Luka is without question the best player on the court (and maybe on the planet), but it is wild how many times he just gets blown by on D. He can't stay in front of any of these dudes.

Tatum has been doubled/trapped on less than a fifth of his offensive touches. He’s just been very passive, which is what he usually does in the biggest games. It’s always been the criticism. That and his jump shot plummeting to below 35% in the conference finals and NBA Finals.


What they are doing is by design. And it's working and they are demolishing a top NBA team. Quit looking for things that don't exist. All that matters is if game is on the line that he do what's asked. Sure, all players want to be better, but
Hes getting his ring.

He didn’t shoot well, but you are conveniently ignoring that he was 1 rebound away from a triple double

That’s not nothing

Klarvin's senseless babblings are about attempting to exaggerate everything for Doncic, while diminishing other players.
It's his usual routine.
He attempted to rewrite NBA history to crown Doncic in this post. What he said is completely false, and the upvotes just show more senselessness.

Not sure why people in NBA circles seem to be so triggered by Jayson Tatum

If he rarely plays defense "best player on the planet" doesn't really apply then.

The media treating him like a mega star while he consistently disappears offensively in the biggest games of his life probably has a lot to do with it.
