Tatum looking more and more like a system guy.

Celtics damn good and win even when he struggles, let alone doesn't play. Nearly beating the Bucks tonight with no starters after the way they've played in recent games with Tatum's struggles is wild. Definitely proving Tatum is far from an MVP.

Throw Tatum on a bad team and he's.....well, yeah. We all know.

Credit Stevens for making moves to get this team so deep. There are 3 pt shooters with high BBIQ everywhere even when multiple starters are out of the lineup. Specifically adding White, Brogdon, and Horford have all looked like genius moves while giving minimal assets and not handing out/absorbing bad contracts.

Lol keep this same narrative in a months time.

We already know your the saddest cunt in the world for not drafting him, you don’t need to constantly remind us with your jealousy

AD deactivated his Instagram account after the Blazers loss, while LeBron is sitting out due to a nagging ankle issue

AD had an injury that everyone said was super awful and iirc Brian Windhorst said he heard it could keep him out remainder of the season if not longer

Yet he came back like a month after the injury and he hasn’t looked like himself at all since then

Idk if he got forced into coming back early or if he wanted to do it cause he hated sitting out the games but he needs focus on being healthy first and then playing... not that street clothes has a realistic possibility of ever truly being healthy similarly to Kawhi

Just here spitting facts, telling the people what they already know though.

Well he’s a top 5 player in the league… IS he the best player in the league? No… WAS he playing like the MVP earlier in the season? Arguably, yes. He was the favourite with bookmakers AND a lot of nba experts and analysts.

Do I think he will win the MVP? I still do. I think Tatum and the Celtics will go on another huge run post all star as they usually do and Tatum will win it due to best player on best team. Does this mean I think he is the best player in the world? No…. But he is certainly in the top 5 now and it’s not up for debate anymore.

He's not top 5 though.

Embiid, Jokic, Luka, Giannis, Curry, and KD are all better, still.

Tatum just gets all the mainstream media hype and love. He's top 10, but not a clear top 5 player yet.

KD is not better… and Tatum has passed Curry too imo

Brad Stevens basketball intelligence is next level. I thought it would hurt us to lose him as HC but he’s even better as GM / president of basketball operations

In what world has Tatum passed KD?

KD as good as he has ever been. Granted, Tatum is more durable, but that's about it.
