On Tatum and the Face of the League
These are some comments from a youtube video by Stephen A Smith and Shannon Sharpe
Jaylen Brown is clearly better than Tatum and that?s why Tatum can?t be face of the league. Everyone else they are trying to push as the next face is the best player on their team.
I keep coming across this since the Finals last year.
well jason tatum is a star player but not a super star.. and that's it. he is also not a generational talent like luka doncic.
No player is disrespected more on Twitter than Tatum.
These idiots obviously haven't been on social media. JT is consistently disrespected.
He?s boring. It?s nothing about him that make people want to be like him. Jah and Zion athleticism out of this world good play high flyers are marketable. Ant the play, attitude, leadership marketable. Tatum after then ecf aginst the cavs he?s been boring ppl questioned who the leader of that team was. He?s not even the face of his own team
That is a fair remark. Who has been the face of the league that hasn't had a highlight friendly game?
- Julius Erving
- Bird
- Magic
- Jordan
- Iverson
- Shaq
- Kobe
- LeBron
- Steph
A lot of charisma with those guys too.
Tatum the new Bron these days with the hate
hes a great player, who plays for a great team. he's like Tim Duncan to me, very boring player, great but boring
Duncan was never the face of the league. Not that any Duncan fans or Spurs fans would care. He had a tremendous career. So will Tatum.
Tatum does nothing at a historically great level, just everything is very good for his time, he won't reach peak T-Mac
Peak T-Mac or Peak Tatum?
Tatum lacks personality and his game is boring. He's a jack of all trades master of none. Most superstars have either a great personality that makes them marketable or have an elite aspect to their game or both, tatum has neither. Great player though, easily top 5-7 player but there's not one thing that people can say about tatum that makes him memorable. In a sense he's a worse Tim Duncan, from a marketing standpoint but unlike tatum, Duncan was constantly winning as the best player and was arguably the best defender in the league.
I like Tatum but he boring like he don?t say nothing. Hell even Steph gone beat his chest a little bit. Show us some type of personality.
Tatum has the same demeanour as Duncan. That?s why he?s not getting the same shine.
tatum hoing to be like Duncan? silent assassin end up with 5 chips couple mvps low key and theyll look back and call him one of the greatest
Can't say I dislike all the Duncan comparisons. I love Duncan.
