All three are very dynamic young players. Lavine is the best athlete, Booker is the best shooter but Tatum may be the best all around player of the three. I think all three of them are great and you can't go wrong with any of them, but Tatum is probably the best player going forward. He looks like he's going to be a perennial all star and a beast in the playoffs every year.

How is Lavine in this discussion? Redo the thread with someone else closer to Booker and Tatum.

I will never understand why Lavine gets so underrated. As a shot maker and playmaker hes better than Tatum. Tatum is a better defender and has a bit better decision making but that doesn't make him 'miles better'.

Oh and Lavine is better than Booker.

Give Lavine CP3 and the rest of the Suns outside of Booker or Brown, Smart, Kemba and the rest of the Celtics outside of Tatum and he will win just as much or more. so yeah, stfu.

For half a season, half of which he had covid:facepalm

And youre comparing Vucevic with CP3? Do you even stop to think sometimes before saying things?

I actually like lavine alot. Kind of reminds me of a poor mans young mj. Maybe a mile is a bit of an exaggeration but basically all I'm saying is it isn't close or debatable. Tatum is clearly the better player.

You're comparing the east with the west? After the top 3 teams in the east it was wide open. A great player should be able to carry his team. Lavine has never shown he can do that

Tatum has carried teams to the conference finals more than once. Tatum has multiple 50pt games in the playoffs. What has LaVine done? Your Schtick of stanning underdogs/washed up players is pathetic. Zach has a lot of empty stat games for the bulls. Congrats

No he hasn't. Tatum have nothing but stacked roster his full career and will always shit the bed. Replace the two and the results are the same.

Which mitchell does for the jazz, so he's basically the heart of the team. Not some big overrated role player. :applause:

Mitchell would suck if he was in Lavine's position too. Jazz win because of Gobert and now Conley though I doubt they'd be winning with Conley and not Gobert.

He would suck yet jazz have three wins against memphis already since he came back in game 2. ;)

because of great play from Gobert, Conley and O'Neale as usual

They've survived Mitchell's no D and inefficient 25-64 9-27 3 8to/13 ass

But they've lost game 1 earlier without him, haven't they?

Again, this year's playoffs. In the first round to be specific. Not anything outside of that.

teams lose games. It happens. Last team to come close to being undefeated in the playoffs was almost 40 years ago. Gobert was in rare foul trouble

Well, yes. But they're much better as a team when they are complete.

Highly debatable. They were one of the best teams ion the league still when Conley and/or Mitchell missed games. Better D and ball movement without Mitchell and Clarkson for sure. Last night instead of running the pick and roll with Conley that Memphis has no answer for they resorted to Mitchell ISO that is highly inefficient
