See this is what confuses me, their numbers are almost identical except for rebounding. I doubt most people would even know which player was which if I just listed their stats out and removed rebounding.
So why is one projected to be a generational superstar, and one is just simply an all-star? Because of the state of each team 20 games into the season?
The only thing I can guess is that it's because luka is bigger. If that's the only reason then okay I guess, I dont agree but I can understand why it's easier for people to have faith in 6'7 wings over small pgs.
It's the pettiness of Harden blended with the nonsensical prose of Kyrie. It's like it was lab grown to annoy me.
Dude was on the court, during a live play own the end the action was at. Repeatedly. He is not immune because he gave his shoes to some kids a few minutes before.
I have faith in the young wings, our biggest issue is without a doubt our big men. Without collins suspended we are 30th in the league in def rebounding, which is one of the main reasons are defensive numbers look so god awful. None of these dudes on the team can grab a rebound. On top of that, they just offer zero rim protection.
If we can find a big man that trae can atleast direct his man into, that'd do wonders.
The only people being petty in that situation were the Jazz announcers.
History has been much kinder to taller basketball players over shorter ones. Especially the ones who are wing sized but have guard skills. The degree of difficulty for everything that Trea does on the court is just always going to be higher. This is something I appreciate after watching JJ Barea play for a decade. The skill it takes for someone Trea's size to do what he has done is insane. The work you have to put in to do what has done so far is immense. I hope Trea eventually gets his opportunity to sweep the Lakers like Barea did when he ended both Bynum and Phil Jackson's careers in one swoop.
Atlanta rolled the Zion dice and more than likely fucked up. Not Sam Bowie bad, but not Olajuwon good.
Trae Young is great IMO. Doncic is still a level above him though. Trae is a star. Doncic a superstar type thing.
Yeah Lebron playing the victim is cringey ass fuck here. I get that the Jazz announcers are mostly salty but also, bro get the fuck off the court. He already got away with the carry of the season earlier in the game. Just chill man.
Jazz stink, Jazz announcers are dorks.
I subscribe to the rule that when you're slapping a 'contending' team around on their own court on the second of a B2B, you get to electric slide around the court to your hearts content.
Bron (Luffy) vs Melo (Usopp) tmrw
Only a true Big Baller could understand these references and parallels.
I can't believe you spoiled that these characters fight, now I'll never read the 5000 One Piece chapters.Bron (Luffy) vs Melo (Usopp) tmrw
You're kinda underrating how crazy it is for Trae to be scoring the way he is at his age. Dude is definitely in the superstar category, but the Luka stuff is making people forget that stuff like this isn't normal.
You are right. That's why I said Luka is only a step above him. I guess saying star vs superstar created a bigger discrepancy than I intended. Trae is phenomenal.

Durant even left his teammates for power and embraced snake powers.
ohno
Yeah, but you shouldn't be happy. That's kinda the point.
I don't see how Young wins any of these categories. Young's scoring is more impressive because he's doing it with less size, but he isn't a better scorer. The chart even says Doncic is a better outside and inside scorer. So why make Young better scorer? Seems like they just don't want to sweep on Young. And even in athleticism and rim protection? Let's see Young stuff Lebron twice.
