Great fucking defense by Jayson Tatum. My man can’t throw the ball into the fucking ocean but that’s a winning play

They can go at Embiid they just have to misdirect. Up and unders, ball fakes, hesitations. He is vulnerable but will roast straight line drives. Marcus and Jaylen both with really nice drives.

"Tatum giving it to you at BOTH ends of the floor!"

Could maybe have focused on the defense which has been phenomenal.

Tatum can't buy a bucket, but he's (outside of the one play he lost Maxey) been really good on D, the boards and passing, hasn't turned it over either

If he stays true to form, I’ll be okay if Tatum lights up the scoreboard later on.

Tatum may not have his shot tonight but he is opening up the entire offense with his penetration, playing excellent D (other than the one Harris drive) and rebounding like a champ.

Tatum is having an incredible game at everything besides shooting, which, yes, is a lot but he’s bringing it.

I don’t wanna hear anyone saying Tatum is playing a bad game. He is absolutely impacting this game in a positive way.

Will definitely need his scoring, but no arguments on these points from me. He's been great, but will need even better.

That’s a fucking weak foul call. Also Embiid should have a minimum of one tech by now

I really wish they’d make a rule about complaining to the refs and then spend the first half of next season calling Ts on every possession until it finally sunk in.
