Trae was one of Kobe's last mentees; the OG would be proud of Trae✊🏿
Him, Book, and Tatum.
@@lamotte hopefully none of them will ever read an agreed statement at a press conference effectively admitting they r*ped a woman 👍🏾
@@lamotte That explains alot. What about Spida?
@@parrogakaparadise9477 that comment explains the Type of person u are 😂
@@parrogakaparadise9477 he actually only said he’s guilty of adultery. Nice try
What a time to be a NBA fan. The sheer amount of talent is incredible.
Exactly the NBA is in a great place alot of young guys who are gonna be studs, luka Zion ja morant Tatum Booker donovan Mitchell trae young, you can tell the guys that's been in the gym I just hate this post season had so many injuries real fans wanted to see that clippers Lakers matchup and then Lakers and Brooklyn or clippers
Along with the lack of will to play defense making the talent look that much better
It’s been awesome
@@absolut_dre it's not lack of defense you cant guard it you look at a guy wrong it's a foul bunch of flopping and the footwork and moves are insane they take 15 steps lol if jrue holiday is the best guard defender in the NBA currently and trae young made him just look silly what does that say these guys are so fast and quick nobodys stopping them anyway trae young is not even efficient scorer and just still putting up numbers
And u can't play defense now!! Its great
Trae young has shimmyed and embarrassed the entire eastern conference
@person blue trae young is a genius basketball player, people need to respect him
@person blue well said
@person blue Made that fool delete his comment 🤣
Id take trae over giannis any day
Coaches make me mad giannis would guard him late game situations fuk switching stay home but trae is the best scoring guard
Trae is the real deal. You’re not stopping him. You can only hope he has an off night.
He had an off night in game 7 and they still won, his teammates are really good too
5/23 baby
@@dindajgnmrh2177 brick Simmons assisted their victory
@@xdOreoMilk No more excuses for Ben, he gotta step up or step out lol
He still controlled the game in G7.
That shimmy was soooooo disrespectful 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this cockyness will be fuel in next games. same happen after game 2 nets destryed bucks and show disrespect. expecting a lot of mean-mugs
@@vlassischatzis8574 I like how you left out the fact that kyrie got injured leaving only KD lol
@@FreshPrincex4 Giannis injured last year vs Miami as well its part of the sports
Bad Karma incoming. It’s the first game and he does this. He’s gonna learn. It reminds me of when Chris Paul shimmied against Steph in the WCF 2018 then after he pulled a hamstring and went to lose the series. Watch Trae get injured
@@vlassischatzis8574 difference is
Bucks was getting wrecked even with giannis playing against the heat last season
The bucks was also getting wrecked this season too with just KD and Kyrie
They basically choked game 6 away against a nets squad led by KD only and almost lost game 7.
If you're gonna say the bucks beat the nets add context in it atleast
Y'all must not seen Trae in high school. He use to the pressure and the hate
I use to go to Oklahoma to watch him play
@@Lacewk no you didn’t
@@gawdlike4075 I live Wichita,Ks I have a cousin that lives in Jinks, Ok that played basketball but yea thanks stranger on the internet for trying to tell me what I did. Now go back to drinking mountain dew and eating doritos in your moms basement you troll

Trae young floater is Tony Parker like is an unstoppable move and Trae mastered it too.
That’s a PERFECT comparison. TP’s floater was definitely unstoppable
Agreed with the comparison....but now i just miss Ginobli.
I'd say that Trey can shoot the 3 better than Parker too. Plus John Collins and Clint Capella are athletic enough to catch every lob pass. Atlanta is legit 👌🏾🔥
@@jpatt85 ofc trey can shoot the 3 better than TP, that wasnt the topic of discussion. but u are correct w everything u said
Right on
Trae been doing this since high school 😂
Trea Led NCAA in scoring and assist the 1 year he played for Oklahoma 🚫🧢🤷🏿♂️
Omm since hs i said once he start bowing its over
Facts they late!!!
What do u expect from casuals.
What's so scary is that Hawks are had the most injuries to their key rotation players than anyone in the nba! Boogie ,Gallo, Nunn, Reddish, Hunter, Collins All have missed atleast 15 games A PIECE! Hawks are the future. They can possibly make a trade for a superstar this off-season as well if they choose not to bring back Collins. Watch all these New Hawks fans come out of nowhere now lol
What all the commentators are missing about Trae's shimmy is this: Most players shimmy AFTER they make a shot in celebration. Trae shimmyed BEFORE he shot - then nothing but net.
YEP
Imagine if he missed! 😆
@@tanyencinas5271 Don't have to cuz he swished it.
@@tanyencinas5271 THAT’S what made his shimmy so EPIC! He took that chance!
