No love for Trae Young? He’s got 35 points.

It is impressive, but I prefer an NBA that isnt dominated by frail PGs. So no love for Trae.

I'm really happy for him. I don't have any strong feelings about the kid but there were just so many people talking about him as a possible bust, it's nice to see him go out and be strong in his first few games.

I look at Trae the same way I look at IT. When he’s hot he’s really hot. If not he’ll give up as much as he scores. Consistency over chucking will do him some good.

Yeah for a while he looked like he was going to be a star in the NBA.  Good win for the Clippers!
Is it wrong to dislike Houston and GS a lot now?

Denver with a nice game against GSW, big win.  So pretty much every team is mortal early in the season.

Maybe I said this a little early.  Lead down to 3 with 29.5 seconds.  Cmon Clippers!

I said in the offseason that imo the Hawks won the trade with the Mavs. Hope Trae keeps it up and proves me right!

I'd be very surprised. He won't get to pick on laughable defences like Cleveland every week

Luka Doncic is the real deal, and he's been solid on both ends.

Last game: 26 points (8-16 FG, 4-9 3P) with 6 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals, and a block.

Against a terrible T-Wolves team. ;)

Completely agree. I think he can develop into a Harden-like player on the offensive end, but with defensive ability / effort. Maybe not the gaudy numbers, but even so.

Trae Young's highlights were impressive. More drives than I expected. Some lovely passes off of those drives too. Good balance between scoring and creating for others. There were a lot of outside shots but more balance than I had expected. Good quality outside of the hot outside shooting.
