Well, slow start but not so bad really, considering it is a road game.

Tatum really does love to start slow. 1-of-6 shooting

Good look for Tatum. Not worried about his shooting in the long term. Im more focused on the way he drives tonight and so far, it's pretty lack luster. Needs to play with a bit more force. I know he's not like Jaylen in that regard but he needs to amp it up a bit tho.

Tatum has looked straight up awful in 2 of 3 games now. He really should've played last scrimmage.

Tatum 1/6 and is -16. Yah, Brad, he should have rested that last scrimmage. :nonono: The break hasn't made Brad any tougher on them. Mr. Softy should be on the back of Brad's polo.

Down 8 seems better than down 15 though. Just need Tatum to make his usual shots. And team to be better on D.

I’m happy they didn’t play against the Rockets, they are extremely physical.

They have 8 games to work out the kinks. That’s all these games are for. Score doesn’t matter at all

Well, could be a lot worse. Need Tatum to get going for a win though
