    I hope he becomes close cause I cried when my hawks traded Donic. I was one of the few people who felt Donic was going 2 be a beast.

    I love how people say he’s more similar to Nash instead, when that’s what was said about Curry too. You people are too idiotic to even realize that you are still comparing him to Steph by saying that.

    Everybody acting like doncic is a legend already and Trae HAS to become the next greatest shooter? only their first season, both are great so far… With the extra 1st round pick, think hawks can win that trade

    Then the next 3 days happened ???

    Idk why people think that trade would be horrible. Before the draft happened both teams came out and said they wanted that guy. It was weird when the draft happened and they picked this guys. The trade made it normal. Atlanta wanted Trae

    Steph Curry wonโ€™t be the next Trae Young b/c he doesnโ€™t want to be a pass first point. Trae can go either way. Just like Nash.

  24. dont subscribe if you do ill find you

    It’s clearly just disrespectful that your comparing a rookie to a NBA future Hall Of Famer

    Last 3 years best rookie! Dont think so, ever heard of Donavan Mitchell! Dallas won’t even sniff the playoffs! Luka is good but let’s stop anointing him into the hall of fame!
