1) You said Tatum is top 3 among playoff players in the Eastern conference. We said Embiid, Giannis, and KD are all better. You said he's above KD, which is insanity. There is no argument, KD has always been a better player and that has not changed.

2) Even mentioning Smart (who has never even averaged 6 APG in 8 seasons in the NBA) in the same category of passing as someone like Harden is beyond laughable. Almost a bad as saying Tatum is better than KD LOL. Smart is a good passer no doubt, but as good or better than Harden? Crack.

This is a new level of homering from you, and it's interesting. Last year you said you weren't even watching the NBA and were done with the Celtics in the regular season when they sucked. Now you care sooooo much about them in the regular season :rolleyes:



Right now, Tatum is a top 3 player in the east

Harden is washed up and mediocre

Celtics are better than the 76ers

1) By saying that Tatum is a top 3 player in the East, you're saying that he's better than either KD, Embiid or Giannis. WHICH ONE OF THOSE THREE IS HE BETTER THAN!?!?? SAY IT PLEASE

2) Harden is washed up? Averaging 23 points, 10.2 assists, 7 rebounds, and 1.5 steals per game with a 62% TS since joining the 76ers. Oh, did i mention he's only averaging 3.3 turnovers per game which is BY FAR the lowest of his career since his OKC days when he wasn't even a starter?

3) Celtics are below the 76ers in the standings, so stay small.

I’ve already said it cock sucker. Right now Tatum is playing better than KD. He will win his 3rd Eastern conference player of the week award this week and it won’t be close. Bookmark it.

Yep harden is washed up. His shooting numbers are returning to earth. Keep on posting TS% like that won’t diminish in the playoffs when his FT rate goes down.

Standings lol.

You have the nerve to say that Tatum is "all around" better than KD lol

Tatum takes more shots per game (20.8 vs 20.3), yet KD scores more (29.7 vs 27.0), and KD is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY more efficient (52/38/90 vs 45/35/86). Not to mention true shooting percentage? KD at 63.3% while Tatum is at 57.5%.

Oh, so if it wasn't already clear that KD is a FAR superior scorer, how about playmaking? Yep, KD killing him there too averaging 6.1 APG vs Tatum's 4.3 APG. And KD has a muuuuuuch higher AST% while on the floor.

So yeah, KD a better scorer AND playmaker. Just a better player in general and it's not even up for debate.

Imagine doing all of this shit talking about how great of a scorer Tatum is when he's a 6'8'' big body wing shooting below 45% and only scoring 1.3 points per shot. KD shits on him from every perspective and Harden is lightyears ahead of him as a playmaker.

PPS = Points Per Shot Attempt

Harden PPS: 1.62

Durant PPS: 1.46

Tatum PPS: 1.3


Tatum = new age Melo. Just an inefficient black hole on offense worried about his stats and nothing else.


*Insert complaints about free throws like they aren't part of the game or something*

You know who won it two weeks ago? Kevin Durant.

Big deal. Dude has a million of them, and an MVP award. He can score 30 points a game and actually do it efficiently, unlike Tatum.

You keep bringing up season averages like it’s relevant. My argument is right now, Tatum is ahead. Will that change come post season? Maybe, but right now, Tatum is playing better than KD.

It’s kinda funny, first I said Tatum would be a top 10 player this season. You all laughed and ridiculed me, but it ended up being true. You might think I make outlandish statements, but go back through the history books and you’ll find I have a knack of being correct about all my predictions.

Nice, and Tatum can defend and win games, unlike Durant

Keep bringing up efficiency (over the course of a whole season lol!) like it’s the only relevant stat in basketball 😂
