Watching I'm getting excited for Tatum this season. Kuzma is 24, Tatum turns 22 in March. 2 and a half years older and tatum wasn't getting pushed around in the post on offense or defense. Both were taking shots you take in 1 on 1, not normally in actual NBA games so whatever that is worth.

Tatum just needs to keep eating right and lifting right. When he's 24 and body has matured on top of total muscle gain, he will be a PF in the league, and probably an All star one.

Tatum does look stronger. Wish he showed a little more variety in his moves. Seemed like he always was trying to go to the same spot every time. Granted, small sample size.

First round
The tournament begins with 32 teams divided into eight groups. Each team within each group plays one another once. When those games have been played, the top two teams from each group advance into the second group stage. If multiple teams are tied with identical records, then the first tiebreaker is their head-to-head record against one another in the tournament, and if that doesn't settle the tie, then point differential against one another, followed by overall point differential, are used next.



(All times are U.S./Eastern)

Sunday, Sept. 1
Turkey vs. Japan, 4:30 a.m.
United States vs. Czech Republic, 8:30 a.m.

Tuesday, Sept. 3

As an Aussie I hope Tatum, Brown, Smart & Kemba dominate but Australia win. Is that too hard too ask for ? lol
