Something that isn't being discussed as much. How is Tatum's injury now? Because honestly, if his ankle injury was severe enough that he'd have to miss some of the early Finals games, then we might have been screwed anyways even if we won Monday night. No chance we'd win the Finals if he had to miss 1-2 games against that Denver team.
Some people are saying it's a high ankle sprain and he's hobbling now after a day or two of swelling, which if so would have meant he'd miss close to a week at minimum.
