Yep, no player on this team should be above accountability. The shyt this dude been pulling on the court since last season is crazy! Only thing left to complete the gauntlet is for JC to "Rudy Gobert" him on the sidelines one day. His pops is at every game, I got to believe his dad has told him to stop with those dumbass shots during crunchtime or to stop holding the ball all possession. This dude was supposed to learn to play off-ball but he doesn't even attempt to move without the ball, lol.
Not saying I want him traded but he shouldn't be above accountability. Two coaches have been fired already and we still seeing the SAME shyt.
Anyway, I've been saying they'll have to choose between Trae and Murray.
If I'm the Hawks this summer, I'm calling Boston ASAP about a Trae for Jaylen Brown swap. Hopefully Boston go down in flames during the playoffs and Jaylen really wants out. I'm of the mindset we'll be fine with Murray as the fulltime PG cause at the very least, he's aware of his shortcomings and will attempt to play through/with others if he doesn't have it going. He'll also be a capable defender at PG since he just isn't strong enough to guard high-level SG's in the NBA.
His play seems to have stagnated. Ayton, Shai, JJJ, & Robert Williams were in his draft, & we’ve seen their improvement year by year.
The antics are more of an issue with me. After that stunt he pulled by not showing up to the arena was probably It for me. You don’t have to clout to be doing that yet…or even at all! Never heard about MJ, Kobe, Bron, Dirk or Steph not coming to a game because of a disagreement.
I don’t care how good you are..you can’t call yourself a leader and franchise player doing the fukk boy shyt he does. If we don’t trade him I hope he trains with Steph in the offseason to work on off ball movement & his attitude changes
Yea it’s been a steady pattern of bullshyt (him & JC gettin into it in a film session, social media BS when Nate got fired, taking a separate private jet during the playoffs last year, you mentioned the whole Nate debacle + gettin into it with local media, etc) from Trae that led me to how we got here. I think even the fact that Schlenk allegedly wanted to trade him (and Schlenk of course traded for him over Luka) shows just how untenable the situation is becoming. I’m on board to keep Trae if there are some dramatic changes around him but he’s the common denominator in all this shyt. If he doesn’t grow up you gotta move on
When did he & JC get into it? I didn’t hear about that one
