Trae is like a mad super villain, the crowd's hate fuels him: they were chanting "FUCK Trae Young"

his reaction:

A couple of days ago Trae was overrated, not good enough to build around and Atlanta needed to move on though.

One game doesn't change that

Just like if KAT has a good game, it doesn't stop him from being soft as baby shit

 

[Complex]

Disappointing loss by Boston

They have White, Brogdon, Smart and Brown

That's the best set of defensive guards in the league

I agree with you about KAT but Trae's not soft, and Trae ain't the reason the Hawks aren't contending for championships...



like they usually do.

 

[Mr. Met]

Gotdamn, what did I miss?

 

[therealjondoe]

Tatum again

 

[geechiedan]

honestly when your down by one you don't need to put up a three it was REALLY not a good choice considering how much time he had to work to a higher percentage shot..... but Trae was lightin it up from that range all night so

 

[REDLINE]

Come on man!

Can we be honest?

The Hawks have one championship and it was in 1958.

Since Trae's got there he's got them in the playoffs and in the conference finals.

In short, he's doing his job. The Hawks have had a couple hundred players since 1958. So it's not Trae's fault that the Hawks aren't champions.

No doubt that he helped bring that organization to another level. What you said is very true.

I’m just not sold on him being sold on him being that guy.

What take 10 three pointers? He is his own worst enemy. He can get to the basket whenever.

One game, do that for the series....

He's one of the dumbest players I have ever watched. He's a bigger Trae Young, just sits around the 3 point line and jacks up 3s. Barely goes to the line to make it worth it. Just stupid. Tatum would probably be the best player in the league if he drove to the basket 75% of the time

You're might be right but also historically, the PG usually can't be the best player on your team if you want to win championships.

With exceptions like Magic, Isiah, Steph etc...

And we'll even throw AI in there since he got the Sixers to The Finals.

Trae can be "A" guy, but they need more pieces for them to truly compete for championships.

I don't think he's holding them back though.

That's the New NBA...

Memphis shot 9-42 from 3 last game...

The Lakers 10-36...

 

[SIDESHOW]

Refs are garbage. There was not a foul by KAT

For sure. He need a supplementary player that’s more consistent than him. His style is not conducive without someone that is an equal threat. They definitely don’t have that piece.

That’s ridiculous. That’s helps nothing and ultimately wasted possessions.

I agree 100%

Refs in the min vs den game are terrible

Yeah. He’s frustrating to watch. He takes away a lot of great opportunities from himself. He’s so used to shooting step back threes. He thinks he is in 2k or something.

And memphis did the same for lizzo...she had to move hers to last night

The refs are clearly trying to keep the Twolves in the game. But wolves are too dumb to take advantage of it.
