Makes me wonder if Lloyd Pierce's offense was the one most able to maximize Trae's effectiveness.
Or if the league just caught up to him.
Most of us at the time felt he had another level to unlock. Sadly, he only regressed.

This team did terrible at finding pieces to fit alongside Trae. It is like we had an incomplete puzzle and instead of finding the correct pieces we tried and shoved Monopoly pieces in it hoping it looked the same.

To this day, I believe that was the time to be aggressive and make a move for a another star player to play beside TY.
He did have that going for him. During the final minute of a game when we needed a big shot he would show up. The ice chills and goosebumps would happen. I'm always team Trae even if I didn't want him here.Jamaaliver wrote:All done in a Hawks jersey...
