    Trae's opening game eerily reminded me of Lonzo Ball's last summer.   Lonzo was doing some of the same things offensively, like jacking up long 3s and taking shots under pressure, instead of letting the game come to him.  It took a few games, but then Lonzo had the MONSTER game in which he controlled everything.

    Yeah I think he'll look better offensively next game. His vision, passing ability, and defense were impressive though. He's very quick defensively especially laterally

    Yeah you def didn’t watch the game lmao  or maybe you were blinking too much...Trae had at least 3 layups he should’ve made from him freeing himself up and going straight to the basket. Even a few of those 3’s he freed himself up from the dribble. 

    Uh, yes I did. and like I said I believe those layups were off of transition and pick and rolls, so I don't understand your point. All i'm saying is that he doesn't have the shake that Curry does when creating in isolation

  3. Yes I watched the game. The only way he was able to break down his defender was through pick and roll. Other than that players were able to stay in front of him more often than not. There was the nice behind the back dribble he did for the 3 pointer but that was about it. By no means am I labeling him a bust already, i'm just calling what I see. I thought his handles were going to be up there with Curry and Kyrie. He's still got a nice set of handles but he doesnt have the same type of shake they do when it comes to beating their man off the dribble or creating in isolation

  4. C-. Only because he Doncic trade hurts, probably would have moved it up to at least a C+ or B- if the 2019 pick was unprotected. 

    A if we were actually slotted at 6 and picked Trae Young there. I actually like him and Huerter a lot. Don't know enough about Spellman though
