Is Trae battling an injury?

Out with an illness.

Trae deserved an all-star nod over hali and DeRozan.

His efficiency hasn't been as good but he is shooting over 38% from 3 last 25 games.

At the end of the day, he has 27 and 10 and is playing the best defense of his career.

2 yrs ago, record was the excuse. Now DeRozan and hali have worse records.

IMO this is the coaches sticking up for Nate.
Wack AF

The numbers for Trae are always going to be there, but based on this season and his season I don’t feel like he got snubbed. Empty calories on a mediocre team that’s been infighting all season

6 and 8 from JC and Bogi…

I don't get the Collins for Vanderbilt/Beasley talk.

If the Hawks get Beasley, what happens with AJ? He just goes back to the bench?

Collins isn't a great 3-point shooter but Vanderbilt is a non 3-point shooter.

It doesn't make sense at all.

Idk man sometime DeAndre Hunter just feels useless out there

He doesn't inspire confidence. Even when he's on it feels flukey.

Meanwhile I'm at the bar telling my casual-watching homie about JJ and he immediately proceeds to look like a gamechanger, only to get glued back to the bench

Barely Grazed the rim on a wide open shot

So has literally everyone else tonight

Development of AJ and JJ is the only way we sniff a title in the next decade

What a stinker

I like him but he gives me Marvin William vibes at times. We need him to be a consistent 3rd option.

Marvin Williams vibes spot on

Sir Foster leak any of our trades or non-trades?

I can't even remember the specifics, but was Sir Foster actually that dude's insider? Or did we just troll to say it was Sir Foster because the predictions were wrong?

I think it was actually Sir Foster.

I may go down rabbit hole and try to find the post. It was Horford last year here if I remember
