Tatum bulking?

[18isGREATERthan72]

I just saw on Tatum's instagram story from last night and this morning and both were posts of what he's eating.  The first looked like a plate full of soul food, and this morning for breakfast he had a plate with eggs and bacon and some french toast covered in fruity pebbles.

It's possible he's just taking a small amount of time off from dieting and nutrition to relax.  Remember he's had a long first two seasons for a 2 year pro.  Maybe he's been given the goal of trying to put on more weight for the upcoming season though as well.

Hopefully he is attempting to bulk up. Maybe he is is planning on driving to the rim, instead of settling for a pull up, Kobe-esque jumper this year. Eat man eat!!!

Fruity Pebbles on pancakes? I’m pretty horrified.

I would love if that was the case... he'd essentially be Giannis with a jump shot... that's unstoppable

When my kids were 18-22 years old they ate everything in sight because the were athletic, in great shape and had a metabolism that was off the charts high. All this just seems like normal everyday eating habits for a kid that age.

I am guessing Tatum's body burns through calories and carbs like it's nobody's business. I think he would need to be eating way more stuff to be considered bulking up.

Maybe I need to see the amount of food, but those meals sound normal to me. When I was his age and playing basketball a few hours a day, I would need to eat double what you mentioned just to maintain my weight. I couldn't even imagine the amount of food I would have needed to eat to gain weight at that time.

Glad to hear what Tatum ate for breakfast this morning

That's overstating things by quite a bit. Giannis is a lot longer and more athletic than Tatum. Tatum could bulk up, but he'll never be as tall, long or athletic as Giannis.

Please take this in the best way possible,  but if you are analyzing Tatums diet based off Instagram posts it may he time to take up a hobby of some sort.

Come to think of it, we could all probably use a time out.

Um, wow.  But okay.

I don't sit there and analyze his diet based off Instagram.  This could be said about anybody who has ever signed up on an internet forum about a sports team.  It's the off season.  There have been discussions in the past about Tatum needing to put on weight, and this is merely an indication of that potentially.  It's called having a discussion.  Look at my join date and how many posts I have... I hardly mouth breath reading these forums and formulating responses to topics as I sweat in an apartment with a wife beater on.

Yet that's exactly what you did. In either case I meant no disrespect. Just calling attention to how crazy every fan is.

I just want Tatum to be the 2017-18 Tatum...free from Kobe's influence....just the gifted athlete and skilled player that showed us SO MUCH promise...

To go into detail - take Kobe's FIRE...his DETERMINATION...his CLUTCHNESS...but you don't need to learn his fadeaways or his jumpshot form...

Just do YOU...his game is beautiful (IMO) all its own....a little bit of Gervin and some Pierce.

I don't know if it's any indication but this is Tatum's first offseason of going pretty much ghost! He and people on his team use to put out video and pictures galore but this offseason there is nothing! He doesn't even get into his vacation photos and videos, the few I have seen anyway. He seems to be hiding intentionally, so maybe it's because he wants to reveal a new body for next season.
