Tatum and Ben Simmons values?

Dnic · 07-02-2018, 05:55 PM

Being that Lebron is out of the East and Celtics and 76ers are front runners to win the East do their card values go up?

I don't think it's much of a secret that whoever takes over the east will see values rise.

Unless it's Toronto

Bold prediction: Tatum and Simmons are never worth more than they are right now.

Way too much speculation going on.

Ben Simmons will stay hot especially if he develops a jumps shot.

Tatum will too only if Hayward, Kyrie and brown don’t take shots away from him.

I am literally praying to Jesus that Ben Simmons starts hitting 3's.

He has to start shooting them before he can hit them. Aron Baynes looked like Reggie Miller compared to Simmons in the playoffs last year.

It's time for Tatum to start his finals appearance streak. But obviously it would be better to get wins than losses so it's ok. No way they could have hung with GS without Kyrie and Hayward last year anyway. At full health i don't see much in their way in the east for the next several years unless Philly can add a couple pieces. I hope to see him improve and turn into a beast over the next couple years. He needs to get a little more aggressive he plays a little timid at times if he can do that and put up 20-25 a game the Celtics are gonna be a real tough team to handle. When he wants to score he can score and the Celtics are much better offensively. There's only one ball and only so many shots per game though so we'll see. Celtics are starting to look like the Spurs teams that won several championships. Lots of depth.

Unless he’s THE GUY leading the team (he won’t be), his value will tank.

Anybody want to guess what Thompson/Draymond cards go for?

Eh, im not worried about it right now. He just turned 20 a couple months ago. He's got several more years before he even enters his prime. Kyrie and Hayward will most likely be gone by then.

Are you really comparing Tatum to Thompson and Draymond lol?

Ben can shoot, he just doesn't and I truly think it has to do with nerves... something he will work past. He rushed out of the tunnel on opening night before his name was called for the first time in an NBA game. He would take 1 dribble at the line then throw up a foul shot that seemed rushed (eventually switched to 2 dribbles in the spring and it looked much much better. And how bad was that speech when he got ROY? I love his game, think he is going to be a perennial all-star but his biggest flaw is not liking the spotlight on him. This video is from a year ago, I remember seeing this on IG that day. This isn't Fultz we are talking about, he didn't FORGET how to shoot like this. (Sixers fan, I can take throw that jab)

I think his value goes up from here but may not pass that insane point from 6 months ago until he gets his first all-star nod.... this winter.
