  • Most know by now that Trae Young is one of the best offensive players in the NBA. Despite a lackluster season from the Atlanta Hawks, Young has been able to keep them in the hunt for a playoff spot.
    What does Trae Young do that's so impressive on the offensive end of the floor? That's what I'm going to breaking down in this video. The offensive genius of Trae Young, NBA All Star and budding superstar.

    I don't think people realise the level he's been playing at this season man, in my personal opinion he's been the best and most consistent point guard this year right from the get go.
    He's legitimately one of the best offensive players in the league right now, and I don't think people realise this is one of the best offensive peaks of all time

      Almost that long for me. He is so good at reading the defense it’s hard to believe. It’s like they are standing still at times. And he does it with such a flare. I don’t know if he will win a championship but I know I’m gonna enjoy watching him try.

      Steph and Luka are superior players. Jokic. etc. They are also better defenders than Trae. How can you call Trae "generational"? When he's literally a worse version of other current players?

    Thanks for the great take on Trae Young’s play so far this season!
    Last game (against Toronto) he seemed to be locked in, like he’s gearing up for a big run leading into the playoffs. This is the time of year Trae Young is made for.. we ain’t seen nothing yet! 😝
    ** side note: We GOTTA start giving Chris Paul more respect in regards to play making ability. He’s not appreciated enough imo; the only other guy I thought you’d mention here.
