Why does the media say Morant is a superstar while refusing to call Tatum

[AirBonner]

A superstar? What has Morant done?

cause he has charisma. like I said the other day. the media won't anoint zion as the face of the league because he's too bland and shy. same with tatum. at the end of the day this is a business like wwe. can't sell promos if you're not good on the stick

that ain't it. tatum has a kobe skills highlight reel at his disposal

Is OP FINALLY working out that the media has agendas, creates narratives and isn't even real or worth reading or watching?

The f"ck is this?

Haven't you watched a Celtics' game on a national broadcast?

He is the media darling. They are always hyping him up and talking about his son and shit.

Nba mvp vote straw poll had Tatum in the lead currently.

[90sgoat]

Tatum is the Durant of this generation in terms of playing style.

It's efficient and technically impressive, but also a bit slow and methodical.

Morant is the Derrick Rose and Iverson mould that we all know as a superstar.

Who specifically doesn’t think Tatum is a superstar?

[expansionera]

Liberal media is going to promote g*y and queer players

Tatum is just not as exciting to watch. It depends on what you mean by "superstar" though. JT is definitely a top 10 player in the league and he just made the Finals so he's clearly in that upper-echelon. Morant does produce more highlights and has more personality so he's more popular with the kids & in the social media.

tatum isn't as exciting as ja. but how many guys are. that isn't a reason not to talk about tatum. obviously when a guy tries jumping over people on every dunk attempt hes gonna get more recognition. but even when vince was doing his thing kobe and tmac were still getting more press for their superior skills

[Street Hunger]

Tatum deserves to be called a superstar too

I wonder if morant himself is one of those, hmmm...
