Another game with Trae in the lineup; another game where Atlanta's opponent scores 130+.
I got bashed relentlessly for saying nobody will ever win anything with him as their lead guard, and I still stand by that

He's pretty legitimately the worst defender to ever get big time minutes on the perimeter in the NBA

It's not even that he's just terrible, but that he's physically incapable of playing defense. It goes beyond just hiding him to the point that they have to set their whole defense around the idea of never letting him defend in a one on one situation

Other guys have to guard players and positions they never would if it wasn't for him, the whole defense has to scramble and switch everytime his man gets the ball. Its absurd

To be honest it’s hard to win in general if your best player is a guard under 6’5

that’s why steph is special

You act like Steph doing amazing shyt on defense; wel all remember Kerr trying to hide him on defense during several playoff series
Look up Steph defensive rating this year and get back to me… Steph always been solid on defense, clowns like you and the rest of the league allowed bspn to run with a narrative that Steph is a liability on defense

It's the same narrative that people try and use against Jokic.
