What is Biden doing.

That’s the last person he should meet up.

Trying to win Wisconsin.

 

[smedroc]

Tatum's jumper is sickening.

He better not fall of stat wise in the playoffs again

 

[WASHED KING]

Bunch of basketball being played today and tomorrow.

No reason not to turn $5 to $30,000. Put them Parlays in.

He was the best player on the floor in the Heat series last year

25/10/5 on 47% from the field.

Just can’t have another series like the Golden St one. I’d bet he doesn’t.

Tatum is WAY more confident driving to the rim which is a good sign.

If Glenn weasels his way into the cabinet, yo really an all time finesser …Secretary of defense

Politics comes natural to him.

He's ahead of schedule. Just didn't have a Big man putting up 40-20 to cover it up.

Revisionist history?

Jimmy averaged 25-8-6 averaging 3 steals

Caleb Martin and Jimmy both had much better game 7's too, 26-10 and 28-7 respectively while Tatum dropped a whole 14-11 on 38% shooting when it mattered most

 

[Moheezy]

Kinda funny to think about what Horford and Lopez would’ve been had they been shooting 3s earlier in their career with how proficient they are at it now. Neither attempted them AT ALL for like their first 8 seasons.

Lopez's game is so fascinating. He went from main offensive weapon and strictly a post up threat with no defence to being a spot up 3pt shooter to being a DPOY candidate in his mid 30s. He has re-invented his game a few times and it prolonged his career.

One was 21 and one was 23 but keep waking up with your dementia

While guys like Enes Kanter, Greg Monroe and Jahlil Okafor had their careers end.

It’s not?

Shot better than Jimmy and the stats are with him spraining his ankle in the first minute of Game 7 (same injury that forced Jimmy to come out and miss a subsequent game in the round before) and basically having to be a decoy since he couldn’t move. Never brought the ball up and barely even dribbled.

I assume you forgot that part.

Jason was a freshly turned 23 (his bday is March) and Kobe was 2 months away from 22 (bday in Aug)...4th NBA season vs 5th. Variance in experience is minimal and Tatum was SLIGHTLY better in his first Finals.

Checks out even RustyShackleford would agree.

 

[WASHED KING]

Trae Young, Devin Booker, and Jayson Tatum are all the same person just different heights. Light skin Kobe proteges.

What happened to the game I loved.

Oh so now it’s ok to round eh

No, I'm bias and play favorites.

Also, if Wemby doesn't win a gold medal in his career that's a knock. No player in the top 5 doesn't have a gold medal.

However lets be consistent and compare Kobe to Jaylen Brown because that's closer to his role
