That brown shot...just because you make an and 1 layup you don’t chuck a three

How many times has Tatum drove the ball into the paint during first quarters? Almost every time to start the game he looks for his jump shot

Tatum seems allergic to 1st quarters.

It's on Danny. He should never have said, "we really like our guys". Now they are all re-disinterested and re-entitled again.
Hey you! Can we come together?

Not really liking our shot selection so far, also feels like fastbreaks are few and far between these days

Tatum rarely beats guys off the dribble. He takes those terrible fade aways cuz that's his only option with his current handle and lack of change of speeds.

Tatum can't get to the rim. At least Jaylen can.

I think we've got this. Nobody has lower BBIQ than Randle and he's their best player. Their whole team is full of knuckleheads. We take this comfortably

Tristan looks like he's aged 5 years since we saw him last. (Or maybe he only plays that old.)

Pretty cool to see how basketball works when you don’t settle for jumpers

Great adjustment after all the clanks.

I don’t even mind Jaylen not finishing at the hole. Sooner or later, they’ll fall. I like that he’s getting there. We need a couple more who can get there, too.
