|

Yea I said it.  Dont get me wrong Tatum looks special in the playoffs but im confident that Kuzma woukd have at least be better offensively than Tatum has in these playoffs. I also think Ingram would have been able to match or exceed what browns been doing on offense. But ill admit brown has the better body for defense.

totally agree. We were in play off hunt until final weeks. Either give us kyrie for the amount of games they had him or give us 10 more games with zo and we are in in the West. Our guys will be the league starting next year |

I feel like this is a terrible time to make this argument...
those 2 kids are balling in the ECF and going to game 7 against the guy we hope to sign. |

About the same as Luke. 25 wins year one, 40 year two in the east. |

Weird that the subject is Kuzma Ingram instead of Ball Ingram. I would think we would compare those two based on draft position and age (due to the ineptitude of the Nets but that is a different story). Because I could argue that Ball & Ingram > Tatum & Brown. I couldn't convince the national media, casual fans, or some people on LG... But I could make a fantastic case.
Now if you said Kuzma > Tatum & Brown... well I'll just leave that right there... |

Let's compare their Playoff stats.

Al Horford is the only All Star they're playing with so...

Would be nice if this were true, but right now today, it is not.
I’ll go Randle > Smart though. |

| To be seen fellas... I’ll give those green kids their due, they breaking into the playoff with authority. I do expect Kuzma and Ingram to eventually be the better 2 out of the 4 but they need to taste playoff ball first |

| Premature thread is premature. Let's wait until the young Lakers get their first taste of the playoffs before we even begin to make such bold claims. Yeah, I hate the Celtics and it's painful to watch Boston have so much success without their two best players but their young guys are quite impressive. |

So they didn’t have Kyrie for 60 games this season? Ok I must have dreamt that.

Those green kids played with two allstars and that’s why they’re in the playoffs. If we had Paul George this season with our guys I’m sure we’d be in the playoffs as well. So no it’s not premature.

They are playing in the playoffs without two all stars and they are performing well.

Horford is a legit all star this year.

| Disagree. Tatum has a better offensive game due to his dribbling skill. And let's not forget Tatum is also younger. I have no doubt Ingram is better than Brown though |

It remains to be seen, but I can say this:
The only rivalry in sports that matters (Credit: Championship count) is young and healthy once again.
I take Untouchable/Kuz over Tatum/Brown due to length, if I’m trying to be unbiased.

He shouldn't be considered as such. |
