I can't help but think a lot of it has to do with the way he shoots the ball. I don't know if it is too late to fix it but it looks bad right now.

He's a 49% shooter on wide open threes. He's got a great shot.

I missed the first and i think a little of the second. How many of the 17 is on JB? I hope Joe moves him off of him and not be stubborn if he can’t hang… him or jb.

Is there anything left in that tank, or is he tapped out?

He should just shoot wide open 3’s. Those side step 3’s ain’t working.

Tatum needs to get better by not constantly chucking 3’s.

I think he needs that shot for the playoffs.

Might be painful to watch now, but I think it will pay off in May and June.

JT: 5/13, 1/7 from 3
JB: 4/12, 1/5 from 3

White: 3/6, 2/4 from 3 with 3 asts and a block

He's a great singer and probably can put on a better show than whatever Boston's got going on right now.

The Nuggets have no one who can defend them Jays.

Nuggets are keying on both. They would be better off getting the attention then passing it out

Did I hear Scal say “another oppor-chance” before that last possession?

TheMartian · Post #251 » by **TheMartian** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 1:46 am

Am just hoping they don't come out flat in the 3rd like they usually do.

Dunno how many but he was the primary defender in the 2nd. I think White is a better chaser on those handoffs and in PnR.

It doesn't matter he would definitely mess up team chemistry trying to revive his career..

He should stop taking awful contested shots.

Tatum always has some questionable shot choices on these ending attempts.
Just as a no Time Out by Mazzulla, as Denver ate into the Celtics lead.
We see both things constantly.

Somebody has to take them and I'd rather it be Tatum than anyone else on the team.

Nothing wrong with that shot if he’s making them. But, if its not there, he should just move the ball, or try to attack inside. Constantly taking them and bricking them, makes him look like a stupid chuckster. Just watch Jokic play, big diff.

PierceFan4ever · Post #258 » by **PierceFan4ever** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 1:48 am

I don’t think Tatum is a bad three point shooter more like he takes bad three point shots with high degree of difficulty. Whenever he’s set or takes threes that doesn’t involve a lot of dribbling, he usually shoots high percentage. Thought both brown and Horford missed JT earlier when he was completely wide open on that crazy offensive rebound sequence.

Lol. Nobody needs to take those awful shots. Somebody is always open if they just move the ball, and not addicted to taking 3’s.
