    Why isn’t Trae more popular? He’s one of those player where I don’t really get it. I don’t watch Atlanta myself but I do love his shenanigans.

    So cool that they gave him a standing ovation

    I hope we see Trae on a team good enough to make a deep playoff run again because the performances & stunting he was doing that playoffs was must watch.

    That shot of him waiting to inbound the ball and looking back at the crowd smiling is cold

    Trae is one of my all time favorite players. I honestly still put him in Luka’s tier. I have always said it but he was my favorite during that draft with Mo Bamba and Luka. I was so happy that we get one of the 2. The Magic ruined Mo Bamba and I still see him as a future potential superstar but Trae doesnt get his deserved credit as a current superstar.

    I do get it honestly during his foul bait era but outside of that, why are peers voting him so low. Its honestly crazy to me. There arent that many PGs I take over Trae even despite his defensive flaws. He is so clearly one of the best scorers, playmakers, closers, pace and table setters in the league, I also think he is a great floor general (not sure behind the scenes).

    He takes the pressure and delivers. Atlanta has never actually really built surrounding Trae and thats disappointing. Maybe nobody wants to sign next to Trae and they could only get trades but Trae is one of the top 8 players I would rebuild a team around.

    Saying this as a Mavs fan, Trae is the most underrated player currently in the nba. I think fans overrate defence wildly. Even the best defensive players can’t completely shut down top tier offensive player. A lot of offensive players are generally bad at defence because being the offensive engine takes a lot of stamina. Statistically in basketball offence is way more worthwhile than defence because the essence of the game. You don’t score points from defending. Trae is a okay defender if you match him up against another pg or smaller player. Trae is an offensive maestro he can do everything one of the best shooters and play makers in the game. There’s not many his calibre in the league.
