Let’s think about why Trae Young’s field goal percentage has been poor. Perhaps it’s because this team maintains a crazy fast tempo. The Hawks’ pace this season is 103.18. He shows calmer decision-making and efficient and consistent field goal performance in set offense. Young’s down-tempo performance in the third quarter against the Spurs tonight showed him to be a more All-NBA player. In fact, his pace when he was selected to the All-NBA Third Team for the 21-22 season was 98.67. He is more impressive in motion offense than his strength in transition. I think the reason he struggles defensively is because of the fast tempo.
