I think the question is why does the league overrate Tatum or at least prefer him to most equally talented players

Like for example whenJaylen Brown is better any given night and more interesting off the court

prior hype

Brown is better any given night because Tatum is double teamed all the time. We saw this last year when Tatum went down in game 7 vs Miami and Brown took a shyt on the court as the #1 option.

Tatum old school vibes for a young player, he doesn't really relate to children tbh

jt is taking priority with the opponents defensive game plan & guarding anywhere from perimeter to post at any given time

he does everything really easy no extras(like a supercharged iso.joe.jesus¿) & is relatively buttoned up emotionally

it's seemingly the trend to hate on bro

We have evidence of LeBron jersey sales being high no matter where he's been

Im just making dumb illogical statements like you did in your post

Has Isaiah Thomas's jersey ever been Top 5, since Celtics is an automatic bump? How about Marcus Smart's or Avery Bradley's? Lol

The hype around Tatum caused him to be slightly overrated but people have taken it so extreme that he’s now becoming underrated

I get it, he can be frustrating to watch because it feels like he could be so much better than he is if he adjusted his style of play. But let’s stop the bullshyt. Throughout this entire season and for years there has been no Celtic that has been more impactful all around than Tatum.

As far as Ant, like I said before he’s the shiny new toy. This is his first real playoff run and he’s become a media darling and fan favorite. We’ll see the real feelings come out next season once that honeymoon wears off and there’s a new player to hype
