That’s what chuckers do.
Ended up with 8 TO’s at the half.
Funny, Trae gets all the media attention and praise for scoring 48 on 34 shots despite the Hawks having to win despite him the final 5 minutes but when they’re down 30 at the half tonight the announcing team didn’t focus on the 8 turnovers and 0-6 with the same tenacity. Go figure.
That’s one of many things I so dislike about the NBA today. The invention of stars and the overhyping of them.
Young had a good game on the whole in GM1, but was 4-13 from 3 and struggled the last half of Q4.
During the stretch where ATL got down 7 late, Young was 1-5 from the floor which included 3 shots from beyond 28 feet that he missed. And he was super fortunate to get bailed out on some highly questionable touch fouls.
If De’Aaron Fox got calls like that he’d average over 30 a game too.
Honestly, I think Trae Young could be a much more efficient player if he wasn’t trying to be Steph Curry and was more selective on his 3’s. He doesn’t shoot a good enough percentage to keep chucking so many 3’s from so deep.

Yeah De'Aaron is so great that if he got calls like other random guys in the NBA he would average 100 points. Also if his teammates were as good as other average NBA players he would average 50 assists a game. De'Aaron misses free throws on purpose to give other teams a chance lol.
I mean Trae is such a scrub, he's only doing well because the NBA clearly conspired since 2020 that they wanted a star in fan-favorite money-making mass market Atlanta. Heck, Robert Woodard would lead the Hawks to the ECF if he got calls like Trae. Papa G would lead the Pistons to the championship if he got calls like Trae.

Great to see fresh teams in the finals.
Trae Young scores near 50 in a win, and the next game the Bucks practically shut him out. Great defense.
Giannis is from another planet when stays within 15 feet.
The defense on display in the finals is awe inspiring to watch.
Booker was dominant. The Suns were at the bottom of the league with the Kings and are showing what a good front office can do.
After the head butt by Beverly, Booker is tentative and I cannot blame him.
George just takes over games.
These are very interesting games to watch.
