Yeah, and I'm glad for him, but its still just him chucking threes. They just happen to be going in.

Would still like to see him going inside and putting pressure on the defense more. What if the threes aren't going in during game 7?


He's been putting pressure on the defense more this game than any other game though. Every other game he's been chucking.

It’d be so easy for either of these to fold but so impressive that neither is willing to.

But its still mostly just him chucking threes. High variance will work out sometimes, and sometimes it won't. Still want him to do other stuff.

Saving energy for game 7 haha

Definitely better this game. I'm glad to see it. I like him a lot, which is the only reason I'm so critical.

Tatum is the oldest 24 year old in NBA history. So much playoff experience and milage on his body.
