We're seeing what separates a star like Tatum and a superstar MVP like Giannis.
sadly, yes. Giannis imposing his will on the game (officiating help aside) and Tatum is not
Call It what you want, one has won it all and one hasn't.
I think that's more a result of which one has shown the desire to win the game. Tatum just hasn't shown it this game or the last one. not sure if what's going on with him. team will only go as far as he can take them.
Can we stop with this nonsense narrative that Tatum doesn't have a desire to win? Him developing his game is a key reason why this team had the turnaround it did. The Bucks are gearing their defensive game plan to throwing him off his game and they're executing it perfectly. Tip the cap the team and the coach.
Was anyone questioning Giannis desire to win win Milwaukee couldn't get over the hump? Nope, because that was a team that was learning to win. Stop with fake narratives and let this team continue to learn and develop.
It's the cringeworthy attempts at psychologically analysing NBA players through a TV screen that really make me laugh.
Didn't know there were so many sports psychologists around here.
Especially ones who can know a player's inner workings without ever talking to them