Jim Rome actually brought it up. He's one of the rare ones giving the Hawks their props instead of blaming their wins on the opposition's screwups.
he’s hard to guard mainly bc of how he doesn’t over dribble. if you really watch how he plays every dribble and move is calculated. he bases his moves on how the center is playing the P&R, if he’s playing low, he knows he has the middy, he’s playing high, he can keep the defender behind him and wait for the roll and lob. both defenders playing low, quick move and 3. he’s very calculated and precise, no wasted movements.
Yup. A combination of aggressiveness and reactionary offense. His spots on the floor are areas the defense considers inefficient shots that are hard to guard and depending on how you defend it he'll counter it with another one of his spots.
Stephen A's face when Max said Middleton was 0 for 9 from 3 was priceless lool
😂😂
Read this literally as this was happening 😂
@@MrIcemonster loool
@@MrIcemonster same😂😂
Don't leave out John Collins! When him and Trae was on the court together, it was a different energy.
I know Kawhi’s championship run was like 5 minutes ago but that aside, as a *whole* these have been the most epic playoffs in years. The future is now fr.
Bro remember when people people put Ben over trae young
Fr now they change there opinion 😂
@@tris1107 including myself
JC was huge too, he always come up strong specially in the end game with those rebounds, dunks and timely shots
Atlanta did right by getting Trae Young aka Shimmy Trae or Ice Trae the Hawks prince
Remember when people were saying the Hawks were crazy to not choose Luka? Idc what anyone says, Luka's playstyle is a lot more forced and he couldnt lead these Hawks to the 3rd round. Trae just flows with the offense so smoothly. Luka tries to be the entire offense.
It might be bad karma. Watch Trae Young get injured in this series.
@@delfiffera2766 u wish hater 😭😂😭😂😭😭😂
@@cascadeslimm2681 Karma came knocking at the door. Jrue locked turnover Trae up tonight 😈😈
@@cascadeslimm2681 LMAOOO what did I say??! I called it. He injured his ankle late in game 3 and it ended up costing the Hawks the game.
everytime Hawks setting screen for Trae..Bucks backing off like he's Ben Simmons. best way to slowdown him is to keep switching.
Not Ben Simmons 🤣
Touche 👍🏽
Give my Hawks their props matter of fact “Don’t “ because that’s what fuel their 🔥 fire. All three series they trail late in games and by large numbers but never panic just keep playing. No one still take us serious but you gonna learn today 🤣😂🤣
mmmhm. I 100% approve this message.
My Hawks too. I can't wait till they come home.
Stephen A. was unusually on point right here. This man is a bonafide superstar! He's got the game and the swagger. Name me 15 players who are better / affect winning more than Trae. I'll be waiting

Shout out to @jimrome for being the only sports host for showing legitimate respect to Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks. It's funny how now everyone wants to talk about them all of a sudden.
I said it in the first series “ the Hawks are just playing basketball “ no individuals no egos, just a bunch of guy’s going out and playing to win no matter who gets the credit.
Ice Gang, stand up! 🥶🏀🥶🏀🥶🏀🥶
Streetie?
I'm on tiipy toes!!! ATL
@@quickHitter5080 🙌🏾
I need us to also talk about Nate’s coaching!!!
2018: Maybe we took the wrong guy
2019: He's good
2020: Who's Luka?
2021: He definitely can't leave Atlanta
It's like Max said. We're seeing such a huge shift in the NBA. Almost like around the time back in the eighties when the top 4 teams were usually the lakers, the celtics, The Detroit Pistons and the Blazers. Usually around this time of year you see the lakers, the heat, Warriors and cavaliers. But like I was telling somebody the other day, I don't think anybody saw this as your final 4 teams. I'm a hawks fan. I totally went into this after the win against the Knicks say whatever happens from this point forward to me is bonus because they made it past the 1st round. This is a great time to be an NBA fan to see almost like history in the making or like a change of the guard. And it makes me wonder what will happen next year when these NBA players actually get a full year of rest and a lot more training of working with their teams, what kind of playoffs will we see next year
He plays basketball, what ever it takes to win, he will do it
Except play d
To me the most interesting part about all of this is that Trae is only 22 playing at this level. He's just getting started
Trae is one of the few real hoopers in the NBA. So much of the league is just winners of the genetic lottery. This guy has worked at the craft and developed true skills. The Bucks deserved 150% of that shimmy for the embarrassing defense they played. No lie, I'm a Bucks fan but it's getting harder with every playoff game this year and I'm heavily considering jumping ship very soon.
