I think the best part about Tatum’s season so far is that when he’s gone up against other MVP caliber players, he’s owned them. His numbers against contending teams and MVP candidates are incredible.

[leetraviusmckay]

I love Tatum when he's sharing the ball and getting his teammates wide open shots.

[lueyville]

You should look up what Malika said about Tatum last season.

[ufuidwu]

I actually love watching this crew they got great chemistry Zach always comes in with an unexpected joke at the end!

[dremoore]

I think people have to understand is Tatum is getting 31 and 8 and 5 with defense he doesn’t have to put up luka or Gianns numbers they don’t have second options

[leetraviusmckay]

Tatum realized he can still get his also while still getting his teammates involved.

[nikkrelj]

Tbh jason tatum AND brown were both stat padding and played the whole 4th while up by 30. If he didn't play thst 4th he would be close to a triple double and would have under 20 pts. I aint hating just saying

[ayogeorge]

Bruh who cares players get triple doubles all the time but Tatum gets one for the first time in his career and they make a big deal like what media just got favorites

[willmattew]

He’s only 24 wait till that grown man strength and body comes in bruhh he on his way

[lurkintomgaming]

he was all NBA team 1 last year, hes on the best team in the NBA, hes scoring more ppg than any celtic ever ( best franchise of all time) Tatum is a top 3 player in the NBA. hes an MVP frontrunner and an absolute superstar, lethal scorer and a bull on defense. stop sleeping on Tatum. best wing in the league. all he needs to improve is his distribution, and he is

[stephentanws]

Perk be inventing new words every episode. 😂 Jonah Complex

[truthseeker]

They steady trying to force this type of narratives down our throat (pause)

[willg]

Giannis, Steph, Luka, Joker and KD are all clearly better, and you can argue others

[diymadness]

It be nice if Perk actually watched the game he is commenting on. "Tatem decided he was going to be the best player on the floor". Huh? Through 3 quarters, Luka was better but Tatum had the better team. Luka didn't play the 4th quarter in which Tatum did to pad his stats and get the triple double.

[pauljansen]

He sure is....along with Giannis, Luka, Jokic and

[cmsv]

Give Luka that same Celtics Squad, they'd cook the entire league. Tatum has the greatest supporting cast in the league. This people didn't even watch the game, the Celtics were up by 25 and Tatum was Stat Padding tf outta the 4th quarter. 🤡🤡

[ujhpl]

He got to win something. If not it is just stats

[marcusjmalone]

Best player on the floor is luka. Tatum is on the best team. It’s a difference perk

[dontaviousdouglas]

1. Giannis
2. Steph
3. Luka
4. Jokic
5. Tatum

Luka & Jokic Are Interchangeable. If Tatum Tightens Up His Mid Range And Uses It More & Stamps It With The Chip He’s The Best In The World. Him Not Using The Mid Range To His Advantage As Much As He Should Is His Only Weakness Right Now.

[ask]

So we're not gonna talk about his numbers going into 4th and the clear stat padding that be going on? They were 20 up going into the 4th, the numbers don't reflect how the game really went. These analysts are disingenuous.
