NYRaider Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 2 minutes ago, resilient part 2 said: Also watch the game yesterday and they said Luka has more touches of the ball than any player in the NBA and that's including LeBron James James Harden Russell Westbrook Giannis antetokounmpo or anyone else by at least 10%. He is playing great but having a ball in his hand so often allows him to stuff stats Russell Westbrook. In the meantime Jayson Tatum if you watch any Celtics game please only one roll amongst many individuals who need the ball and Brad Stevens has them flowing like San Antonio Spurs. Even quiet Leonard was not known as a great scorer while I'm San Antonio because he often had to move the ball. That's all I got for now gents have fun with your day in the sun after Jayson Tatum's laughable game yesterday Luka is averaging 9 more points than Tatum while only taking 1.4 more shots per game. Luka can have an insane usage rate because he's an elite player. You're claiming that Tatum isn't scoring more because he's in a system that moves the ball around? He's averaging over 18 shots per game! That's the 16th most in the entire league... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amac Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I like his ceiling but I think you guys overhyped what Tatums accomplished because he was the best offensive player on a playoff team by default as a rookie. Now we are supposed to believe he’d be a superstar if he were on another team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mox Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I have to say this site has definitely influenced me a bit though. When I have time Mitchell, Tatum, and Barrett are definitely in my top 10 for guys I've kept an eye on this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle21121 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Celtics fans declared Tatum gods gift to basketball like 8 games into his rookie season. The strong opposition and harsh criticism was brought on by yourselves. You must realize this? Also come on yea you can mark it off as a very bad game but going 1-18 against Luka’s team is pretty funny. Like the timing is so good. You can’t help but laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Brown Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 my fave was when rj barrett was being touted as better than tatum and tatum hit a game winner in his face so don't get me wrong, i understand why it's funny but one celtics fan claiming tatum to be better than luka isn't the fanbase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spida is the young Wade and Luka is the young LeBron, he's gonna recruit him to Utah in a couple of years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree Luka has an insane usage rate because he's one of the only players on that whole Squad except for KP who by the way doesn't look too sharp well Jayson Tatum has to share the ball with so many other players and sometimes will force the shot when he gets Iced Out. Buchan can feel his way through every game cuz the balls Always In His Hands he can run a pick-and-roll whenever he wants amongst many other things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Brown Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I mean I think it's pretty obvious that Tatum is nowhere near the IQ player or offensive creator that Doncic is already. Tatum can sometimes create for others out of a pick and roll but Doncic is their point guard. Ya'll wild for comparing the two. I like the PG comparison to Tatum. I think that's his ceiling. That's a great ceiling. On the other hand, if Brown continues to improve, then I want an entire wolf pit thread dedicated just to apologizing about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buchan can feel his way through every game cuz the balls Always In His Hands he can run a pick-and-roll whenever he wants amongst many other things KP: 18.3 ppg | 7.9 rpg | 1.7 apg | 2.4 bpg on .401 FG | .375 3FG | .799 FT JT: 19.4 ppg | 7.7 rpg | 2.3 apg | 0.7 bpg on .390 FG | .421 3FG | .767 FT So KP doesn't look to sharp but his numbers are almost identical to Tatum's who you're arguing is better or as good as Doncic. Tatum has a 26% USG right now that's the 36th highest in the league and he's averaging 18.2 shots per game which is 18th most in the league. He gets the ball a lot and puts up a ton of shots every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
