Still need to make sure Tatum and Brown can make a secondary effort to score, even if that means starting these attacks 5 or so seconds earlier to allow Tatum or Brown can pass to one another (or hockey pass in between from Smart/Horford) as secondary attack even if it means adding a possession or two to do it.

tatum is so damn mature for a dude who just turned 24.

van gundy: "he can be the best player on the best team - he's that good"

YES

most of the national tv broadcasters i can't stand, but the van gundy brothers are decent.

By the way. Tatum's offensive output, combined with his defensive effort on Durant. One of the most complete games I have ever seen.

Tatum outscored Durant and Kyrie combined!
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

the nets could have hired udoka. instead they hired nash as head coach, and then made udoka their assistant.

their loss. our gain :)

There is NO argument against Tatum being a superstar other than consistency. And that argument is looking pretty weak.
