‘They Got Superstars Over There!’ Trae Young After Hawks Lose Against Kawhi Leonard, Clippers

‘They Got Superstars Over There!’ Trae Young After Hawks Lose Against Kawhi Leonard, Clippers

Kind of the game was closed within three with about six or so minutes left to play and then it just seemed like they were firing on all cylinders yeah I mean a lot of is just players making plays uh I mean they got Superstars over there

For a reason and that’s I mean that’s why they are I mean Kawai goes against the dunk I mean that’s not a play that’s just him going and scoring I mean uh we’re I mean trying to hit the hit the ball um if big old got on James or

Certain match ups and they were just cutting and finishing around the rim and they just made a couple more plays than we did and uh I mean credit to them they see that type of I mean I mean type of Defense a lot with the hitting and guys

Doubling so they know how to play and they got smart players everywhere so uh they capitalized off it obviously with DeAndre still coming back from you know men’s restriction that sort of thing but uh was very impactful tonight uh what did you see out of out of his minutes uh I mean Dre

Was really good he was was I mean aggressive uh I know he didn’t score or uh was involved in the game as much as he was like to last game and um it was good to see him I mean get some shots to go down and be aggressive and uh I know

As we continue to play as minutes will go up and that’ll help us um with the guys out there cuz he’s one of if not our best defender on our team so uh not having him these past 18 or something games it was it was tough but now having

Him back he can help us and as we continue to play more he’ll um I mean his minutes will probably increase and he be on the floor a lot more for us Trey this was despite the loss tonight a pretty successful homeand I would say how do you carry those good

Things from this homeand over into this next series of road games and some pretty tough environments yeah I mean uh it’s more about all of us just understanding that we got to take it one game at at a time I know that sounds cliche and a lot of people say it but I

Mean we’re in the position where we have to uh I mean winning one game is going to bump us above 500 so we got to continue to take a one game at a time and um continue to stack these wins whether we’re at home or on the road and

Uh so now we got two on the row we got to go go take care of and start in Boston best team in the league this year and uh tough place to play they don’t lose lose their very much so we got to do something that a lot a lot of teams

Don’t don’t do this may not have been the night off offensively that Jaylen would have wanted but he didn’t seem to let it affect him defensively what did you see from him on that end of the floor uh yeah I mean he was playing hard

Um I mean Jaylen is not going to be perfect every night and I know he’s a competitor and he wants to and um especially just being his first year he gets to play a lot so he wants to be perfect every night and um I mean I’m

I’m sitting there I is hard cuz he’s he’s such a big big piece for our team and I know he wants to be perfect but uh in the moment it’s it’s hard to tell him like just to keep playing and keep going and um but it’s it’s just part of it

He’s not going to be perfect every night and coming from me I know I know that it’s not going to be perfect every night but it can change in in a heartbeat it can change in a play it could change in the next game so he’s got to continue to

Stay with it he’s been having a hell of a year and one game ain’t going to change nothing so yeah yeah yeah Bruno Bruno played good he’s going to be playing playing for us a little bit more for sure probably with CC out and so we got to we

We’re going to have to need some minutes from Bruno and his energy he he always brings it um so every time he’s on the court we’re going to have to need it even more from with CC being out so
