That draft was pretty stacked _(Jaren Jackson Jr., Mikal Bridges, Jalen Brunson, SGA, Michael Porter Jr., DeAndre Ayton, Anfernee Simons, and a bunch of solid players like Bruce Brown, Wendell Carter, Chimeze Metu, Jarrod Vanderbilt, Donte DiVincenzo and more)_ and the Hawks used the 3rd pick to get one of the 5 best players _(depending on how you feel about Brunson, Bridges, and SGA)_ and another 1st. Good on the Mavs for getting the best player and another member of the top 5 _(Brunson),_ but honestly, the Hawks had the 2nd best draft after Dallas.

[@basketboleronggwapo9865]

yeah but there is one that generational player only luka. other is great.

[@jl8138]

I love Draymond low-key calling Cuban out for being an owner who meddles in his GMs' business and Cuban awkwardly shrugging lol

[@lanced4451]

I’m in Atlanta and love Ice Trae (second best player in franchise history with a chance to be first, hall of famer). Give Trae a healthy AD in the post and the balance of power in the East shifts (2nd seed for sure with a chance at the 1). Having said that, these things happen to Atlanta. Remember, some years back, Atlanta took Marvin Williams out of NC over CP3 at a time when Atlanta was desperate for a point guard.

[@JDRusse11]

I live in Atlanta and knew as soon as they made the trade it was one of the worst decisions the franchise has ever made and just another reason while I’ll never be a Hawks fan 🏀 😂

[@sillyrabbit6203]

Trae Young surpassing Bob Petit is really hard. Dominque Wilkins is also pretty far above him right now.

The HAWKS getting an extra 1st Round Pick from the MAVS the following year to just move down two spots to the 5th Pick and drafting Trae Young wasn't a Bad Trade. Unfortunately, the HAWKS Missed badly by using that MAVS's 1st Rounder on Cam Reddish.

[@amplesstratleholm7609]

True, in theory it wouldn't be as bad as it looks now, provided that Trae was able to give you 80-90% of what Luka was projected to be (I thought Trae would be at least 80% of what Steph was), and if the Hawks were able to hit on the draft pick. The Hawks missed on both, because not only did the gap between Trae and Luka ended up being bigger (Trae is unwilling to play off-ball, while an engaged Luka is borderline decent on defense), but they also missed on that extra pick.

[@bedandbreakfast4033]

Hawks didn't have good choice in 2019 draft. They didn't want Herro because they already had Trae. 2019 draft class was too top heavy. Hawks were just unlucky on lottery

Pretty sure the Celtics could have traded Jaylen Brown who had high trade value at the time because of getting to the ECF's in his second year and a future first round pick for Luka. I wanted that to happen at the time. Building around Tatum and Luka for years with them taking pressure off of each other and that's a pretty scary pair for the rest of the league to deal with.
