Another post

Another glossing over his minutes allocation and shot selection in blowouts

I don’t hate Trae. I come into this thread to state what I believe is an objective fact and nobody cares to even have a discourse about it. It’s literally some mentally ill child hurling confabulated insults while being irrationally furious. Try to talk sports and it just turns into some weird, arbitrary racial insult diatribe. Every time. But I’m the one hating and being unreasonable?

Just my avatar alone sends your boy into a downward spiral. Rent free.

Only popped in just to bring up Lloyd’s suspect rotations/minutes given your team’s current state. I don’t know of many teams, past or present, that continue to play their starters/star player deep into 4ths when the game is well over. I think Trae is a very good player. Much better than I and a lot of others thought he would be. I think Pierce’s current strategy of letting him have the ultimate green light at all times may be instilling poor habits, though.

I don’t really disagree with you but you do have a lot of Mavs fans who slick hate on Trae for no reason. I’m of the belief that BOTH our teams drafted the right guy, Luka’s with a great organization, Trae is becoming a superstar in his own right.

I do think this organization is gonna be on the clock for Trae soon...this team was not built well, I love Coach Pierce but he hasn’t coached this team well (horrible substitutions, no defensive adjustments)...shyt we haven’t looked competitive in multiple games early this year. Trae is gonna be lookin at Schlenk and Co real suspect if this team continues to look and operate like this for the next year or two

I was just saying that it goes both ways. Not you in particular. But this board has plenty of Doncic doubters/haters. It’s weird that Trae fans are victims, meanwhile I’m getting @‘d or quoted by obsessed people anytime Luka has a bad quarter... It is what it is at this point. Luka went from being a guaranteed bust to being in MVP convos in his 2nd year and weirdo ATL/Trae stans stay negging/quoting. It’s amusing.

It’s hard for me to evaluate Pierce because your squad has so many raw, young pieces. Like, what is your timeline? I feel like you guys are 2 years away, at minimum, from being able to properly evaluate your core. Hunter and Reddish, you won’t be able to make a reasonable conclusion about them and how they turned out, until around 2021/2022. Huerter and Collins suffered setbacks in their development just through sheer unavailability to start this year. Looks like you’ll get a nice draft slot this year, so add another young guy to the fold this offseason.

By the time Trae’s rookie deal ends, you guys MAY start to have an idea of the personnel around him and what their realistic capabilities are. That’s a tenuous situation. All the while your coach having baffling rotations/minutes strategy.

And I have the same concerns with Luka. They’re not as severe as it sounds like yours are with Trae, but I do wonder what his mindset will be in a few years if he’s surrounded by role players, albeit quality ones, and an underwhelming KP. Guys want a secondary star. There aren’t really any Dirk/Hakeem guys left that are okay with carrying a team of supporting cast.

Your feelings are so hurt. Can't even try n discuss basketball anymore. That slow realization that I was a 100% right must be tough

Trae was the only reason the Hawks were in the game at the start. Down by 3 because he was the only one making shots in the 1st quarter

he took his first break with 2 minutes left In the first, & the Knicks went on a 16-3 run because nobody in the hawks could make a shot besides Trae. If you don’t watch the whole game don’t speak on shyt you don’t know about

so he’s supposed to sit when it’s a blowout so y’all can complain about load management & players not playing the whole game?

this site has the biggest group of retards I’ve ever met in my life, & I’m a special education teacher.

 

[Bledswole]

He good but his stats are starting to be “empty”

Please stop comparing him to Steph too,Steph doing the shyt he doing at a way higher level with his legacy on the line and winning MVP’s and ship’s,this lil nikka can’t even win 30 games

This thread is weird. 21 year old rising star and likely all star this year puts up impressive numbers on G-league level roster plagued with injuries to key players. What exactly is strange about a young up and comer on a woeful team in only his 2nd year in the league? There's literally nothing unusual about this.

And please don't bring on Doncic. The Mavs starting 5 is far superior to the G-league roster Young plays with. We're talking about a Dallas team that still beat the Bucks without Doncic.

I hope most of you on here are Doncic fanboys (who are starting to get very irritating btw) because surely the average NBA fan with no ulterior motive can see Trae Young is having a very impressive sophomore year.

There's absolutely no correlation between him sitting out with minutes remaining during a blowout, and load management. How in the fukk did you ever come to this conclusion? Trae is virtually the only main option in the league who regularly plays in garbage time during blowouts. Again, let me repeat: that has absolutely nothing to do with folks complaining about load management.

Padding stats in garbage time =/= load management.

It sounds like you're not a "special education teacher" but one of the students.
