I love his commitment to getting better during the offseason(s). "Motor" is not something we should take for granted, especially for a player already earning the max. He prepares for the next season like a player that wants to take his game and his team to the next level. We need to appreciate that because that's not the norm. He also needs to keep the beard for '24-'25. 

Agree and this is the main reason why I can forgive Trae for his shortcomings. No matter what criticism you want to throw his way you can never say he doesn’t care, he isn’t trying, he doesn’t love the game, he isn’t a hard worker, he is satisfied or complacent. Those things don’t align with the continued examples of Trae putting in hours of work on his craft.

Nothing really new here, but this guy has a decent subscriber base so I posted.  There’s a glitch in those “floater range” stats that show consistency throughout his career, tape clearly shows that shot has fallen from arguably league-best to pretty good in that span.

Trae talking about winning here and bringing a Championship to the A......meanwhile the newly promoted  president of Business Enterprise & CCO, says "

Frrom #1 to not even top 5 the last 3 years.  What's up with that?

[AHF]

What number is that?  Doesn't look like PPG on floaters but not immediately obvious to me what that number reflects.

yeah i was wondering too although he has moved away from the floater for some reason.  he was just lights out with it a few years ago.  maybe the league started stopping it?

The warriors Chet and the KANG!!!  

 

To me, Trae is a top 5 NBA player, if he was 6’8” he would be top 2.

Just a hunch but think he may have been coming down from the floater on some ankles of the bigs more than usual towards the end and it was causing pain and games possibly so he went with alternative moves.

Totally a hunch.

Current topic on Gil's Arena

 

 

The title was originally "Gil's Arena Debates Trae Young being 6-8".  They started the show talking about this.

The 1s were the best anyways.  The 2s put my feet in a straight jacket

I don't know anything about shoes.  What does it mean that it's the last?  He's leaving Adidas?  or they are getting rid of him?

He’ll be with Nike and the Olympics soon

those are ugly as fcck.     The Ice Trae 1s are still the best by far and I have two pair of them.  One never leaving the box.
