jayson tatum has ZERO foot speed

[Phantum]

Tatum and jaylen brown need to lock in with some vets and up their game.

They are way too inconsistent

It's 99% mental with Tatum at least. That last drive he had he looked scared.

Brown is probably hurt, he has an excuse maybe.

Tatum let his ego get too big. Jaylen Brown ego also been unchecked

Can they invite Jalen and Sengun to the sessions…?

 

[In The Zone '98]

Great player

Too robotic

Those bone bruises are no joke. Especially in a knee. His shot has zero lift on it

Colin Cowherd said Jalen Brunson is work boots and Jayson Tatum is leather loafers

i can see the similarities but i will say PG is a lil more shifter

He way more shiftier....Tatum too stiff no homo. I hate his game

That's my thing with him too.… he just is so programmed at times... Especially in the playoffs you rarely see that creativity and spontaneity

I straight up think he's not quick and explosive enough to be used like he is.



Some of it is him being too tall (almost 6'10") and upright...but prime KD was quicker at 7 feet. He just wasn't blessed with those freakish traits. His handle is also very stiff and rigid, so he can't get a step on a defender with his dribble like KD can still do, even in his washed state.



Tatum should really focus on his post game more and become less an ISO wing trying to break people down on the perimeter and more a long, sneaky strong PF who does damage in the post and can still hit the 3.

Pretty good analysis. He had a great handle but Kd at his peak and even sometimes now, the separation he got so easily with dribble is crazy for his size. Tatum ain’t on that level. Flashes but he can’t rely on it late.

Overdosed on his "bag"

TATUM IS 6'8

DURANT IS 6'11

Once in a while his outlandish takes actually hit


But this thing about calling late bloomers overachievers is not it. Some people just hit their peak later, same in academics, business, whatever
