IDC I still appreciate this man and I do believe we can win with him. He's been playing some brilliant offensive basketball for the past few games and I just wanted to highlight that. Yes I know this team still has other problems, but man I just wanted to post something positive for once. I still believe in my young goat.

  1. man you don’t even have to look at the stats

    Last night when he was on the bench the offense looked like clowns running around, and then when he came in they looked competent and functional

    In particular there was a stretch at the end of the 3rd where Trae led the team on a run to get the deficit down to 6 points, he sits to start the 4th and everything falls apart and everyone looks like dogshit, then he comes back after a few minutes and you could instantly see the team lock in, like a switch was flipped… but at that point it was too late

  2. We can tell “you don’t care” just like the rest of the fanbase and the reason theHawks will always just be bad

    You post this stating “we can win with him”

    Yall literally lost all 3 of these games and giving up an average of 134points in the5 games hes been back yall are giving up 130 ppg with 4 losses and the one game yall won happened to be the game he played only 7 mins.

    But yes keep supporting this idea that hes not the problem since he’s been there yall have 3 winning seasons one of those yall finished 5th with yall highest win total being 43 in his time as a hawk but yes keep pushing this idea yall can win with this guy!

  3. His numbers are fine but our record with him is very alarming. Ik we struggled before he came back but why have we not gotten any better with our franchise player back? The numbers don’t matter if he doesn’t improve the team performance.

  4. We’re losing. I can’t do another play in game man I love Trae, this isn’t working

  5. I still think it’s wild how instant gratification based our fan base is when he’s been back less than two weeks and barely played this season.

    My takeaway is the pieces we got this year where we FINALLY thought we had a supporting cast around Trae hasn’t worked out.

    Flabbergasted that Trae has essentially played a total of two weeks so far this season and this sub reddit is just done with him.

    Trae is last on the list of problems this team has.

  6. For a large contingent it’s never Trae’s fault.

    Shooting from the logo with 18 seconds left on the shot clock? That’s just Trae playing his game.

    Standing still on the wing or the corner when someone else has the ball? He’s just letting other guys play and not getting in the way.

    Getting overrun and hunted on D? Management needs to surround Trae with better defensive talent.

    There has only ever been one player who was sub 6’1 that was the best player on a championship team, and that was Isiah Thomas on the Bad Boy Pistons. The truth is Trae is not a generational talent. He’s not in the same stratosphere as Steph. He’s an ok playmaker but he cancels out his playmaking with ill-timed bombs from the logo and being hunted on D.

  7. Trae is playing great but he also hasn’t played in a while … feels like this team needs a sports psychologist if we are being real… I have to think they are a lil burnt out and the losing streak is not helping with the confidence… if they can flip one of the games we might see a resurgence of confidence?

  8. You can’t bring this up because trae hater move the goal post.

    If trae was playing bad it would be hawks lost because of trae perforance

    but since Trae paying good it’s why aren’t we winning………….. which is ignoring the drop in rest of the team performance this past month before Trae came back.

  9. People complain about his defense but he is the pg, the least impactful defensive position and they talk about him like Jokic or Luka literally play the same level of defense as Trae.
