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 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 and take more 30 footers regularly.
What do y’all think?
He’ll never be revolutionary. Good? Yes. Revolutionary? No.
