Tatum is really good right now and I'm very pumped for his potential but he's not a MVP caliber player

Someone is certainly a bit high off this most recent win.

Tatum most definitely has future top-5 player potential, but he ain't there yet.

I'd say he's a top-5 prospect in the NBA right now.

I’m not sure I can name five players with less than 3 years experience I’d take over Tatum.

Maybe he’s top-3?

 Players having better playoffs than JT.

 LeBron
 Davis
 Mitchell
 Harden
 Durant

 So I stand corrected. He's the sixth best LoL.

Rondo and Jrue Holiday both had better playoff runs than JT. So has Chris Paul. Al Horford and Terry are both on the same level as JT. Klay Thompson is arguable too.

JT has been awesome, but his efficiency has been down and he isn't quite as good defensively as some of these guys. However, he is probably a top-3 prospect for me

I don't even think he is the best player on our team right now.
That is Brown.  Call me crazy.

You’re not crazy...what Jaylen did tonight on a balky hamstring was amazing.

10-13 FGs in 31 minutes against a desperate team...that was a great performance.

If Jaylen was full strength for the series...It would have been a comfortable sweep.

Keep an eye on Jaylen...with his hyper intensity...he could still end up better than Jayson.

It’s certainly open for debate.

 Tatum was the best player in the series. He's better than Embiid. He's top five in scoring in the biggest most competitive games we have.

 Jayson Tatum is a top five player in this year's playoffs to this point. It's not even debatable. It's just facts. He's our best player.
In the playoffs, well OK, maybe.  Your thread title is click-bait.

He's a future Hall of Famer and will be in the rafters.
