Tatum is still a really good player but I'm not confident on him reaching his ceiling or potential and IMO he is a little overrated. I'm not sold on keeping him nor am I sold on trading him BUT I am starting to wonder if a trade should be made while there is still hope of him making that next step up. Better to trade him now while he has high value....bc his value could take a hit if he continues to struggle shooting and turnovers.
Tatums Pros: can score, rebounds well, defense is solid
Cons: shot selection, decreasing shooting % across the board FG, 3p, and FT, turnovers
IF it is time to trade him what is his value?
One trade idea(my own, didn't read anywhere) that I find interesting is with Washington.
Tatum/Kanter for Bryant/Bertans... works in trade machine
Bertans: has been killing it this year from 3 and plays decent defense and rebounds: 6'10.
Bryant: has offensive tools and has really been working on his defense.
BOS Lineup:
Kemba/Brown/Hayward/Bertans/Bryant with Smart/Theis off the bench
For Washington: Tatum/Beal is a nice combo but not sure they really would trade Bryant
