Also they didn’t put this team around Trae imo

The dejounte Murray hawks was the last time I think they did that

This is youth and Jalen Johnson

Otherwise they woulda moved risacher for a more proven player

The Trae Young era ended this past summer

They put size and length ⏸️ around Trae. Looks like it to me but it’s a moot point now.

I don’t think Trae can become a serviceable defender ala steph curry

I think he will always be bad but it’s just his body he can’t help it

He needs to go somewhere where he can be what Fox is to wemby

Like he contributes but nobody gives a fuck about him

Like if he was in Boston and he played with Jaylen Brown and Tatum

Or on the Magic playing next to black, bane and Franz

Its tough because even with the Fox comparison which I completely understand what you're saying.....But Fox at least is going to hold up defensively and has shown the ability to play well off the ball

Trae sticks out like a sore thumb because he's going to get routinely haunted on defense and then when he doesn't have the ball what is he doing?

He's still an elite passer/playmaker. But his efficiency is bad now since he doesnt draw fouls like that anymore ans he was never the shooter people think he is

Its like you're either going to put the ball in his hands and live and die by the Trae or not fuck with him at all


Minnesota makes the most sense to me

Good point about him not being the shooter people think he is

I been saying that for years he’s actually not that great of a shooter and it’s wild because unless you checked you would never think that

I like Minnesota because the ball can be in his hands a lot

Johnson and Risacher were draft picks

And again if you was on Trae’s timeline Risacher wouldn’t be on the hawks right now

NAW don’t count either he’s essentially replacing bogdan/Caris levert

Dyson came by fleecing the pelicans

For KP, OO was your only big and Celtics were sellers

None of this was with Trae in mind trust me big dog
