So what? Keith Jackson used to drop Nelly's name all the time, too.

"Whoa, Nelly! Do we have a great match up here today in Tuscaloosa, where the Auburn Tigers, with their four-and-one record, will face the Crimson Tide of Alabama, who sit at five-and-oh. Yes indeed and dandy, it's going to be a hot one...".

Nothing like Keith and Frank Broyles: "Well, Keeeeeth, the thing about Flutie is his awareness, awareness, awareness!"

It's low-key critical to the future of the franchise that Tatum is not only a top 5 player but also someone that everyone around the league loves and presumably will want to play with. All that's left is to get a title during this run so there is no need for him to feel like he needs to escape elsewhere to get a better chance at it. And he is already the clear alpha so it's not like the Durant "let me see if I can win one somewhere else as the real leader" scenario.

Every single word of this is truth.
