ln the 1st play but tbh that series wouldn't have gone to 7 if he played better in the first 2 games
