Trae Young is Ridiculously Underrated

JustBuzzin · Post #281 » by **JustBuzzin** » Sun Sep 17, 2023 1:21 am

Doncic fanboys "Luka took his team to the conference finals a few years ago".

Trae Young "Ayo P they act like I aint do that **** either".

Trae Young really got a case for most underrated player in the NBA if you ask me. That Atlanta squad he got to the ECF was not really talented.

Can we merge this with the “Doncic is overrated” thread?

I don't think he's underrated. He's hated, which means haters are jealous of him, which means he's being rated appropriately.

Team USA decided he wasn't as useful as Austin Reaves. The Players called him the most overrated player in the league.

He literally tapped out in the closing seconds of an elimination playoff game against Miami.

The very definition of empty stats.

These are lies that essentially support the OP's assertions.

Trae has taken his team to the play-in the past two years. He’s properly rated and if anything, is overrated.

Really need to see his effort on defense improve. It’s not just that he’s really small; he just doesn’t work on that end either. One screen will take him out of a play. He needs to go to the Curry camp for small guards who can’t defend good and want to learn to do other stuff good too. And work on his lower body strength.

Best passing guard in the league?

Unpopular opinion

Trae Young is on the same tier level as Luka.

They both have a conference Finals appearance on their resume.

While I agree that Trae is massively underrated, that's a ridiculous statement lol. Give Luka Trae's teammates and I think they could win it all.

Trae Young is not on the same level as Luka. Luka is without a doubt top 5 player in the league. I dont think Young is top 10.

There's more to the game than just statistics. If that were the case then Karl Anthony Towns is one of the greatest big men in history lol.

WTF!

You seriously think Collins/Capella and role players was a legit roster?

Nobody had the Hawks in ECF that year.

It's crazy how much people try to defend Luka. Give Trae Young a teammate like Kyrie and let's see how far the Hawks get.

What makes Luka a top 5 player?

Where is the MVP or the Finals appearance?

You don't get the elite of the elite title until you accomplish something of significance.

Sorry but Luka is a top 10 player with potential to be a top 5 player.

With comments like this I don't think I can take you seriously. The fact you even brought up Kat and his stats is crazy. His stats aren't even that great. To begin with. Dude acting like Kat was putting up Shaq numbers.

Luka has a very clean statistical case for top 5.

The MVP knock is fair. He was 5th in '22, 6th in '21 MVP, and 8th in '23 voting. Jokic, Embiid, Giannis,..Steph, KD, and Lebron are well past their prime at this stage,...so is Harden...so is Kawhi...Tatum has had much better teams every season.

Did you watch both Mavs vs. Clippers series? That was the Clippers at full power. It's all jokes now but Kawhi and PG at the top of their games with help, and Luka is somehow (arguably) the best player in the series both times. Those were top 5 player performances. Full stop.

The Finals knock isn't fair. He hasn't had the teams and the west is loaded every year. Luka has a decent case for top 5.

Hes had multiple years of averaging 25/11 on great percentages so I have no clue wtf you're talking about lol. Compare his 25/11 to other big men and you'd think he's close to their level but we all know the truth.

I was referring to last years team with Murray/Hunter/Capela/Collins.

And I give Trae his credit for carrying that particular team to the conference finals, which is why I said he is massively underrated. He just isn't close to Luka and if you think they're on the same level, you're the one who doesn't understand the sport you're watching lol.
