Devin Booker was a combined 9-31 his last 2 games against the Mavs. He’s a more polished scorer in terms of shooting/footwork but not enough where u can separate him from Tatum. And Tatum still has that 46 point do or die masterpiece on his resume. Booker doesn’t have anything close to that. So I don’t know why Devin Booker would be recognized as a superior offensive player. If Booker was in the drivers seat instead of Tatum they’d be done vs the Bucks….if that.


FOH

ANYONE WITH 2 EYES
CAN SEE WHY BOOKER IS
THE SUPERIOR OFFENSIVE PLAYER.

HIS BAG IS FULL ON SOME KYRIE shyt
WHILE TATUM JUST EXPLOITS MISMATCHES AND SPAMS THE
SAME SHOTS OVER & OVER.

THIS IS WHY HARDEN
HAD nikkaS FOOLED FOR YRS.


If you want to call Book a more skilled offensive player with a bigger bag i could give that up

but how you gonna say he's a "superior offensive player" when Tatum has twice as many 50 point games, and has scored more playoff 40 and 50 pieces. Where is Book's 46 piece like Tatum's game 6? Book had his chance but he went 3-14 and his team got blown off the floor. Where was that bag then?

And to say Tatum doesn't have an elite bag himself is ludicrous....he's been seeing elite defenses this entire run and maybe it's skewered you nikkas a lil. But a nikka can't drop games like these







without being a supreme 3 level offensive player himself



TATUM HAS PLAYED 72 PLAYOFF GMS AND HAS
12 THIRTY PTS GM
2 FORTY PT GMS
1 FIFTY PT GM

BOOKER HAS ONLY PLAYED 32
PLAYOFF GAMES AND HAS
9 THIRTY PT GMS
4 FORTY PT GMS.


:mjlol:YOURE DEAD
DONT BOTHER RESPONDING.


Did you really not expect people to catch you in this obvious bullshyt? Booker didn't even make the playoffs until he was 24yo and had 6 seasons of NBA experience. Tatum's first 45 playoff games were in his first three seasons when he was just 19/20/21.

Why don't we compared like to like?


Booker's last two postseasons (24/25yo, 6th/7th years in the NBA):

32 games
26.1ppg on 49.0% 2pt, 35.6% 3pt (50.4 eFG%)
13 30+ games
4 40+ games
0 50+ games


Tatum's last two postseasons (22/23yo, 4th/5th years in the NBA)

27 games
27.0ppg on 45.1% 2pt, 38.8% 3pt (50.4 eFG%)
10 30+ games
3 40+ games
1 50+ game




You tried to distort shyt by factoring in Tatum's teenage runs as if those counted the same. The last two years Tatum has been just as productive a playoff scorer as Booker has.


:mjlol:GOOFY CASUAL ASS nikkaS

WHO THE SUPERIOR OFFENSIVE
PLAYER HOE?

I actually do think he's strong, he just can't clear nikkas out of the way.

A weakling is KD, but KD's a better finisher anyway because he has much more length, lift and explosion.
I feel like both have similar lift but Tatum load takes too much time. KD is quick like a Gobert in terms of explosiveness and obviously KD has elite length

I like Devin Booker better than Tatum

:hubie:

I like how he's takin people off the dribble now and not just settling for jumpers. He used to be just a jump shooting Kardashian ass nikka but now he's takin it to the rack unlike Tatum who just settles for 3s and long ass 2s :hhh:

:gucci: Book is on a another level now. Of course he's a better offensive player right now. If you go by his current playoff numbers you might think he's the GOAT offensive player because he's on a hell of a run.

But you're quoting posts from a year ago where Tatum was putting his team on his back and leading them past the defending champs with one of the signature games in history while Book was going 9-31 in his last 2 games while getting eliminated in embarassing fashion.

I don't even understand what the victory lap is about...Book has gotten better. If Book was this Book last year they probably don't get blown off the court by 40 last year..

BOOK IS THE SAME
PLAYER HES ALWAYS BEEN
AND TATUM IS THE SAME
PLAYER HES ALWAYS BEEN.

CASUAL: "HE SPAMMED SWITCHES
AGAINST GRAYSON ALLEN AND
SCORED 46"

BOOK GOT HARD DOUBLED
IN THOSE GAMES YOUR CASUAL
ASS KEEPS MENTIONING
AND HIS TEAMMATES COULDNT
MAKE THEM PAY.

YOU CANT HARD DBL HIM
WITH KD ON THE TEAM
AND THATS WHY HES PUTTING
UP THESE NUMBERS.

lol at the nerve at calling anyone "casual" when you're out here saying a bunch of bullshyt like "spamming switches against Grayson Allen"

The fukk are you even talking about :gucci:

If you knew what you were talking about you would know that Jrue Holiday and Wes Matthews spent the most time on Tatum that game. But really the Bucks threw the entire team at him...and he picked apart their defense not just with scoring but his playmaking. Meanwhile Book scored 11 on 3-14...had damn near half his points from the line and was a -41. He did nothing on either end.

And how in the world are you saying Book is the same player? When have you ever seen him ball on this level before?

:mjlol: 30/8/4 on 61% TS while leading a 21-6 team, but nah not a superstar.

Threads like these really separate who really watches basketball and boxscore watchers who might tune into a nationally televised game once a month or something

@CHICAGO why you jump out that window like that:wow:

Tatum has another monstrous elimination game for the 2nd straight year. This time he drops an nba record 51 in a game 7 while Book?

Well he went for 4-13 for 12 points in his second straight elimination game and for the second straight year was absolute dogshyt with the season on the line