He ain't smilin in game 2. I think he gonna cry. Happy Friday Trae boyyy
Ice trae gave them mama’s cooking just how KB gave you mama’s cooking Stephen .A 😂😂
All I can think about is STEVEN A “WHY WAS YOU AT THEM COLLEGES BOI”
Middleton is a roller coaster 🎢
Just play Giannis or Portis at the 5
Give more minutes to Forbes
Stop playing Jeff Teague
Yeah Jeff Teague ain't gonna give you nothing
They tried that in the 4th and y’all got killed on the boards. Capela 19 rebs and Collins 16 rebs your not winning a playoff series going small with guys that can’t shoot 3s and get killed on the glass.
@@airmane.9487 so accurate. bucks tried to play small and pay it in the rbs. but the problem last night was the bad shooting of chriss
@@vlassischatzis8574 I know the bucks can do better than the sixers considering the sixers had them by 26 basically for 2 games and still let them catch up which is something the bucks wouldnt let happen. The hawks didn't do good every game either, trae wasnt hooking his shots. They just need to defend better.
I love these younger stars, and the fact that they are all on small market teams. Lets Goooooo
@Tu Blessed Not like NY, LA, or even PHI tho. That's why Silver was hoping for a PHI/LA Finals. Not ATL/PHX finals
I think of ATL as a medium market.
Trae young plays like a mobile quarterback
Thank you Kobe. Thank you Steph Curry for revolutionizing the NBA. This game still great.
Facts
Wow Trae is the truth at 22. NBA will be interesting going forward.
The fact that alot of young players averaging Around 30-40 and dropping 50 imagine them in their prime's.
I don't like you, Mice Trae. But, ball out young man.
He better get paid more than Ben Simmons.
I'm assuming he beat your team, but let me tell you something bout Ice...his first year, he went out and paid the medical bills at the hospitals in a county for everybody. He made me a personal fan for that act of kindness and it don't matter what team he's on, I'll root for him to do well.
The Bucks Just simply underestimated the Hawks .
They did! They felt like the rest of the sports media world that the Hawks would be an easy win. The Hawks and the rest of Atlanta are out to prove to themselves that they are in it to win it.
We got ourselves a new goat on our hands
Check the score
Two days ago SAS said Atlanta would get swept 😂
Another guard I know would go crazy once he gets his chance in the playoffs is Zach Lavine for sure
We all been waiting for this haha
Right
When u kno u kno
You right about that max .. holiday and Middleton has to show up ..not just one
Who else is here after the Bucks won the series and are going to the finals instead of the Hawks
Middleton isn’t better than Collins, change my mind.
No arguments. Collins does more tbh.
why are you comparing a guard to a forward?
@@ermannosorricchiodivalfort4905 I’m not, the hosts said Middleton was better than Collins.
you're actually right Collins is definitely better
@@ScottTrentonGiants well whoever said so it just doesn't make sense to compare the two, imo
These clowns change their opinion every day.
True…. True
Any way the wind blows.....
@@SCYTHE2525 yup
Khris Middleton is like a better Kuzma. He can be good, but you better not be relying on him.
Hit em with those factz
It is so great to see him torch everyone else now. That floater alley oop combo is the new pick and roll.
Tre in that pick and roll and that floater is automatic give Nate McMillan alot of credit
I know this is a debate show but i am really happy if max and stephen A Agree in some things.😀 nice content and analysis from both
Stephen A's actual basketball analysis is really something special to listen to
i remember when some weren’t sold on him bc of the summer league now look at him
The word you're looking for max is consistent
Trae is a true PG but also a scorer. He's Steve Nash and Tony Parker-esque. You can't stop guys like that who because its the nature of the position. Too much handles, skill, and basketball IQ. He can shoot, get to the paint and if you try him he'll just dish it to his teammates who'll score like the key clutch 3 Collins made in game 1 to get them back in the game with like 3 mins left when they were down 4. Nate Mac has taught Trae how to get his teammates involved and be more a of PG than a scorer but also got him to understand he can also score.
That was surprisingly good analysis by Stephan A
Can you believe it’s the Conference Finals and the two matchups are the Suns vs. Clippers and Hawks vs. Bucks??? Remember when all we used to see was the Spurs or Warriors against whatever team LeBron was in the East for like 8 years in a row? It’s nice to see teams draft well and develop their players…
I am the Worlds biggest Pacers fan, but I am almost a Hawks fan now, because of Trae Young..I hope they win the Championship! What a great team!!
What a great Coach!!
Trae Young is the MVP of the league hands down!!
