No doubt Trey is fun to watch when he's not chucking the ball from half court with the form of a high school girl, but does he limit the team ?
Watching the team with Bogdanovich, Smith and Williams sharing the PG duties it's clear the team is better defensively without him and they make fewer mistakes.
Till very recently Trey showed no apparent interest in refining his shooting mechanics, only good mechanics can make a shooter effecient over the long run.
I will say just before he sprained his ankle I actually saw the ball roll off his fingers with his shooting arm extended a few times. It matches the word coming from inside the team that an effort is being made to get trey to both work on his mechanics and cut down on turnovers.
I'm not ready to call Trey a longterm liability, but he HAS TO refine his shooting mechanics and not revert to old habits if he's going to max out his potential. Doncic is doing just that, he is constantly working on his game, and it shows.
Right now I think the team is at least as good without Trey as with him, it's up to TY to become what he can be. He will always be limited defensively, he has to make up for it by being better on offense on a possession by possession basis.
Thoughts ?
It's TRAE, not TREY you imbecile.


Let me ask you a question? Are the Hawks better without Collins and Capela as well? After all, they are 7-2 this year without Collins and 6-2 without Capela. After all, the Hawks are 5-2 without Trae in the lineup and that was enough for you to post this.

Were the hawks better without Trae in the Knicks game last week? The game where they were manhandling NY and were up 8 when Trae got hurt in the 3rd quarter. Team gave up the lead and got blown out in OT after that.

Also who the F is Smith? There's no one named Smith on the Hawks.

And what's this nonsense about his shooting mechanics? Who are you to tell Trae Young how to shoot? Just some nobody on a message board who lifted this topic from the Real GM message board. Not exactly impressive credentials.


Since McMillan took over the Hawks have won 68% of the games they've played with Trae in the lineup. But your dumbass is ready to declare they are just as good without him based on a two game sample size.

At the end of the day, the Hawks are playing great because of the coaching change + some players like Bogi getting healthy. Their best player is Trae. He's about to lead them to possibly a top 4 seed as the #1 option in his 3rd year.

Don't pretend like you actually watch Hawks games. You don't even know how to spell his name. And you think we have a player named Smith.

Clown.
 
Also, Bogi can't play PG on the regular. Once Milwaukee started turning up the pressure late in the 2nd that became evident. Coach noticed and started Goodwin in the second to run the point.
 
Word on the street is Kris Dunn will make his Hawks debut tonight. Hunter should be back soon and TrAE will be back in a week or so. league leader in 3pt% Tony Snell should be back soon as well. I assume Reddish as well. The lineup when this team gets healthy is one of the deepest in the whole league.

C: Capela
F: Collins
F: Hunter
G: Bogi
G: TrAE

Gallo
Huerter
Lou Will
Okongwu
Snell
Reddish
Goodwin
Nathan Knight


With Gallo, Huerter and Lou Will we are loaded with scoring off the bench.

Team, including TrAE, has improved immensely defensively since Nate took over.

First round series ATL vs NYK will be the best first round series in the east. Gonna be epic.
 
Who GAF how his name is spelled other than a tiny dic moron such as yourself ?


Making a blatant mistake like that for a star player who is highly promoted by the league and all basketball outlets just shows that you don't follow him or the league closely. It taints any other points you are trying to make.

If someone arguing about Lebron was calling him Lavon or Labran it would make that person look like they had no idea what they were talking about. Like you.
 
Also, Bogi can't play PG on the regular. Once Milwaukee started turning up the pressure late in the 2nd that became evident. Coach noticed and started Goodwin in the second to run the point.

To be fair, Bogi is better at the point than some random dude named Trey

Some of you I can't help so I won't waste my time...

Bumping threads prematurely is always funny.
All we had happen last year. In the end I was correct


And you were wrong in a lot of things you said. Calling someone out for doing the same exact thing that you do is laughable. No one here wants your help because we see right through you.
 
So you went 1 for 1000 and are calling it a good season for ya. Congrats Man U surely earned it.
 
When I am wrong I do...
That is the funny part.

I admitted that I didn't watch much Pac 12 basketball this year so I was unfamiliar with the conference.

I don't get where you are coming from.

You don’t admit when you’re wrong. You just avoid the conversation when you are wrong, plain and simple.

😂
Premature

The idiots were bumping threads before the season was over.

Your thinking...is the problem here.

If I say Illinois and Michigan aren't Final 4 teams. Doesn't matter what happened in February.
The proof happened at the end of the season.

So the people who were bumping threads all season...
There is a reason why I didn't post. Those games are meaningless 😂🤣
 
Kind of like the big12 having 5 top 15 teams in January was pretty meaningless yet you were spouting off about how they’d have 5/8 elite eight teams bc they have superior athletes to every other conference 😂.

I mean congrats Baylor was the 1/8 and went on and won it all. But ur bs is no different than the bs ur callin out.

Still upset the ACC sucked this year...

We will see if they rebound this year.
 
No, bc no one was on here spouting off about how great the conference was.

How bout this my team had a better tourney showing as the last team out than yours did as an effin three seed.

You can keep the conference brags, bc hey Baylor won it and they are in the big12 and in Texas so that’s like a win win for all longhorn fans I’m sure lol.
