Tatum's Hype is going down?

Jayson Tatum started the 2018-2019 regular season with a bang! Averaging a double double, 21PPG 10.7RPG, on the Celtics first three games. Some says before the regular season started that the sophomore is overrated. ESPN includes Jayson Tatum in their top 50 NBA rankings. Which he did proved the haters wrong by playing like the Celtics franchise player in the early games. Especially with Kyrie struggling offensively. 




The prized sophomore was working out with his idol,Kobe Bryant, last summer.

It's pretty clear what Kobe injects to the kid. "AGGRESSIVENESS". Always demand the ball in offense and Tatum did just that on the Celtics opening game against their rival 76ers. Tatum finished the game with 23points and 9rebs, on 9/17 shooting, 1/5 beyond the arc. You can sense the "Kobe System" on Tatum in that game. Some bad shot selections and forced isolation plays. But he was not afraid to missed and keep playing aggressive 'cause that's how Kobe play. Some Celtics fans claimed that the workout with Kobe didn't help Tatum to be better, but in my opinion I really like Kobe injected "aggressiveness" to Tatum's game.

BUT what happened Tatum?  Those past games you were settling for outside shots and struggling to find the bottom of the net. You were PASSIVE again. Come on wake up and be consistent in your game.
