I don't see a reason he won't, unless the Hawks simply don't convert their opportunities or he has a perpetual November experience from 3 (highly unlikely on both ends). Having posted a 40+Asst% as a 20-year old starter made him the youngest player in NBA history to accomplish that feat. If our boys can hit from range and JC continues to be a machine, his AST numbers will increase and we will get to see him do his trademark hop 10+ times a game 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dejay Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 I'll say this much; if he puts up the numbers we're talking about and the Hawks get within hailing range of the playoffs, those three letters will have to be brought up... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member sturt Posted July 12, 2019 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Don't get me started, unless you really wanna to get me started. I'll say this much for now and leave it alone.... anyone wanna devise a better objective/quantitative standard for defining what Schlenk meant when he said you need an elite cornerstone player--i.e., one that doesn't just narrow the pool of players down to the 20-ish pool that have finished top 5 in MVP voting a minimum of twice in the last 20 years and also includes within that, a lead dog player from practically every championship team in those 20 years, but gets that 20-ish down to some smaller number--then I'll be more than happy to embrace that someone's standard. Indeed, have your fun... ... but It's all we have for now, because I'm the only one who appears to have taken some time to figure some standard out. Otherwise, people would be left to just subjectively throw around the terms "elite" and "cornerstone" to their heart's content as people do, with nothing to delineate a mere all-star from that tier/pool.

Thomas Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 High pace games facilitated by the best passing full court passing point guard in today's game. Efficiency might not always look so much better but we are going to win a lot more with Trae running this show. Turnovers are always gonna be higher in the run game even back to Nash's days. Oops, did I draw a crazy comparison there, not really. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lurker Posted July 12, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) I think he averages 21/10/3.5 on 43.8% FG/36% 3PT/85% FT. 3.5-3.8 TO. I firmly believe he'll lead the league in assists some years though and that likely does get votes for something esteemed if he pairs it with a slight boost in defense.

EazyRoc Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 24 pts/11 ast/3.5 reb/3 TO 45%FG/39%3/86%FT If we are in the playoff picture, I expect him to earn an All Star spot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AHawks89 Posted July 13, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 I think Trae SHOULD make All-Star team this up coming season but wont. Why? Media. I think Trae should had won ROY. The fact that media was so harsh on him before he played a game, they do not want to be wrong. I think same thing happens for All-Stars. Trae makes every player so much better. He's a dude that everyone wants on their team. Stars have already realizezd that he's the guy. He's a legit PG that can kill you with his awesome passes and can score at his own will. There is no other PG like Trae in this league. (I'm drinking so forgive me) 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High5 Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 I’m pretty high on Trae, but basically all of you have me beat there. I think 22/9 is a good bet and an impressive sophomore season. Maybe 22.5/9.5. And .570-.580 TS%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he increases his PT to 35 min a game he could pretty easily hit 10 a game with just a little progression. Heck, he could have had 10 last year if some of his teammates helped him out on wide open jumpers. Better shooting team. Better Trae. More assists imo.
