Tatum has more IT factor than Davis

When you compare the 2 players, Davis is obviously the better player and even more so has considerably more talent and upside. However, the more I think about it, I would not trade Tatum as he has this special feeling swagger IT factor. Who dunked on LeBron in game 7 followed by a three. How is it the Celtics are in the finals without Irving and hayward in tatums rookie season with him being the go to guy while Davis can’t win year after year. I know that skills competition is just a play thing but it was Larry bird like him winning on half court shot like he did. His prediction that the Celtics will win the finals is another thing. Even if they get swept in the first round, he has a special IT factor. The best comparison is Paul pierce. Even though he was never the best player he was a very good player who had that special passion which led to a nba title with the memorable game 7 against LeBron. I see Tatum doing those kinds of things and playing that way. Davis, on the other hand, had a little Dwight Howard in him. Yes the most talented player doesn’t always get the job done and he did less with the pelicans than Tatum did with the Celtics without Irving and Hayward. So simply put, there
Are intangibles and I think tatums big one is his IT factor and it will be a big mistake to trade Tatum.
