Foul should stand.

Hand is an extension of the ball.
It's gotta be wrist or higher.

Tatum needs to stop trying to prove Kidd wrong. This is a mf team game.

That’s getting reversed. The decision making was too **** slow on that fast break

Why, JT.

Why try to shoot the 3 over the guy who has a 7'8" wingspan?

Why?
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

He needs to dunk those instead of trying to make a pretty layup.


He’s scared of contact. Weak ass euro everytime.

Tatum needs to change his shooting form. It looks really inefficient.

Clunky start. But I actually like our defense and activity. Just need to finish some plays. Had some blocks, tips, etc just need to come up with the ball. Offense another story. Pretty bad

His trainer drew halen is probably the most skilled training there. Is..Except he taught Tatum to be a soft ass pussy with those shots. Holding the **** ball for 10 seconds And doing that is stupid stupid basketball even if occasionally it goes in.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Need a couple plays to wake the arena up. Feeling like a regular season game at the moment with the energy from players and fans.

Three ball not falling early, get to the rack and pick up your energy on both ends.

My most hated play in basketball right now - JT dribble dribble into a side step 3. Rarely ever goes in.

He's got too much of a hitch. Needs to take a look at what guys like Steph, DWhite, etc are doing. Much cleaner release.
