Maybe.
I’m just saying I think Tatum and Brown have always been inherently flawed in a way when it comes to late game offence.
Brown has a shaky handle and lacks the basketball IQ to not get sucked into defensive traps etc and he doesn’t naturally create for others.
Tatum has improved a hell of a lot since his rookie year but he still doesn’t blow by defenders easily. He struggles to get to good spots all the time. His handle deserts him too at times.
We love to go on about bad shots by these guys and how they should take better ones. But defences have always been great at exploiting their weaknesses. Unfortunately Tatum and Brown as good as they are have never scored as smoothly and effortlessly as other championship duos. They get forced into bad shots because of their flaws.
You can move Joe on fine but I think the next coach will have the exact same issue.
Kyrie or Kemba with his version of the Jays would’ve looked hella nice lol. Would reduce so much pressure on the Jays. Holiday is old, really regressed and is borderline unplayable on offense a lot of times, Horford has a lot of scoring duds and is old. White really just changed his game to be strictly a three point shooter now which sucks because he can get into the paint, PP is undersized but is able to create his own offense which is nice. KP is just not reliable come April. With Joe not running anything you’re just asked of JT to get the ball near half court and make things happen late in clutch moments while other teams move the ball more and have guys who can score one on one.
Yeah I wonder if Brad tries to find a scoring guard going forward.
Holiday was awesome last year but I think his finger and hamstring have been cooked these playoffs. He’s barely looked to initiate offence.
