It’s fine Trae hasn’t played up to his level this year and there are tons of good East guards. I need Trae to play with a chip on his shoulder and lead us when the same thing happened in 2021.

I think it’s a measured and fair take from Kenny.
Obviously TNT being in Atlanta means they’re exposed to local media coverage of the Hawks which has painted an unflattering picture of chaos and dysfunction. Regardless of Trae’s numbers, when he’s spoken about as a chaos agent along with Nick Ressler that’s obviously going to weigh on people’s minds when making these decisions.
It’s not like he’s having some ridiculous statistical season where he’s undeniably an all-star despite all the negativity, so it’s difficult to look past that. Our record isn’t good enough either.

Trae is the most disrespected and under appreciated star in the NBA. All of the hate is completely undeserved. Absolutely ludicrous if Trae doesn’t make the team.

Hopefully Trae doesn’t care. Winning fixes everything. Winning is all that matters. I do think if he was the only star we had like the past 4 seasons, he’d be there but thankfully he’s not anymore. He’s really been sharing the ball a lot with DJM and I’m here for it

Trae is the team captain and an amazing player. He’s also playing beneath his level and other guys aren’t. That’s it.

We saw what happened last time Trae was left off the All star game

Trae becomes a superstar when people hate on him… let them hate

How many posts are there gonna be about this all star stuff? 😭😭. It is what it is man. Trae’s not liked and he’s having an off year.

Trae set a high standard the past few years that he hasn’t lived up to consistently this year. Hopefully coaches vote him in but it’s looking highly doubtful. The 12th among East guards in the player ranking got my blood boiling last night, I hope that’s a clerical error or something because the only other explanation is others players hate him.
Watching this, they don’t have Garland or DeRozan (not a guard) either so that makes me feel better, especially DeRozan because he was a starter last year too. Also three of the four having Brunson and Randle is wild, Knicks are having a decent season but c’mon.
Just gotta make another deep run, and Trae can say again that we don’t have any All-Stars.

Time to get over it. There’s been like 50 posts about this in two days. Trae has not had an All-Star year. Everyone acting like he got shafted just looks like a homer who is out of touch with the rest of the league.

Trae is a penis of a person. He needs to work on that and his play will be more appreciated. That’s how it works

Out of all those players, who are you taking off? Maybe Brunson but Knicks are ahead in the standings. Maybe Jrue, but probably not this year.

Gotta stop them stories of him being a diva from happening.
