That's why I don't mind the chucking 3s.

Attacking the rim raises the chances of an injury.

Just pace yourself in the regular season then go hard in the playoffs.

The two crimes on that list that I see committed are:

1) DeRozan making just 30mil more for his career than Harris
2) Harris being anywhere near that list

James Harden being one of the most durable players in the league is hilarious :lol:

Hoping he leads LAC to an 8th seed so OKC doesn’t land a top ten draft pick.

Anyways Tatum is a total beast and top 5 player even before the fact that he plays more than anyone.

Yes, very much. Me too. Even though I'm often critical with him, he's f*cking amazing but not perfect. What a long list, god.

He's our crown, he's our jewel! Where would we be without him? How would Jaylen Brown be regarded if Tatum didn't exist?

JT rolled his ankle against the Bucks but still finished the game. Like I said, I'm very grateful for this guy. He is TOUGH and should receive praise for it.

I would like to thank Justin Tatum and Brandy Cole for his genes, Nick Sang for helping take care of his body, and dare I say it, the late Kobe Bryant for being his inspiration growing up and pushing JT to be his absolute greatest.

Indeed..also thanks to Drew Hanlen, his skills trainer since he was like 14.

And I think Coach K and Jon Scheyer helped give him some guidance at Duke as well. And thanks to Danny for drafting him.

We're lucky to have him for sure. A case could be made that he's top 3 player in the world, with the others being Jokic and Giannis. Tatum is more durable and 3 years younger than Giannis..and he's about 3 years younger than Jokic too..

Except for Lebron, Tatum has to be the most durable star athlete of this generation...

Edit Jokic as well??

He also doesn’t flash guns in Tik tok videos (Jah), say gang gang in post game interviews (LaMelo), never shied away from leadership (KD), has worked to better himself, plays both sides of the ball, is a family man and a great father, never gotten trouble and been instrumental in building a great team culture. Keep going JT. It has been a joy to watch him.

That's why I was so confident the Jays would eventually win a championship.

They're just true professionals.

There's none of that off the court distractions that some superstars struggle with.
