Atlanta Hawks’ Trae Young After Loss To Magic



Atlanta Hawks’ Trae Young After Loss To Magic

Um when you know coming off of last game just what was your guys’s mindset coming into tonight and trying to have a much better start I mean that was I mean that’s the plan we wanted to come out have a better start than we did um we

Didn’t get off to a good start but we still fought found a way to get back into the game get the lead but um they just made a few more shots and we kind of I miss some free throws and um I think that was a big thing tonight I

Mean they made way more threes than we did too so uh so yeah now they just give them credit they made some more Shots tonight when you guys are having a night like you do at the free throw line how do you try and readjust or not overcorrect something like that I me

It’s it’s see you got to you got to shoot it and make it and I mean it’s it’s nothing I think you you you can make more mistakes when you overthink it and uh so you just got to I mean do what you put the work in and um um and just

Shoot it with confidence and uh I didn’t do that when it came to free throws I missed missed some free throws and DJ Miss some free throws it’s not I mean it’s not regular for us so we got to we got to be better with that um but for

Sure me Trey we dominated in the paint but Second Chance points was 25 to6 in their favor do you think some of those Second Chance opportunities were because of defensive rotations or just size differentials no I mean they had a I mean the the what you say the thing was

Second points Second Chance points like yeah I mean they didn’t have too many of them like they I mean they had some timely ones sometimes like um it’s not necessarily about how many they have it’s just when it happens and uh they had a couple late in the game some

Putbacks with the bigs and I mean Clint was contesting and then his man would end up getting the tip back and uh sometimes it’s just how how it is I mean those guys are 61 and they just jump above above guys and tip it at the basket so it’s not necessarily how many

They scored like you said they didn’t have very many um neither did we but it’s the time um the time that they happen you kind of her this for sure and speaking of Clint what did you see when he attempted to take that charge at the end of the game oh I

Mean I mean I I just watched it again it was it was a charge I mean earlier in the game Jaylen tried to jump around the guy to avoid the charge and they c a charge on him and then this time the guy puts a knee in his chest and then they

Called The Block so uh I mean it was I think it was I mean it wasn’t very good officiating the whole night um I mean they had a couple calls I mean I think even Jaylen sus told me they they gave him a foul and what he wouldn’t even

Knowwhere near the play so uh so it’s just it was it was confusing a lot of the plays I mean and we’re on the road so we’re not going to get as many calls as the home home team and that’s expected I think every team expects that

Going on the road so um but whenever certain calls happen like that it’s not about the call sometimes the timing of it um that was a big play a big time in the moment so um it’s just one play but it’s the time and ever for sure Trey uh

I know it’s a tough loss I just want to focus on something positive for a moment when you launched your first shoe with Adidas I know was about Limitless potential and now you’re on your third shoe and I love your shoes what is it like now knowing that you lived up to it

You exceeded that and now you’re just breaking ple of records and just you as a person as well oh uh yeah I mean it’s it’s tough talking about it after a loss but I mean obviously it’s it’s cool having my own shoe and I I always try to represent I

Mean every time I I step in step in them and on the court um it’s really cool I mean just going to different Arenas and seeing people with my shoes and holding them around so I just I mean I envisioned having this as a kid and um

But I got a lot to prove and a lot to continue to show and uh back up the reason why I got a shoot so appreciate it yeah gotta Trey despite that big third quarter from Orlando you guys obviously made it a game in the fourth

And you led the team with 11 points just what did you see offensively and how does that kind of say that your team is able to keep it a game by going that hard in the fourth yeah I mean that’s the that’s been the nature of our team

This year we’ve had a lot of losses that I mean could have easily been wins for us and uh it’s tough going through it cuz it’s not easy and um cuz it don’t it comes down to a couple play here and there that could have flipped the whole

Game for us and uh it’s frustrating whenever the tables don’t turn your way and uh we definitely put the work in we put a lot of work in and what we do we’re in the gym a lot so it’s tough enough the results don’t don’t come the

Way you you expect them to but I mean we keep fighting like you said we’re always in the games we always give ourselves a chance besides probably two games this year um so we just we just got to keep it going and keep keep a positive mindset and understand that it’s a it’s

A long it’s a long race and I mean a’t nothing the street can’t help and uh we’ll be all right
