Tatum played amazing tonight
- Consistently going downhill
- Drawing fouls
- Rebounding
- Posting up relentlessly
- Locking people up on the perimeter
I just wish Tatum played like this every game

This a casual take right here. Have you been living under a rock? Lopez is a non factor vs the Celtics and Giannis shoot his worst FG% vs The Celtics so does Joel Embiid, add Bam Adebayo in there too.
One thing in common. Al”Dominik Hasek” Horford aka the DOMI-NATOR
Up this in May

Listen… I call breh Big Dikk Al for a reason…..
That reason is his D. Pause. D for defense.
He’s an old man that we keeping around just to Bang(pause) with the big boys in the playoffs. His D(pause) gets better in the playoffs.

@Squirrel from Meteor Man the thread title reminded me of this monologue from Game 5 of the 91 Finals
Here's my adaptation:
If the Detroit Pistons clinch their first victory in two months tonight, as some expect, the easy and obvious impulse would be to call it a triumph for Cade Cunningham and his teammates, which it certainly would be. But that's not the whole story. You see, if tonight is the night, it will also belong to the franchise—a working development over the last 15 years, in particular to the Pistons of the 70s, 80s, and early 2000s who embodied the spirit of their feisty city.
Tonight would be for Dave Bing and for Bob Lanier, who struggled mightily but could never quite match up with the dominant teams of their era.
Tonight would be for a pair of street fighters who may have been the best backcourt in NBA history: Joe Dumars and Isiah Thomas. Do you think they're proud to see the current Pistons continue to claw and fight for victories?
Tonight would also be for the sterling pair of forwards and scoring threats, Rasheed Wallace, now a podcaster in California, and Tayshaun Prince, a basketball executive in Memphis. Do you think they'll be watching tonight?
These Pistons of yesteryear played in both the Western and Eastern Conferences, where despite their grit, there were multiple teams they couldn't seem to beat—teams that knocked them out of the playoffs in consecutive years.
Yes, it has taken a while, but if tonight is the night, those old Pistons will enjoy a measure of satisfaction as well.
