Why Trae Young is Disrespected as an All-Star

[@sauce773]

I love how the media says the all star doesn't matter but mention it when a player retires. Nobody ever talks about this.

[@hoodie_bron]

When has the media ever said that? You mean the fans. I’ve literally never heard any analyst or reporter ever say that. Also it makes sense to list all star appearances when someone retires as that’s still a accolade. Maybe I’m misunderstanding but you’re not making much sense lol

[@A_T88]

Hey Casey good video. As someone that lives in Atlanta and has followed all of this since day 1… the Lloyd Pierce and Trae drama was really on Lloyd. He wasn’t good with the media here and even though he took the job knowing that he was basically a developmental coach, when Trae wanted to start winning, he wasn’t in lock-step with that or the front office that agreed with Trae. So that’s why he was fired in year 3. However, the biggest rumor that came out of all the front office drama between then GM Travis Schlenk and ownership last season, was that Travis didn’t want to draft Trae AT ALL. But ownership felt that Trae needed to be the pick because he could be sold to the city over someone else. Ownership I think was right of course, but it’s impossible to know if Luka could’ve been marketed to similar success? Travis walking away due to the Murray trade was icing on the cake to the overruling prior. The Hawks are just dysfunctional.

[@kineahora8736]

Well, sounds like Travis is right, not ownership-because Luka is a top-tier player and DeJounte Murray is completely overrated and not really a good player…

[@A_T88]

@@trenolley5265 considering Tony Ressler made his son, Nick Ressler a very key player in making basketball decisions, I find the rumor to be pretty valid. I think Tony is very much on his own side in terms of making whatever money he can and not spending it. So if the team continues to be bad, he has no more reason to keep Trae & his max contract. He’s been about shedding salary and not paying the tax since the 1st time it became a possibility. He will publicly say that he’s about winning and blah, blah, blah but when you look at what’s happened with the team it’s largely lip service. I understand that they traded for Murray, however they could afford to do so knowing that they were trading John Collins no matter what. The move appeared to be a “win now” move but in reality was simply a lateral move talent wise. I try to judge base on word, but I watch actions and believe those more than what’s said.

[@jordanmarcken5770]

I think practically all the elite passers are underrated a lot more than they should be. Trae was certainly snubbed, but even in the west, being a diehard Nuggets fan, there is no reason that the 5th seed Kings don't have an all-star selection. Sabonis is averaging 20-13-8 on 61%fg, and KAT is averaging 22-8-3 on 52%fg. And before I hear "winning matters", Lakers (9th seed) have 2 all-stars, and Warriors (12th seed) have a star too. It took Jokic finally winning FMVP for people to go, "hmm, maybe this dude's passing is more impactful than we think", but that hasn't permeated the league nearly as deep as it should. This year has been the most prominent example of favoritism over skill for the all-star game

Atlanta is the most disrespected team in the league, and it's been that way for decades. The media 'hate' on Trae is ridiculous, and seems entirely focused on getting him out of Atlanta, at which point I'm 100% sure media will turn around and start loving him. Have these people watched Atlanta games? Trae can become a pretty damn good defender in the last minutes of games (check out all the charges he's able to take to win games, or look at how he bodied up Giannis in the paint a couple years ago in the Playoffs). And if LP or Nate were such great HCs why have they not gotten HC positions since getting fired?

a fair question to ask is: who should he replace? I used to be a trae fan, but the last 2-3 years have changed my opinion on him. Fans think he should have been allstar by looking at his box stats, while simultaneously entirely neglecting his advances stats or his game tape. For me to considering him an allstar/all nba player he needs to improve on a lot of thing: Reduce his turnovers, improve his shot selection, improve his efficiency, be less ball dominant and increase his offball movement without the basketball, at least try on defense. Another thing is that, while his assist numbers are high and he is an excellent passer, most off his assist are lobs to capela., which teams have been able to shut down in the post season. His efficiency , specifically in the postseason is down right horrendous. all this and i haven't even mentioned his horrendous defense

As an Atlanta fan, it seems like the players can’t accept that this short guy that’s so confident that it boarders on cockiness is the guy and the team should be centered around him as the elite player he is. there has been one brief window where the team got out of their feelings and just accepted that he’s the head of the snake, I’m just going to play hard and play my role and that was at the end of the 2020-2021 season going into the playoffs. The team finally got behind him and took on his fearless edge and it let to an Eastern Conference Finals appearance that slipped away the moment he slipped on the refs good. I think it has something to do with his size because Trae’s usage rating is on par with other players of his caliber, it’s just he’s a smaller guy with a high pitched voice. I the hawks are at their best when 11 has it going. The issue comes when his teammates aren’t willing to play their roles. The one time they did, the result speaks tor its self.

Could it have anything to do with him playing for the Hawks? Seems like an easy team to overlook.

