Dang Lamelo dropped 30 before RJ.

Anyway, Good night for our Dallas pick.

They'd have to go on a crazy run imo because some of the teams in front of them are going to push hard. I honestly like the Knicks chances better than theirs. CHA, CLE, and ATL are kinda pushovers.

A damn shame all those teams let Boston get Pritchard

With a Wolves win tonight, Dallas only up 2.5 games for last in the west

Tatum > Luka

35

Just a two year deal. Keep some 2023 powder dry. Look at that FA list

Just another day at the office for 2021 league MVP Jayson Tatum

Not too long before the media catches on - this kid is absolutely a beast and is firmly in the top 10, approaching top 5. Look at how he’s setting up his shots here. The degree of difficulty and skill at age 23. Amazing.

We honestly need the Knicks and Mavs to lose tomorrow. I think that will drop their chances to the low 40s.

Tatum really owns Kawhi.

Fat Kyle at 35 is still pretty decent.

I'm not looking at any FA lists ever again. Because none of them are coming here. :lol:

Tatum is good but not that good. if he were this version of himself in the playoffs they should have reached the finals at least once. After all they played in the worse conference with the second worst team to reach finals in Cleveland 2018 and bums like Sixers, Bucks and Heat. You guys excuse Lillard with the conference powerhouses, but what about Celtics and Tatum? They've been good for 5 years now with a shitty-ass competition. He needs elevating in playoffs, not shrinking.

He is 23 years old.

Call Cuban and offer their 1st rounder back for Luka

Remember you swore Jokic was better than AD and if the Lakers had Jokic they would win 73 games? Good times. :lol:

Lamelo is 19 until August 22 and had 34 pts 8 ast 4 reb 2 stl 4-9 from 3 and 0 turnovers. Very comparable to the “mvp” like stat line of Tatum posted above. Imagine when he’s 23. Melo Denialists are going to be having a bad time. Not too late to repent

This is pretty cool. Tatum said he studies Kawhi and Melo. No wonder he’s so good. Lol

Yeah he’s the real deal. Not sure how anyone at this point can deny his skills
