IMO he did it to send a message to Jaylen Brown. You wasn’t gonna play as much as you thought, cuz I can’t coach anyway. I can go with any combination picked at random and win. Steph is gonna play tho.
Someone had to sacrifice because KD is playing. I don’t quite understand the people yelling that Jrue or Steph should sit. Different positions and skill set. You could argue that maybe White or Ant could lose some minutes for Tatum but Ant seems to be defending well and White is the ultimate role player. TBH, I’m not surprised Tatum fell out of the rotation and I don’t really see an issue with it.
