Same repetitive arguments that he used to use for Lonzo. "He has no one to play with" everyone else is a bum yadda yadda yadda. Trae is better than Lonzo but that is because Lonzo stinks.. He is having a good run right now but the second he falls off Watch how "No Great Shakes" starts dusting off these bullshit arguments.

And while we are at it does anything think that he will be selected over Kyrie Kemba and Malcolm Brogdon if the voting were taken today? Maybe Brogdon but there is no way he gets selected over the other 2.

And i'm sure if he doesn't fall off you'll provide your usual objective analysis

Refresh my memory. When exactly have you called out "No Great Shakes" for all of his lying (Lonzo played great while scoring 0 points) bullshit during the past 2 years? Its well known if I, Caller Bob, or 312 don't call him on his shit he doesn't get called.

We fight the good fight brother.

You seem to have trouble focusing on one thing at a time
I don’t know what Lonzo game you’re refrrring to nor do I care
But I’ll be sure to make note of his constant lying from now on

You’re a moron and only a slightly better troll than whistler

A tad anticlimactic at this point.

I'm going to bounce from the spot for awhile but I will be back at some point to argue with you about this hoops stuff again. Playoffs have been great this season. See ya up the road.

I'm out.

One for the ages from "All Star" Trea Young tonight:

3 minutes left in game vs the Bucs and Trae 19 points on 20 shots! He's a MINUS 31 in the game which is crazy because game was pretty close all the way to the end. If Atlanta had a league-average player at PG, one that didn't chuck bad shot after bad shot and played an ounce of defense they win

Nah. They're bad. They'll start to make some noise next year. They're all still puppies wetting on newspapers.

They are bad because their point guard takes a ton of shots and misses a ton of shots and he plays zero defense to boot.

Yep. He started padding his stats when the game was out of reach. Milwaukee Starters barely played half the game.
In the meantime he was at 12 points on 16 shots. Should have been done for the night at this point but Pierce left him in so he could get his avg and improve on his FG%


He had by far the worst +- of any of the starters yet all we are going to hear is about how the rest of the team isn't shit. Same bullshit that he used to run game after the game with Lonzo.

Truth of the matter is that they have no chance of ever making any noise as a team as long as he is their best player. Can't guard and his shooting % will never be particularly great.

How can you not love this guy? Looking forward to seeing him put on a show at his first all star game next weekend.

Legit question. Does that say more about the league or about Trae Young? Just a reminder. I don't question Young's offensive prowess. I question whether his numbers are something of an over production due to his team and also their defensive woes. Let's face it. When they play, it's their offense vs the opposition's offense.

I think it's a combo. I don't put any stock in Trae having more 45/10 games than MJ because it's easier to score and more numbers are being put up now. But, I look at in more as a comparison to his peers who are also playing under the same rules, but aren't having nearly the offensive success that Trae is. Trae isn't the first person to be in a role where he is expected to carry pretty much the entire offense, but no one else who came before him in the recent past has done it even a fraction as good as Trae has.


ATL defense has been improving since Collins came back. I expect it to get even better with Dedmon and Capela. Dedmon had 5 blocks last night. Finally having some rim protection will do wonders for everyone else's defensive stats.

_________________

Solid 1q at Magic
I think Dedmon will help a bit

Markelle Fultz is outplaying him up until this point. Trae Young is so bad defensively.

Going to the half with the lead, nice

A robust 3-11 from 3 point land for Trade Young tonight. I think his shooting was even worse around the 3rd quarter but must have racked up some garbage time stats.

Orlando outscore their average by 22 points. Started watching at half and made it a quarter and a half, which is longer than I've stayed for 2 months. It's a tough watch when you have zero stops.

-19 for ol Trae. Team looked much better with Teague running the show

For a dude that claims not to care about the NBA you sure do seem to pop up in NBA centric sections quite a bit. I guess that goes lockstep with your ALLEGED disinterest in the Cubs.

Like you claim to call out the liars when you see them, I am just doing the same. Last night, you posted on your on accord about Trae Young's stats. Clearly you do not ignore him. Not sure why you said otherwise.

That's all. I don't care about the NBA. Just calling out a liar as I see it. Have a good day.

_________________

About what dumbass? I misread his post and typed in Trae Young's name by accident. I started a thread about the kid and probably post more about him than anyone other than No Great Shakes. It would be lying to say that I ignore him. I don't and it is obvious. You obviously don't ignore the NBA either. Silly gotcha games in a section that you repeatedly claim not to care about is rather cheap and tawdry even for your sorry ass. There isn't a level low enough for a sack of shit like you.