GO HAWKS!!!
trae > luka 🕺🏾
Here's a thought Mike Buddenholzer, why not double teaming Trae. I'm not saying double him the whole night, but have you ever heard of controlling the pace of the game. Make the other players on ATL beat you instead of their best player. Buddenholzer has to be better at making adjustments
I can see the debate of Trae and Luca for the next 15 years
Really good breakdown S.A.
And they're losing by 32 at half. Lmao, that's more embarrassing to me than a little shimmy in a close game.
And still no Buddenhoser criticism!
Brook Lopez was a sick defender vs Brooklyn.... so what happened???
He is the next victim in the Hawks effect.
Two different playstyles. Also ATL got more weapons than the playoff Nets
Trae and lamelo had the same swag in the game. If lamelo will be given a decent teammate to compete in the playoffs. I see trae vs lamelo rivalry in the ECF for years to come.
Magic & Bird
Lebron & Steph
next up: Luka & Trae
best playmaker vs. best shooter
Stay humble Trae, being cocky wont win you a championship. Bucks in 6! On your head.
Atlanta looked good
ATL WE HERE
If Trae can solo beat the Bucks KD's legacy takes a huge hit.
I’m with broussard…. I need to see more of it… too many people nowadays to quick to hop on the wagon… the entire NBA is injured this year… I saw Jamal Murray and jimmy butler do the same thing last year and now crickets
Revisit and watch Embiids facial expression in all of Game 7 PHI vs ATL. There's no focus, fire, intensity at all. Compared to previous years. Almost a look of guilt. He knew what was up.
Trae Young is an all nba atleast 3rd team. If only John Collins can soon evolve especially defensively, if Collins can average 2 spg and 2 bpg that's instant all nba defensive team if he's ahead of other players, and it makes the Hawks a Nightmare for opponents. DeAndre Hunter is getting into a force as well, if they 3 keep getting great numbers, it's a matter of time until they are all Allstars, Trae, JC, and Hunter should be untouchable
Max has been winning every debate for a while now
When seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea. ' All ESPN critics
This is great. I love this.
A super team is not going to win. 3 of 4 teams are places players never wanted to go. This is great basketball right now. Even now we have all these tv people. All talking about guys going to one of 4 big market teams. I don't care who wins. As long as it's not LA. I'm so happy for suns and Hawks. Even Milwaukee I hope wins. This is one of best playoffs in the last 20 years. Just behind Toronto winning.
Jrue holiday made all defensive first team and he couldn’t contain trae at all
And you thought the Knicks would beat this team 🤦🏾♂️😭😭
To defend Trae going small on defense, then you have to defend his teammates that can score, he may have 20 assist and a low scoring, stay big then Trae is going to pick you apart,....I might have to say the Bucks might be fucked,...lmaoooooooo
I see a flagrant 1 coming....it's the only way they can shake him up some.
Crazy how KD had 48 and they lost to Milwaukee at home, Trae Young puts up 48 and they win on the road.
They both got to show up this holiday💍
Only man to kill the Bucks (the champs this POST SEASON) with that much single dominance and clutchness. Up next for GREAT SMALL GUARDS…
Issue with Giannis playing the 5 is he just runs out gas coz he is not used to playing heavy minutes because of Budenhouser’s dumbfuckery
Bucks need to go zone. Big guards can harass and will make it hard for Trae to shoot over; defensive presence in the middle will cut the out some of the floaters and in the back will cut down lobs
I want the hawks versus Phoenix so bad in the finals you got 2 good big men and 2 good point guards And really that's 2 teams no one expected to get there it would be a nice change no super teams
Me too.
My 2 favorite players ever Harden and Trae with the most disrespectful shimmies
Trae looking like Parker and Curry combination
this the first time I acc agree everything Stephen a said .
Hawks go as far as Trae takes him he needs to be on his game almost every night. But his teammates support him when he's having an off night. Game 7 against the sixers he was cold for most of the game but his teammates backup him up. It's gonna be tough to beat the bucks four times, but they at least got one so far and too homecourt.
I Love this kid
Middleton looking like playoff P
Middleton & Holiday are streaky. When they are both on with Giannis, who's normally 30/12, MIL has an unstoppable big 3. If Middleton is off and Holiday on or vice versa then Bucks have to stick with hot hand. Last night for example, Holiday should have taken last shot to tie, he was open but Middleton didn't swing ball to him, and Bud didn't call play for Holiday. If they are both off then Giannis has to shoot more. It's just that simple and not once have they played like that intentionally Expect another big game in GM2 from IceTrae - Isiah Thomas 2.0.
Trae young single-handedly embarrassed the Milwaukee Bucks last night. I know there was a lot of crying in your "ice" cold beer last night. 😥😢😭🍺
This is a miss match. Giannis & Bucks will respond with a payback SHIMMY. FACTZ 💯
