I wish he would go more to the Hayward type tricks and just pull up from 10 feet. Drive down there and then hit the the 8 foot fadeaway Hayward style. Watch Kawhi and see how he does it. Tatum appears to be pretty good when he goes to more of a jumper from that range. He just rarely ever does it. If you have to shoot a floater, get yourself far more under control, and get more high jump instead of long jump.
I also hate those floaters from the middle. But I think a decent floater is really nice to have in your arsenal against today's defenses. Maybe he could study Joe Johnson, one of the best to have a floater game. Or take em from the sides as Curry does and have the backboard as his friend? But yeah, he needs to be more on balance when he takes those.
