Yeah, Trae's absolute garbage. That's why the Mavs are in such a better place than Atlanta this year.

Bold Prediction: I guarantee Trae Young will never win a single playoff series his entire career. :hoop:

ATLANTA HAWKS

Trae Young explains why fellow NBA players voted him 12th-best guard in Eastern Conference this season

Gilbert Arenas couldn’t believe that Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young ranked just 12th among Eastern Conference guards in voting by fellow players for this year’s All-Star Game. The former NBA star reacted to the outcome, joking that the players who voted should undergo drug testing.

I really hate these kind of headlines then the actual 'article' gives us nothing.
'All players don't vote' is the explanation - such a nothing comment for the 'headline'

Trae should have never been compared to Steph anyways. He's not even remotely on the same level.

Full question and response for context. Which matters.

Trae Young was heavily compared to Stephen Curry early in his career. Did you ever buy into it?

(Laughing) A small, light-skinned guard that can shoot the deep 3s. The NBA loves to compare.

Now, Trae has definitely pushed himself into his own category. I can definitely say for sure that he’s a way better playmaker than Steph and he’s a better isolation scorer, right? But obviously, there’s different things that he does better and Steph does better. I just feel like, at this point in the league, they do have similarities in the oohs and the ahhs when they hit a crazy 3, cross somebody up. I can say that they are similar (that way).

But be that as it may, Trae Young is his own person and his own guy stepping into his own in the league. It’s great to be compared to a guy like that. (But) I feel like he wants to make his own name.

Ok Trae is a comedian .  :lol: :lol:

Per KL Chouinard:

 I asked AJ Griffin about how he kept TOs low and Trae, standing nearby, deadpanned something like, “I’ve got TOs covered.”
:lol: :lol: :lol:
