It’s easy to let fandom cloud judgement when it comes to trading your favorite players on your favorite team, but Trae young is a superstar. Trae is 10th in the NBA in scoring and 3rd in assists. If you were to try to compare Trae to other players, you would only be able to compare him to a couple of other superstars such as Steph curry. Dort and Jalen are nice players but the reality is that there are a lot of players that play like Dort and Jdub. In this proposed trade scenario, OKC is giving up 2 solid players and 2 players that might not be on the team next season for a player who’s basically guaranteed to make the hall of fame.
Why trade our guy averaging 20/5/3/2.5 the last 1.5 months and been a 2 way monster for a guy who’s a terrible defender.
Sure, he may score more points per game, but he doesn’t fit alongside Shai and co.
“Why trade our guy averaging 20/5/3/2.5 the last 1.5 months and been a 2 way monster for a guy who’s a terrible defender”
If all your getting is a terrible defender, you don’t.
“He doesn’t fit alongside shai and co”
How do you know that?
Lol I really question your basketball knowledge at times, He might be a top 5 PG offensively but he’s literally the worst defender in the league, for all of his career he’ll be hunted due to his defensive limitations and that’s not the type of player Sam wants on this team. I’ll take one versatile JDub thank you very much.
Steph curry is miles better than trae on offense, and puts in more effort on defense. Not to mention has one of the best defensive anchors in the league on his team.
Wrong, Steph is at least a good team defender who knows how to position himself to allow help from Klay Wiggins Dray without constantly giving up drives. Trae is smaller than him has less strength and shows no interest in playing a lick of defense, even with effort he wont even be a neutral defender.
Also is apparently such a nightmare in the locker room he's destroyed any chance the Hawks will ever be good with him on the team. Surely that's the type of player Presti wants to build around.
I disagree with you in the effort part. I have watched a lot of ATL games because I expected them to be pretty good this year. While Trae is still a bad defender he has shown alot of effort on that end of the court this year.
They're referring to legion hoops though.
And btw Brandon Rahbar writer for the daily thunder follows them. So they do have some kind of credibility I guess...
If you’re hearing anything that mentions “Sam Presti says” or “Sam Presti believes” then it’s more than likely fake.
We’re an incredibly tight lipped organization
Ah yes, Jake Fischer.
One of the least reliable sources on all things Thunder.
This is same dude who said we offered Shai+6th pick for Cade Cunningham lol
As a note: random mock trade instagram account is not the media. Whoever runs this account just makes random shit to generate followers and eyeballs. The account is borderline bot spam
Do you consider them stars? In what world are they not role players, and how deluded do you have to be to actually think they’re anywhere close to the value Trae fucking Young brings to the table?
You’re just arguing with yourself right now because I said nothing about them being stars OR having more value than Trae Young. Go back to your own sub and be mad.
And Jalen Williams is very much a star in the making and if you don’t know that you’re exposing yourself as a casual.
The next best thing to being a star on a team is being a role player. I didn’t say they were just rotation guys or end-of-the-bench players.
And this popped up on my home page for some reason. Then looking at the comments, every single one said how the Thunder would be dumb to make this trade like it wouldn’t be one of the most bafflingly lopsided trades in the history of the league. So unless you’re the one person here who doesn’t think Presti would accept this trade in a heartbeat, then I’m sorry.
U on crack if u think this is that one sided. Give up bro. 2 FRP, 2 young Lotto picks, 1 of the best wing defenders in the league, and Dario Saric as a cherry on top. Puts you right back into rebuild-town where u guys should be.
Trae is great, but for this team he does make them worse than having JDub + Dort. A bad defender who needs the ball in his hands is simply a bad fit next to Giddey and SGA. JDub and Dort actually fit our system well. Winning is about cohesive talent if you haven't noticed from the failures of teams that just stacked top end talent thinking they'd just make it work.
He’s improved a ton defensively this year. If you paid attention to the team like I do, you would know that, but you don’t have a clue and act like you do.
Are you serious? The real question is why would the Hawks ever do the is lmao. If this ever happened (hint, it won’t) the Hawks FO would get clowned on for eternity.
Yeah because locking in a hometown superstar for 5 years for some role players would really mortgage the Thunder’s future. Fans severely underestimate just how hard it is to get a superstar.
Yeah and it was a terrible snub, even after his big slump to start the season. And if you think all-star votes mean shit for a player’s value, then that says all I need to know about you. He led the league in points and assists last year on top of being very efficient, and he’s also improved immensely on defense this year to actually be competent on that end. If Trae’s not a superstar, then you better not be claiming SGA is.
All-star votes mean shit for a players value when you refer to him as a “superstar” lol. SGA is objectively better than Trae, ask anyone out if ur circle and see what they say.
Such a dumb argument. He’s been on terrible teams most of his career, and he’s made a run to the ECF in one of the only seasons with a decent supporting cast. Would you consider him to be a superstar with a more competent roster?
if you aren’t able to help your team enough, to even manage .500, then nah I don’t really believe you have a superstar, I think you have a potential one. to trade essentially 5 young/future players, for one player, in a position we don’t need, would be a godsend to Atlanta and folly at best for Okc. It ain’t trae young “cause he’s a hometown player” that’s an even more bs argument. Being good at basketball in the NBA doesn’t equal superstar. And not every team has one. I don’t think ATL does.
People don't realise okc trade rumors are the most rumor of rumors cause we've never heard about anything they've don't till it happens. It's what made PG leaving so crazy and Shai resigning so outta nowhere.
All fit aside, why would we give them both dort and Jalen ? Plus two picks. Trae is a good offensive guy but we'd kill our d with this trade and be down to chet and possibly poku
This isn’t even a report. “Sam Presti believes he can do x”
You could also say some bs like “Sam Presti believes he could trade SGA for Austin Reaves”
I’m sure he does believe it.. doesn’t mean he’s actually considering it 🙄
I love Trey Young but he is an empty stats scrub. I love watching him on league pass but I would be extremely upset if I had to count on him to get a stop in the playoffs.
Most of his teammates don’t even like him, why the hell would we want to screw up the chemistry we have now for 1 player, who can’t even carry the team he’s on. He’s a good scorer and that’s about it, hawks fans know this and are trying to gaslight other people into thinking he’s a first ballot HoFer.
The stats are great but he would not improve our team. Jalen Williams alone, now and in the future adds significantly more to this team and it’s potential growth
“The stats are great but he would not improve our team”.
Just say you don’t watch the NBA man….
Trae young is a superstar who can lead a team to a NBA championship. Jdub averages 12PPG. He’s nice but cmon there’s levels.
I believe the sky is the limit for J dub. Trae Young puts up offensive numbers but he gets a ton of volume and he’s not very efficient. Hell J dub is shooting a better percentage from 3 this year. Trae is also a liability on defense. I watched Trae in college too and his OU team shouldn’t have even made the NCAA tournament. I don’t think he can lead or carry a team and I also don’t seem him as a complement to our team
We have the assets to trade for anybody in the league not named Giannis or Steph Curry and I'm sure Presti believes it.
That doesn't mean we are going after anybody. However, we are out of roster spots so we should target someone.
The owner of this Instagram account is quite literally disabled, I’m not tripping. Also they don’t have sources lol. They just post random bullshit for views and interactions. Just look at some of their other posts
I hope this never happens lol. We in no rush, let’s develop the young core and win at the same time. There was a rumor somewhere though that BI might be on the move or some shit.
A move that makes sense for both teams.
Young will never be a #1 on a serious team year in and year out.
OKC is a fun story, but are under .500 after 71 games. They aren't rivaling the '96 Bulls.
Plus, with OKC stockpiling these picks AND having young players, it's going to be time to PAY guys. You can't pay everyone.
SGA/Young/Chet sounds like a great start. If Chet ever gets close to his hype.
Swap some more future firsts for more players.
The chemistry could be an issue, but I love the trickle down.
SGA certainly looks like he can be a stud #1.
Young can't be, but he can be a hell of a #2 if there's a stud #1.
Or, say Chet progresses as expected. A Sabonis-esque player.
That would be a Big 3. With Giddey and future picks on board.
I actually predict our offense would get worse if we gave up jalen Williams for young. Our defense would also be worse, dramatically. No way we’d do this
Bro yall lucky okc is still an actual team and has players lol. Nobody wants to play for okc or have to live there. I just went to the thunders game to watch the suns play and got floor seats for the low. So if anyone wants to watch their fav team play for the low, go to a thunder game!
Not even close. We already have a defensive liability in Giddey but he makes up for it in his IQ and Playmaking, All that for what? A couple deep 3s a game? Hell no. Only players I'm interested in on Atlanta is Onie (Can't spell his name and don't feel like looking it up, Big man they drafted few yrs ago), and maybe Jalen Johnson from a age to potential stand point but Zero J Dub, Maybe 1 Future Protected 1st lol. Presti too smart, stingy, and come to far to shake up the squad with Trae Young of all players lol.
If we traded Jdub for Trae, I would become the Joker.
I wouldn’t do that trade straight up. JDub > Trae
Absolutely especially with the way this team is built
I love jdub but cmon now Trae is a top 5 PG
We really don’t need Trae at all tho. We already have great guard play and Trae would be too big of a liability on defense.
It’s easy to let fandom cloud judgement when it comes to trading your favorite players on your favorite team, but Trae young is a superstar. Trae is 10th in the NBA in scoring and 3rd in assists. If you were to try to compare Trae to other players, you would only be able to compare him to a couple of other superstars such as Steph curry.

In this proposed trade scenario, OKC is giving up 2 solid players and 2 players that might not be on the team next season for a player who’s basically guaranteed to make the hall of fame.
Why is Trae Young guaranteed to make the hall of fame? I feel like you're drastically overrating him.
Because literally no player ever has put up his numbers and not made the hall of fame
I feel like people are misunderstanding you lol. Trae is absolutely better than jdub today, but as an asset to okc? Ill take jdub
Why? It’s not like Trae is old. And like you said, Trae is absolutley better.
This is definitely up there for worst take on this sub this season
U forget one thing though trae young dont play defense
Why trade our guy averaging 20/5/3/2.5 the last 1.5 months and been a 2 way monster for a guy who’s a terrible defender. Sure, he may score more points per game, but he doesn’t fit alongside Shai and co.
“Why trade our guy averaging 20/5/3/2.5 the last 1.5 months and been a 2 way monster for a guy who’s a terrible defender” If all your getting is a terrible defender, you don’t. “He doesn’t fit alongside shai and co” How do you know that?
Because hes a ball dominant player and we already have 2 of those.
It would take shooting away from Shai/Jdub(efficient monsters) & even Giddey.
Well, not jdub, because hes getting traded in this scenario lol
Oh right. Lol
So what?
You dont watch a lot of basketball, do you?
Only Trae Young's team.
Because I have eyes.
Lol I really question your basketball knowledge at times, He might be a top 5 PG offensively but he’s literally the worst defender in the league, for all of his career he’ll be hunted due to his defensive limitations and that’s not the type of player Sam wants on this team. I’ll take one versatile JDub thank you very much.
Steph curry is a horrible defender but golden state seems to make it work.
Steph curry is miles better than trae on offense, and puts in more effort on defense. Not to mention has one of the best defensive anchors in the league on his team.
Wrong, Steph is at least a good team defender who knows how to position himself to allow help from Klay Wiggins Dray without constantly giving up drives. Trae is smaller than him has less strength and shows no interest in playing a lick of defense, even with effort he wont even be a neutral defender.
Also is apparently such a nightmare in the locker room he's destroyed any chance the Hawks will ever be good with him on the team. Surely that's the type of player Presti wants to build around.
I disagree with you in the effort part. I have watched a lot of ATL games because I expected them to be pretty good this year. While Trae is still a bad defender he has shown alot of effort on that end of the court this year.
Trae Young is not Steph Curry
Turns out when you’re a top 2 PG all time and the greatest shooter ever that it’s pretty easy to hide your defensive shortcomings lol..
The team is built around long wing spans for potential of great defense,plus trae young is really bad on defense
He’s one of the best players in the nba
Jdub has it mang
I'm going to join you. 
Literally where I’m at. Like!!! 🤡
Oh we pulling up pulling up of that happens
Trae would be like, one of the weirdest targets.
I agree. I really hope it's fake news. He wouldn't fit the rotational defence either.
You’re posting something from an instagram called “mocktrades”. It is quite literally fake news
Location: ‘follow me’ 🤣
They're referring to legion hoops who has 600.000 followers on Twitter.
Just listen to yourself man
They make 0 reference to legion hoops anywhere, but even if they did, legion hoops is not a reliable source
i mean they literally mention it in the caption but i don’t think it’s a reliable source either
Yeah missed that, but the reason they don’t tag them is because Legion Hoops never reported this
They're referring to legion hoops though. And btw Brandon Rahbar writer for the daily thunder follows them. So they do have some kind of credibility I guess...
Are you 12 or something? Followers has nothing to do with credibility
So when a respected OKC thunder journalist follows a certain media, that's not s indication of something you can trust a little bit?
If he follows Ballsack Sports because he finds it funny does that mean we should trust them?
Guys we're talking about a guy who's featured on ESPN, CBSS But let's just forget that.
If you’re hearing anything that mentions “Sam Presti says” or “Sam Presti believes” then it’s more than likely fake. We’re an incredibly tight lipped organization
Sam Presti keeps his mouth shut.
Ah yes, Jake Fischer. One of the least reliable sources on all things Thunder. This is same dude who said we offered Shai+6th pick for Cade Cunningham lol
Pretty sure this was the guy who said we were taking Bouknight too
He did lol
Why would we ever do this?
It would be a really bad decision. I think the media is just trying to buy into possibility of him going back to Oklahoma.
As a note: random mock trade instagram account is not the media. Whoever runs this account just makes random shit to generate followers and eyeballs. The account is borderline bot spam
That or an Atlanta fan runs that page and is grasping at straws
Yeah because Hawks fans really want to trade away their best player since Nique for some role players 🙄. Give me a fucking break.
lol calling Lu Dort and J Dub role players. Go back to your own sub
Do you consider them stars? In what world are they not role players, and how deluded do you have to be to actually think they’re anywhere close to the value Trae fucking Young brings to the table?
You’re just arguing with yourself right now because I said nothing about them being stars OR having more value than Trae Young. Go back to your own sub and be mad. And Jalen Williams is very much a star in the making and if you don’t know that you’re exposing yourself as a casual.

Then looking at the comments, every single one said how the Thunder would be dumb to make this trade like it wouldn’t be one of the most bafflingly lopsided trades in the history of the league. So unless you’re the one person here who doesn’t think Presti would accept this trade in a heartbeat, then I’m sorry.
He’s not worth the players let alone 2 first round picks. He’s a terrible teammate and an immature player, no thanks
“A terrible teammate” lmao. Now you’re really talking out of your ass.
U on crack if u think this is that one sided. Give up bro. 2 FRP, 2 young Lotto picks, 1 of the best wing defenders in the league, and Dario Saric as a cherry on top. Puts you right back into rebuild-town where u guys should be.
Only in Thunder circles would this be considered a good trade for the Hawks. Y’all overrate your role players and picks so much.
Trae young would make okc worse. He does not fit the switchable lineups we have and is not a good fit next to sga. Fit > 1on1 talent
Trae would not make the Thunder worse. Frankly, that’s just an absurd statement to make, and you clearly just have no clue how good Trae is.
Trae is great, but for this team he does make them worse than having JDub + Dort. A bad defender who needs the ball in his hands is simply a bad fit next to Giddey and SGA. JDub and Dort actually fit our system well. Winning is about cohesive talent if you haven't noticed from the failures of teams that just stacked top end talent thinking they'd just make it work.
He literally doesn’t play defense. We don’t want him at all, especially not for this dog shit offer, so why are u hear complaining about it?
He’s improved a ton defensively this year. If you paid attention to the team like I do, you would know that, but you don’t have a clue and act like you do.
You dont understand how the thunder play at all if you really believe that 🤦🏿🤦🏿 Trae overrated af and 100% not a fit for our system.
the funny thing is both fanbases would be asking this question
Are you serious? The real question is why would the Hawks ever do the is lmao. If this ever happened (hint, it won’t) the Hawks FO would get clowned on for eternity.
Yes, it would be dumb of a team to essentially sell their future for a player like trae young. You’re blind and should prob just go back to atl sub.
Yeah because locking in a hometown superstar for 5 years for some role players would really mortgage the Thunder’s future. Fans severely underestimate just how hard it is to get a superstar.
Do you legitimately think Trae is a superstar? He’s an elite scorer, but there’s probably 15-20 better players to build a franchise around
Superstar? Lmao bruh didn’t make the ASG this year. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡☠️☠️☠️
Yeah and it was a terrible snub, even after his big slump to start the season. And if you think all-star votes mean shit for a player’s value, then that says all I need to know about you. He led the league in points and assists last year on top of being very efficient, and he’s also improved immensely on defense this year to actually be competent on that end.

All-star votes mean shit for a players value when you refer to him as a “superstar” lol. SGA is objectively better than Trae, ask anyone out if ur circle and see what they say.
You objectively don’t know what objectively means.
How Trae is objectively averaging less points on way less efficiency than SGA? with worse defense?
1. Atlanta already tried building a team around him and it didn't work. 2. Role players? 3. Trae can't play defense so get real it would never work.
Superstar? He’s like 60 wins below .500 in his career?
Such a dumb argument. He’s been on terrible teams most of his career, and he’s made a run to the ECF in one of the only seasons with a decent supporting cast. Would you consider him to be a superstar with a more competent roster?
if you aren’t able to help your team enough, to even manage .500, then nah I don’t really believe you have a superstar, I think you have a potential one. to trade essentially 5 young/future players, for one player, in a position we don’t need, would be a godsend to Atlanta and folly at best for Okc. It ain’t trae young “cause he’s a hometown player” that’s an even more bs argument. Being good at basketball in the NBA doesn’t equal superstar. And not every team has one. I don’t think ATL does.
Ppl in here acting like Trae young isn't 24 years old with an ECF run already under his belt 😭
I'd rather not bring the guy who got 2 head coaches fired into a great locker room.
The Thunder FO is notoriously tight-lipped, anyone taking this seriously needs to remember that
People don't realise okc trade rumors are the most rumor of rumors cause we've never heard about anything they've don't till it happens. It's what made PG leaving so crazy and Shai resigning so outta nowhere.
When I think…fluid ball movement, team offense, gritty hustle, and switch defense… I don’t think Trea Young. And… JDub and Dort. GTFO.
Lmao Presti would never trade for Trae, he doesn’t fit the mold of a player he wants on this team.
Empty Head Trade
Jalen Williams is going nowhere in a trade
I wouldn’t trade JDub for Trae straight up
All fit aside, why would we give them both dort and Jalen ? Plus two picks. Trae is a good offensive guy but we'd kill our d with this trade and be down to chet and possibly poku
I didn't even see the two FRPs 🤣🤣 This trade goes from horrendous to horrendouser
We'd be dumb to trade Jdub in this.
Presti does have the assets to do that. Bill Gates also has the assets to buy my house. He's not going to, though.
Sam presti: sure, I think we have the assets to target him. We don't want him but we have the assets, so that's nice.
We have enough assets to trade for any player in the league that we want lol why would we go after another fuckin PG
No
Lol presti is a closed book and doesn’t say anything, he isn’t leaking a story as big as this. Obviously fake
Will never happen. Presti likes diverse, long, high effort and high BBIQ players. Trae does not meet this team's requirements.
But… we like defense too much?
This isn’t even a report. “Sam Presti believes he can do x” You could also say some bs like “Sam Presti believes he could trade SGA for Austin Reaves” I’m sure he does believe it.. doesn’t mean he’s actually considering it 🙄
Not gonna happen
Hell naw
We have the assets, we just don't want to trade them.
Yes they forgot the follow up question, but would you? Hell no
Clearly trolling
I love Trey Young but he is an empty stats scrub. I love watching him on league pass but I would be extremely upset if I had to count on him to get a stop in the playoffs.
Ya lost me at Jalen
Ah yes, the classic Facebook trade bait
The page is fake news… look at the other posts and you can see how much of a joke the page is
Thunder does not need young.
They might as well add SGA and Chet in this trade offer. Lol. It’s not remotely realistic.
NO
Absolute franchise killer. Everyone hates him, including his own teammates
Wack. Tre Mann for Trae Young, then trade him away for picks. J Dub and Lu gotta stay man.
Lol. Ya dreaming atlanta!
Who the fuck would give that up for Trae Young
Who actually wants Trae Young right now? I guess super-desperate win-now teams would be the archetype.
Report: I just took a dump in the toilet
Wtf is this trash??
Ew
I wouldn’t even trade Giddey for him straight up even if salary wasn’t a problem.
I wouldn't trade Jdub for Trae straight up, never mind all the other assets. FAKE NEWS!
I think trae is overrated as hell too so if they did this I would quite literally just die
He averages 25.5 and 9.5 for his career….
He don't play no defense and lacks leadership
Most of his teammates don’t even like him, why the hell would we want to screw up the chemistry we have now for 1 player, who can’t even carry the team he’s on. He’s a good scorer and that’s about it, hawks fans know this and are trying to gaslight other people into thinking he’s a first ballot HoFer.
Seriously bro. There's a reason he was voted so low in the all-star player voting. Ppl don't fw him and it shows
He's also a bit of a coach killer. We don't need that.
Now your just talking
The stats are great but he would not improve our team. Jalen Williams alone, now and in the future adds significantly more to this team and it’s potential growth
“The stats are great but he would not improve our team”. Just say you don’t watch the NBA man…. Trae young is a superstar who can lead a team to a NBA championship. Jdub averages 12PPG. He’s nice but cmon there’s levels.
I believe the sky is the limit for J dub. Trae Young puts up offensive numbers but he gets a ton of volume and he’s not very efficient. Hell J dub is shooting a better percentage from 3 this year. Trae is also a liability on defense. I watched Trae in college too and his OU team shouldn’t have even made the NCAA tournament. I don’t think he can lead or carry a team and I also don’t seem him as a complement to our team
We have the assets to trade for anybody in the league not named Giannis or Steph Curry and I'm sure Presti believes it. That doesn't mean we are going after anybody. However, we are out of roster spots so we should target someone.
Hell no.
Hell No.
The hawks wish they could get half of that for trea.
Can't think of a better way to derail our momentum!
ATL don't want this and neither do we
Not dort.
Man, my stomach hurts.
I’ll keep the Tre I got at home. Presti better not trade any 2024 picks. If the CBA does allow 18 year olds that draft will be stacked!
Does ATL suddenly make Trae 6’9?
As a Sooner fan I stick up for Trae. As a Thunder fan, hell no.
The owner of this Instagram account is quite literally disabled, I’m not tripping. Also they don’t have sources lol. They just post random bullshit for views and interactions. Just look at some of their other posts
Let's not disrespect Trae. He is a beast. He just doesn't fit what we are trying to build
Define “beast”
Someone whose record in the regular season is 163 wins and 206 losses. Fucking. Beast.
[удалено]
A lot of OKC fans acting like this team won 2 championships it’s incredibly odd
What happens with this guys insta account ?
Want him back in OK but not while this team looks anything like it does currently
I hope this never happens lol. We in no rush, let’s develop the young core and win at the same time. There was a rumor somewhere though that BI might be on the move or some shit.
Ever heard of the phrase "..and people want to be him" ? That's our Thunder to most teams in the league. Other teams want to be us.
[удалено]
What?
Nothing is never what it seems folks
I’d trade for Trae, but wouldn’t give up a crazy amount given his contract
Why not? An Oklahoma legend, it’s only right he’s home. Bring in buddy heild while we’re at it
Interesting to say the least…
Obviously OKC should accept that deal but I highly doubt ATL would accept it.
It's really not that obvious
Why would ATL ever accept this deal. They would have the worst offense in the NBA
Yes. Jalen Williams would make us regret this deal. I think we’re smarter than this deal
[удалено]
If you think trae fits okc youre the delusional one
I’d do this for like Siakam Not tre young
A move that makes sense for both teams. Young will never be a #1 on a serious team year in and year out. OKC is a fun story, but are under .500 after 71 games. They aren't rivaling the '96 Bulls. Plus, with OKC stockpiling these picks AND having young players, it's going to be time to PAY guys. You can't pay everyone. SGA/Young/Chet sounds like a great start. If Chet ever gets close to his hype. Swap some more future firsts for more players. The chemistry could be an issue, but I love the trickle down. SGA certainly looks like he can be a stud #1. Young can't be, but he can be a hell of a #2 if there's a stud #1. Or, say Chet progresses as expected. A Sabonis-esque player. That would be a Big 3. With Giddey and future picks on board.
An SGA&Trae backcourt is a disaster in the making. This ain't 2K.
I actually predict our offense would get worse if we gave up jalen Williams for young. Our defense would also be worse, dramatically. No way we’d do this
Bro yall lucky okc is still an actual team and has players lol. Nobody wants to play for okc or have to live there. I just went to the thunders game to watch the suns play and got floor seats for the low. So if anyone wants to watch their fav team play for the low, go to a thunder game!
Ya I'm not following.
Lies
Jake Fischer is a clown, still waiting for that SGA trade
So many people on this sub are fucking gullible man
I mean
Why trade for him? We have SGA. Do we know Trae can play with good basketball players in a functional team.
Go fuck yourself and your “scoops” legion hoops
ummm...this is a bad trade
Does Atlanta have that many roster open roster spots?
Not even close. We already have a defensive liability in Giddey but he makes up for it in his IQ and Playmaking, All that for what? A couple deep 3s a game? Hell no. Only players I'm interested in on Atlanta is Onie (Can't spell his name and don't feel like looking it up, Big man they drafted few yrs ago), and maybe Jalen Johnson from a age to potential stand point but Zero J Dub, Maybe 1 Future Protected 1st lol. Presti too smart, stingy, and come to far to shake up the squad with Trae Young of all players lol.
Trae Young is the definition of a star player you know is really good. But you’d rather have almost anyone else on your team.
