Nobody thought playing like Steph Curry was a good idea until he did it. Nobody thought a high scoring guard could lead a team to titles until MJ did it.

Trae is the best 30+ ft shooter ever. JxmmyHighroller made great quality video on this in the off-season:

Some people say that Traes struggles this year have to do with his shot selection or that he’s just not a good shooter and a lot of nonsense. “He’s not Dame, he’s not Steph” exactly he’s also not Chris Paul or Steve Nash. He’s Trae Young.

It’s not an accident that he’s the best 30+ft shooter ever and this is the ONLY area where he’s not struggling this year albeit on a small sample size. He always looks in rhythm and has more space to take them. That range is so important to unlocking his game and allowing him to play with defenders.

It may be time to for Trae to revolutionize the game…

What do y’all think?

    I remember this video. But part of the focus was a 4 pt line specifically. If Trae is taking an even riskier shot from deep for the same 3 pts, well, I don’t know. I don’t know of anybody who would give him the keys to shoot a consistent 30ft+ 3pt shot.

    I will say if our Trae was the pioneer, that would be pretty cool. I just personally don’t think it’s a viable idea (for anybody).

    But I guess people said the above for a lot of things and ended up being proven wrong. So we’ll see.

    Brotha sometimes im ok with him shooting from deep, but telling him to shoot 30 footers when he can’t even make any shot even 2 pointers is crazy. U tellin him to run a marathon before a 5k😭😭

    Catch and shoot & DHO sets where he’s exclusively at logo range might actually be more efficient than letting him do anything off the dribble. Lmao

    LOL. He can be the best 30’ and out shooter and it can still be an inefficient shot. Have you seen his and Dames shooting % there? No man. You can’t go back and change a whole offense to rely on a shot like that. He shoots it enough to where opposing teams have to respect it. That’s as far as it needs to go. You don’t try and revolutionize the game with it while it only counts for three points. His three point shooting needs to be better, but this isn’t the solution to it.
