key word is "supposed".


They probably aren't. They're the most talented but we forget they're still green as fukk. In a year or two, we might see a different result, but right now they're learning playoff lessons young teams learn. Now, if we're gonna compare the two players to say, Tatum, Tatum looks more poised and ready for this situation than they are.
Tatum has no where near the pressure those other 2 have. Tatum is playing carefeee basketball within the system and banking off a lot of hustle plays. Simmons and Embiid are being put in postitions where they just have to create

I agree. That said, I think Tatum and Simmons share similar value to their teams at the moment and Tatum's just rising up to the challenge better in this series. Philly's down 2-0 going home and the crowd is on their side. Playing uptight hasn't gotten Ben far. He better be loose as hell for game 4.

So Tatum is being ask to create his offense like Simmons and Embiid??

You do know a lot of action is ran through him? He’s the c’s biggest threat on offense in these playoffs. He creates offense differently than Ben or embiid creates offense.he just does it effortlessly. nikkas still think you have to be ball dominate to dictate the flow and offense of the game? :russ:

Edit: and we gonna ignore phillys system that involves, handoffs, cuts, uptempo and three point shooters. Where shooters are constantly moving coming of pin down and curls. All Ben has to do is stop at the freethrow line and look behind and to the left and boom there’s a shooter. I’m sure if Tatum couldn’t shoot and lacked an offensive arsenal that’s what he would be resorted to doing, but I digress.
