The Huert! With a better rookie shooting season than Klay’s

The future of our backcourt is extremely bright!  Congrats to both of our guards...

Got to give Schlenk some big time props! He has really outdone himself with his draft picks!

hes either getting lucky or really doing some hardcore scouting.

anyways as everyone has stated our future backcourt is off to a more than great start!

Looks like I gotta hate Dan Patrick a lil' less.  He's squarely on the Trae Young 'wagon.

Trae was on his show this morning.  Not much new, here's some highlights ...

Dan Patrick: What are you doing these days?

Trae: Heading to Spain to watch big soccer game.

DP: Were you a soccer player?

T: No I was never in soccer shape.

DP: Did you go to any playoff games?

T: Went to game 3 POR/OKC and game 3 HOU/GSW.

DP: What did you take away?  Do you watch as a fan?

T: I watch as more than a fan.  I know the sets/know what's coming.  I noted that the atmosphere was different, fans were much more engaged.  I wanted to experience it before we're in it.

DP: Toughest defender you faced.

T: Klay was tough.  Kawhi guarded me most of the game.  Was definitely a battle, very physical.

Asked if he has a ROTY acceptance speech written yet.

After he was off, Patrick went on and on about how great his passing was.  His producer chimed in saying how he started slow and folks jumped off the bandwagon unfairly.  They're big Trae fans.

Never mentioned the L-name.  Not once.

I mean...the kid just gets it.  Love how "heady" this kid is.  How many rookies would go to a playoff game to see what it's like and be ready for it later on?

Who, if any one on the Hawks, got a perfect 200 points as rookie of the year before Trae?  Great that 2 of the top 10 rookies are Hawks!!

Well, in fairness, Childress and JSmoove did the same back in the day.  IIRC they were sitting courtside at a playoff game with Woodson at the time.

At his exit interview, Trae mentioned that he'd attend playoff games while in OKC.  I'm glad he did it but it's kind of a common thing now.  That said, not all rookies do this so he gets kudos from me.

Guess it became harder and harder for ESPN to ignore so many incredible Trae to Collins 100% scores and with unlimited flair and style points to boot. After all, those hacks don't want to always seem like idiots right?
