2021-2022 AROUND the NBA: GSW Champs [ARCHIVED]

Trae Young horrible again last game. I was watching Hawks last 3 games, and Trae has been beyond awful in as many as 11 out of those 12 quarters. A pure one-way player with absolutely zero defense, playing really soft in these more physical games. Had 10 TO last game, but it's more that he is unable to manipulate defenses as a PG that is the troubling part, and lack of defense. He is a fantastic one on one attacking force in iso situations. However, once he is trapped in difficult situations with good help defense that knows how to make complex movements and switches, he doesn't have the skills to manipulate the defenses to commit to wrong places and movements and doesn't anticipate those movements by the defense to exploit the holes that will appear. The team needs to carry him for too many stretches. He is able to however explode at any moment with his offensive game, and this series is far from over as Atlanta is a great team overall, but the worrying part is Trae's omnipresent inconsistency that has been there since he entered the league. You never know what you get.
