Is this who he is? If Trae is as mediocre as he has been this season and last (you can argue he has just been bad this season) what is our move? Try and trade him while he still has some semblance of value? I’m sure we could get a top 5 pick.

    Dudes averaging 23 and 11. I’d cut my left nut off for a player like that on the Hawks growing up.

    Yall really out expecting way to much. The dude is amazing. His shooting will even out and his ppg will go up, assists probably go down a little, but at the end of the year you’ll have a PG averaging 27 and 10 and be pissed about it for some fucking reason.

    Like wtf

      Tbh I don’t even see his assists going down, but the problem is nobody knows if this is just a really bad cold slump and he’s the same guy he was from 2020-2022 or not. Cause if he is he’ll turn it around soon and do what you said. It’s normal for guys to have down years but they usually come out great the next year. Trae has been struggling for a season and 12 games that’s not really normal for a star. You can’t blame people for being concerned about his scoring the guy is shooting 35% from the field and 27% from 3.

      I’m the biggest Trae fan in this sub but the truth is if he was playing up to his standards, we wouldn’t be 6-6 we’d be 8-4 at the very least, possibly 10-2 with the way he was able to take over games. We’ve seen what he’s capable of and it’s hard to watch right now. But I think he’ll turn it around
