All-NBA Trae!

[ATLHawks3]

Congrats to our guy for finally getting the recognition he deserves.

Shoulda been 2nd team.

Ja Morant missing half the season but getting second team over Trae is horrible. Glad Trae is getting recognition, but come on.

It's fkng criminal.  Any player can look good when they play half the games, and are pit against guys who play much more.

It's literally the justification for load managing.

[Sothron]

It is laughable he wasn't first team. Morant missed almost HALF THE SEASON and his team was like 20-5 without him. How the hell is he above Trae?

[yungsta]

Not surprising. Remember, the hawks had long stretches of being a straight dumpster fire and we struggled to achieve a winning record until the conclusion of the season.

That matters when it comes to all nba voting.

I'm not worried. Trae's team is setting up to be at least as successful as Ja and Luka's over the next several years, and I'm confident he'll get his due.

Congrats!!

For those wondering, he's the 17th Atlanta Hawk All-NBA teamer...

and he joins, 

Joe Johnson, Al Horford, Kevin Willis, Dan Roundfield, Pete Maravich and Dominique Wilkens as Atlanta Hawks as an ALL-NBA player.

That Luka is 1st team and Trae is only 3rd team after the statistical difference in their seasons says all there is to say about how wrong too many people are about Trae.

Trae had a better season than Luka and Ja.  More efficient than Luka and just better than Ja.  However, they will use team record and defense to keep Trae down.   Even though Luka is just as bad a defender and both Luka and Ja's team can post wins without them.

It's been a whole day and I'm not over it.  I'm just as incensed as yesterday.  Morant doesn't belong on any of those teams based on games played.

The only justification is team record, but the team had  a  better  record  with  out him!!!

But he's all-NBA 2nd team?!

Congratulations to our superstar Trae Young!  Take a bow, young man.  You've earned it.

(Fully agree that Trae was robbed.  IMO, deserved to be above Morant, Derozan, and Booker.)

Why do they have 1,2,3 teams anyway.  Why not just name 15 guys all nba?

You have to give divisions of credit.   You're not just passing, you're an "A" Student.   No.. You're an "A+" student.  I guess Trae is an "A-" player.