Not even watching the video just came to say trae young isn’t an all star because he’s shooting 40% from the field while leading the league in turnovers and is the biggest defensive liability in the whole league. Also his team is just barely in the play in

[@johnhachey9239]

"I didn't watch the video so I'm going to spam this comment under every other comment even though I don't realize that Dame is doing all of these things worse than Trae this year and he's a starter"

[@jonniebox9656]

Apareciste this video man

[@drivenrc]

Trae is 8th in the league in steals this year. Casual Tubers and Viewers don’t know basketball.

[@-hunt-6225]

Luka is 11th but you won’t hear haters saying he’s defending better this year. lol

[@hualchr6697]

The Booker comparison is not really working. The thing is, Trae was so overhyped when he came in the league, he was the first Player Starting in an All-Star Game while playing for the 14th seed in the Eastern Conference. That year everybody, including the media, gave him the benefit of the doubt. This happens all the time, Fans and Media are biased towards exciting young talent entering the league and can't wait to vote them an All-Star, just like Banchero this year. Booker averaged 27/7/4 in his fourth year, during a time where scoring and talent in general where not as stacked as today. You know who made the All-Star Game that year? Ben Simmons, averaging 17/8/9 on mediocre efficiency. Booker was the 13th pick, his play-style was not the most exciting, and he was no longer "The next face of the NBA". That's why they did not pick a guy with that numbers, even though it is hilarious looking back.

[@Vayee]

Things i hate the most in such an event is that mfs put personal thing first over actual stat. Im a Heat fan ofc i think and respect more bout defense since recently we've been with Jimmy. But there's no denying of Trae's offensive skill.. The way they hate him for drawing fouls and looking for pts is basically what Embiid does but i don't really heard any Embiid hates that drops him into the abys... even Gobert who got hated by the players for just sitting below the rim and make it harder for guards to drive still nominee some shit.

[@asmodeo111]

Trae Young has to be a Laker next year. Goodbye to Lebron and pairing Davis with Trae would be a Thing to watch

[@hoodie_bron]

The only thing that holds me back for trae is his efficency this season and last season. On paper he is a allstar but I can name plenty of guys I’d have as an allstar over trae. Also they weren’t a successful team last year so it makes sense he didn’t make it as well as his efficency troubles. The efficency is a big reason people think he’s overrated as well as being perceived as a bad leader which has a good argument.

[@gediminaskucinskas6952]

For me Sabonis snub looks even worse. 1st in league in double doubles, 2nd in trible doubles, 1st in rebounds, 6th in assists, 7th on mvp ladder, and in the top of win shares. This years all star truly showed how unfair that selection is and that there is some blatant favoritism going about who makes and who doesnt.

[@_Paul_N]

Trae Young is cold 🥶. People using the no defense excuse as if anyone is playing defense these days. Teams are damn near averaging 130 points a game in this era 😄

[@The.Drunk-Koala]

This aged like fine milk

[@bigbangbasketball]

The NBA about to give Trae the replacement spot like “here damn” 😂

[@BenWeiss-f9p]

Better not, Scottie and Derrick white are both more deserving.

[@grahamhang178]

He was an injury reserve. He made it.

[@VCashForever]

I want to know who is cutting Trae's hair.. I just want to know why his shit always looks like he did it himself LMAO

[@Russimme]

News: Trae Young (with Barnes) just made the Eastern All Star reserves substituting Randle & Embiid……….from Shams Charania Yo.

[@enthronedking]

Trae Young will have his day. 27 points and 11 assists a game 2-3 years before most players hit their prime. Like the guy or not that's nuts.

[@Max-me9ol]

i thought the all star game is all about the fans, so why isnt he in it when he was the second in fan voting? this isnt an all nba team, this is "just" the all star team. let the fans decide.

[@Conquerwrlds]

Since when trae young had a top 20 player to play with ill wait.....

[@Mikejones63848]

He just made it

[@KingDavisMVP]

This is the start of Trae Young’s Villain Arc 🏀

[@justtimes9257]

The biggest problem is that the All-Star game should just be based on the best 30 players in the NBA regardless of position and conference

[@sarbrevni]

maybe instead of fan voting, the stats should be enough. if you are top 5 in scoring, you should be an all-star

[@LoneSamurai_X]

CP3 held Booker ACCOUNTABLE for playing D. That's why he's reverted to his old self this year (shot-chucking & stat hunting). No one in Trae's carrer has done this to him - the Coaches that have tried, all got fired 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ethanespo96]

It really is media gawking the wrong teams, while also trae being on one of the most unmarketable teams in the league

[@lasttwhisper]

they being hating on trey. Trey should demand a trade to the knicks

[@sammyttheg412]

Why does it feel like youre putting maxey above spida. Mitchell has lead the cavs to a top 3 record in the east despite a slew of injuries to their other best players

[@will2358]

Trae young is a all-star now !!
