He's a demon. An icy, feisty demon. They're better without him, imho. Somebody give this man a 'like'.

Worst, most beatable 1-seed since.... uh, a certain 1-seed near and dear to our hearts.

Ja is not better than Trae. Full stop. Derozen has been in free fall since when? Perhaps the result will depend on exactly when votes are due. No way anyone can vote derozen over Trae unless they mailed it in, literally and figuratively, weeks ago.

You got my point .....

This... Posted Thursday at 01:08 PM Most voters thought Trae would bust in the NBA. He hurt their feelings.. lol Posted Thursday at 01:12 PM (edited) Gallo is a matchup nightmare for a lot of teams... his Skillset complement Trae's Skillset a lot... I wish he was a few years younger.. lol I was hoping the Bulls would beat Boston too, so the Heat would rest play Now its Dre's turn.. lol After win over Nets.. Posted April 2 Didnt even matter.. Trae on another level right now.. Helluva win... Posted April 2 So Dre can rebound when he wants too I guess? lol Posted April 2 Take your time JC... Why the hell not.. lol Posted April 2 (edited) If Trae doesnt make ALL NBA team this year, we should protest for real.. I cant stand Channing Frye btw.. smdh Yeah it allowed Dre to hit the boards not having to chase guys around the perimeter...10 boards has to be close to a record for him... lol Nevermind, I'm getting serious 'he doth protest too much' vibes.

Mainly asking what you think will happen, not what you think should happen. So obviously this will have some monetary implications on the Hawks via Trae's contract. But IDGAF about that. No team that wins does it on the cheap. Pay the man what he's earned and owed. I tend to think he will make 3rd team although he's played like a 1st or 2nd teamer. Enough jacklegs will leave him off due to w/l record despite not imposing that standard on previous selections *cough* Beal *cough* Here's one guy's team, just to give you some names to consider from the guard perspective: https://www.theringer.com/nba/2022/4/8/23015564/all-nba-teams-awards-defense-rookie 1st team: Nikola Jokic, Nuggets F: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks F: Jayson Tatum, Celtics G: Devin Booker, Suns G: Luka Doncic, Mavericks 2nd team: Joel Embiid, 76ers F: Kevin Durant, Nets F: DeMar DeRozan, Bulls G: Ja Morant, Grizzlies G: Stephen Curry, Warriors 3rd team: Karl-Anthony Towns, Timberwolves F: LeBron James, Lakers F: Pascal Siakam, Raptors G: Chris Paul, Suns G: Trae Young, Hawks I unequivocally do not think Morant deserves to be all-NBA. Missed too many games and his team obviously is carrying him, not the other way around. Curry should be 3rd team. Trae is better than Booker but somebody from that team's gotta make 1st or 2nd team. Your thoughts?

Agreed. I conceptually agree with what the OP is trying to do. He just picked the wrong guy to do it with.

Haha, I'm even worse. I knew about this thread the whole time and purposely waited on the sidelines so I can point, laugh, and brow-beat my fellow man. Does that make me a bad person? Probably, yes. Am I sad about that? Nope. Will I be pullin' receipts....

Yikes, man. Why?

The sky is falling! The SKY is falling! The sky is FALLING! No, Chicken Little, that's just the Cavs and Bulls finishin' the season real strong(sic).

Man, it's good to see you. We thought you'd forgotten your password when we didn't hear from you after those last few wins.

pssst .... spud? Over here. I'm in hiding after last night. I was talkin' some ca$h sh*t to the BIL and ... well, you know how it turned out. I might have to use my actual burner account for a while. Just until things blow over. What, ya'll didn't know about the actual burner account(s)? Uh .. forget I said anything...

Sign me up. Let some other team fawn over the empty boxes aka FRP's.

Stfu jimi, everybody saw you push the guy.

Lol now they give us the late a** whistle. These refs need to regroup.

They're just waiting for him to miss before they blow the whistle!!! Meanwhile Vincent is playing foul-fense all game!!?

He got pushed out! What are these refs seein!!??

Dafuq was the call?! The hand is a part of the ball!!

me 'n lethal finna be the Super Petty-o Brovas And come on, Hawks. kg needs this to hang over my BIL's head.

Well then you're gonna have to explain how/why UTA fades and falters every year despite having a better overall team than the Hawks right now. I agree Gobert is clearly an upgrade but I'm doubtful he can walk in by himself and elevate the Hawks to a contender. And are you crowing about being 'right' about the Collins contract? That's unfair. The whole team underachieved except Trae. You're gonna put that all on Collins?

Ayyeee, I said don't @ me, bro. Folks keep actin' like them Selltic teams were great. Nah the league was trash back then, sun. You show me a team that wins 10 of 11 titles in a row and I'll show you a trash league.

Can I steal a line from the haters? "Ahhh, that's just 'cause Trae's got the ball in his hands all tha time."

I'd only cite the 'accomplishments' of these teams, yes Russell included, if we can eliminate 90% of the talent from the NBA. Since that's essentially the quality they faced. Don't @ me, broooooooosssssssss .....

Hey, I've made it more than clear that I ain't reading more than 1 or 3 sentences per post. If one-a y'all ask me some long-winded question, I instantly morph into Mariah...
