Maybe. Tyrese was 12th man basically the whole time though. If Kerr just dropped Tatum out the rotation as soon as KD got back it'd be pretty funny. Celtics locker room will be fascinating.

I spent time in Serbia. Some of the most fun loving, passionate sports fans you’ll ever meet. They are very knowledgeable about NBA and LOVE watching “The Joker”! Still in touch with a couple of them and we’re Messaging some today.

They have a very good team and hope they get a chance to medal.

Like I said, it makes sense though. You essentially have to have one of Jrue/White on the court at all times bc they are absolute menaces on D who don’t care about anything else. Jrue’s shot falling today was just an added bonus. Then Book over him for shooting purposes. Ant over him bc he’s just better perimeter D and better without the ball. Add it all together, and Tatum gets left out.

If he doesn't get in in the 4th I'm gonna guess he's sick. They were standing in the rain for 4hrs on Friday.
Water makes people sick?

What does rain have to do with getting sick?

They should.

From an advanced analytics perspective he’s one of the top 5 best to ever play the game.

His career PER right now is #1 all time in NBA history.

Standing in 60 degree weather in the rain for hours is not good for the immune system.
But Tatum said in postgame he's fine.

Tatum not playing is interesting. He is literally one of the top 5 players on the planet. Guess he is stepping aside for the older generation. Would be shocked if he doesn’t play in the next two games.

Did Kerr make any postgame comments about the 2 DNP-CD?

Came across his interview, sounds like the plan is to only play 10 a game. Seems it may rotate who sits.

He said he messed up. Followed with he told Tatum he wouldn’t play much. Tatum is a matchup nightmare and when he locks in on defense is above average. I just don’t get it. He is much better than ant man and bam. Should have played before of those 2 for sure.

Every American post player looks like Wemby against these Japanese ladies.

Great job of Team USA Women shooting 3 of 20 from 3 PT against a Japan team that had an average height of 5’4.

Japan made 15 3’s.

If only Team USA had a guard on the roster that could shoot from the perimeter.
