Completely fair to disagree with the rule, but doing the pull up has been given as a tech very consistently so far this year.

Pretty silly for Tatum to hit it anyway.

Pulling up allows him to bend the knees in a way that minimizes the impact of landing on his knees. It is something he's been pretty careful with always. When you prioritize your body in that situation, it's not silly. I'd prioritize the longevity of my knees too if I were a player.
