Tatum looking great. He is so freaking polished at his age...

Tatum just seems his best with his back to the basket in the high post ISO. That's when he's at his best.

Lot of Lamarcus Aldridge in his game there.

Could you imagine Melo with a team first, pass first mentality?

Yeah. I can.

There aren't 3 guys in the league that can get up and bother that high release. That shot is damn near automatic for him

Tatum willl be an elite scorer in this league fairly quickly. For that alone, I couldn't give a damn about his supposed "low ceiling".

Well, looks like Ainge drafted another scrub in Tatum!

Tatum is going to destroy teams this year. He has such length, what a prospect.

I think most posters have hyped him way too high on hope rather than logic. It will take Zizic years to develop into a good to great Centre if he makes it at all. We all want a big, but Zizic is a long way from being a starter or even a guy who is likely to get double digit minutes for some time. Everyone needs to give him a break and have realistic expectations of him.

We're all just hyped cause we have no big man and he was tearing up the Euroleague

Both Brown and Tatum have effective ISO games. You gotta wonder whether Brad's current system will adjust to cater to that. We've been a low-iso team, partly because we had no one great at it.

Zizic getting that cardio in!

Tatum does not have a pass-first mentality.

Love what I'm seeing from Tatum. However...it's only Summer League. Some people called Olynyk Dirk 2.0 after his first couple of summer league outings.
