Ice Trae: One Of One

[benhillboy]

Bruh.  This is way too huge to post in “Trae The Viper, The Executioner…” lol.  
 

First IN BASKETBALL HISTORY to lead the NCAA and NBA in total points and assists.  I’d love to hear what Nate Archibald thinks of his game.

Y’all know I’m not a fan of heliocentric, high usage individual play but this is spellbinding for someone his age and size.  Standing Ovation kid.  Highly unlikely anyone else is going to do this in human history.

This dude trying to fight the smile off his face when Laura mentioned it lol.

I can't speak for Archibald..

But there's this

Trae Young Says Oscar Robertson Called Him, Told Him He Loved His Game

[JayBirdHawk]

Congrats Trae! That's our SupaStah!

[benhillboy]

He’s got a combination of brashness, FT shooting, and vision that we’ve never seen.  That’s how he achieved this.  Seamlessly meshed aspects of Steph with Nash.

I never thought I would type the following sentence. 

Dominique Wilkins is no longer the greatest Atlanta Hawks player. Trae Young is the best Atlanta Hawks player of all time. 

Trae doing this in both college and in the NBA at his small size is simply amazing. There's no argument about who is the best guard in the entire NBA right now. It is Trae Young.

We are witnessing history every game we get to see Trae Young play basketball.

It's way too early to make this claim

So happy for my guy right now!!!

Never seen this done by anyone in my lifetime. Extremely impressive individual feat.

[benhillboy]

Shout out to Kevin and Clint, I’m sure the most assisted by Trae seeing how they both played 73 games (Trae 75).  Delon led with 76 but of course rarely played with Trae and is a total non scorer.  
 

John and Clint arguably the best screen and roll tandem of Bigs on one team, Cleveland’s Allen/ Mobley and Phoenix’s Ayton/ McGee up there.  Trae didn’t give his teammates credit in the short interview after the game but I would think/ hope he would in the post game press conference.

Congratulations Trae !

[Lurker]

That's one heck of an accomplishment.

[Diesel]

It's even that much greater when you realize that JC was out for almost half the season. 

That means that Trae has been throwing up assists to everybody. 

Gravity is highest in league history probably.

You made me go look this up. JC has missed 28 games 34%  (5 FROM COVID)....So 23 injury related games.

Good Find. I was a little off..  but 28 games without the guy who needs 97% of his points handed to him is big loss in the assists Department.

Record setting Atlanta Hawk!  Two records set in the same season after he had already set the same records while in school.  What other Hawk has ever set such records as this?  

Personal opinion.  Everyone is entitled to their own.  Trae is one of the top Atlanta Hawks to ever play here!

CONGRATULATIONS TRAE YOUNG !!

 

[Final_quest]

Proud of our guy.  It's hard to name other players who put more pressure on a defense.  

[thecampster]

He also set the record last night for 3 pointers made in 1 season by a Hawk.

Trae is obviously the most significant Hawk since Nique and the among the top 3 most significant players in franchise history (along with Pettit).

Congrats on making more history just 4 years into your career, Trae!
