    Thing with Young is that people saw Steph 2.0 and was riding this wave while loosing his identity in the process. He was gaining fans and gaining confidence but the this wave ended and haters appeared. Now he can’t escape this shoot-deep-3-even-when-15-seconds on the clock mentality.

      what Trae need is an off ball movement. He doesn't need to run around like Steph but I feel like most of his shots are mostly off the dribble.

    I think Tatum’s biggest dilemma is his inability to finish around the rim in playoffs. I know he is a great finisher in regular season based on %, but the paintzone packing defense in playoffs literally make him shoot horrible at the rim. He needs to develop strength to finish with a contact

    Celtics' fan. So I've managed to watch majority of the games this season and it's really much of the same with Tatum. Big shooting nights to be gone the next night, a lot of jacking up shots he doesn't need to take, late game turnovers, not giving up the ball when he is having a bad night(which can be blamed on the coaching staff for not recognizing it. It isn't taking away his confidence. If he wants to win, he has to be more self aware), layups, and a few more, but I'm not trying to pick apart everything. It's all things he can change. But I wonder if he's willing to co-exist like Jaylen has said he's able to take a step back behind Jayson, but I think it needs to go both ways. It's an opinion, so you all will not agree.

      They play more basketball than ever before they get to college, and no one who’s responsible for their care (coaches, parents etc) puts any effort into maximizing their health. They all capitalize on their youth to play as much ball as possible and put as many miles on their growing bodies as possible. That creates poor habits and a weak foundation. Tendons, ligaments and joints are worn out before they ever make it to the league, and they end up paying for it in the pros.
      No one cares about making this sort of lifestyle sustainable for the kids trying to make it. Rest, repair and healthy movement patterns aren’t on anyone’s radar until it’s too late.

    I think the issue that that there isn't a player that truly breaks through world wide popularity. I think the NBA is going to be in trouble when LeBron retires because there's no one to pass the torch to. There's no LeBron, Jordan, Kobe etc that even non-basketball fans know and recognize. that's the problem with the young stars.

    Trae has picked up his Defense a bit this season, he’s still getting scored on but he’ll fight to get around screens now. He’s also putting in extra work in the passing lanes & starting to rack up some steals, 1.4 in his last 5

  • @josapathlapiz4722

    Trae Young thinks he's Steph Curry wayyyy too much. Bro doesn't nearly have Curry's game. Curry sprints from end to end non-stop allowing him to get open shots and opens up his teammates. A superstar is willing to constantly move off the ball just to give his teammates the opportunity to get open. Trae is a 15 dribble jack-up a deep three shot guy. Again this comes back to what Austin Rivers was talking about. Highlight culture is killing the game. We have new guys coming in thinking they're in House of Highlights all the time and just jacking up deep contested threes or bad contested shots. Refusal to improve on the basics of the game and improve themselves every season is not helpful at all. Yes, the new generation has immense talent but their fundamentals in basketball are very bad. Guys like Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard. Not flashy, but incredibly sound in fundamentals allowed them to dominate the game. Hope the new generation of players work more on their game

    IMO, you're right about Morant's maturity being his biggest issue, but how can you say we taken a step back as a team when we are still the #2 seed? Jaren Jackson didn't play for the first ~20 games of the season, and we've been missing Steven Adams and Brandon Clarke due to injury for what feels like over a month now. Even in the face of all this we are still same seed as last year and only 1 game behind last years record. AND last year's Grizzlies record was the second best year in Franchise history, beaten only be the 2012-13 season conference Finals appearance; that's a hard act to follow but we damn near are to a T.

      To give a bit more context, I've watched about 80% of the Hawks games this year and the defensive improvement from Trae has been a sight to see. He's out there getting deflections, sticking to his man, rotating and communicating. Now I'm not gonna gas him up like he's suddenly a good defender, but he's on his way if he keeps putting in the work.
