With Dejounte Murray on the roster, it would be tempting for the Hawks to trade Trae Young and get a boatload of assets in return.

Young is fun to watch but he’s still really wreckless. You have to ask can this guy be a number 1 on a championship team especially since he needs to dominate the ball or he really becomes ineffective.

Yeah, I think Young would need to tone it down a bit. Knick's fans would probably go crazy to get him.

NBA needs to rethink the take foul or at least make it make sense. Jordan Poole makes a FT, they inbounds to Ja, he passes the ball backwards to Bane, meanwhile Anthony Lamb goes up and fouls Steven Adams, hack a Shaq on Adams, been around forever. The ref calls it a take foul. Again the pass by Ja went BACKWARDS. Kerr then gets a T arguing it, Bane makes both T FT"s and then Adams makes the FT's. Steve Javie immediately said terrible call.

And then they call a foul on Jaren Jackson grabbing Wiseman's jersey and inexplicably let Klay Thompson shoot the FT's.!

If the Suns had a two-way roster spot open (which they don't) I wouldn't mind taking another look at Saben Lee.

Remember when they should’ve traded us KD for nothing but Cam Johnson and picks?

Remember when people thought substituting Bridges for Cam was heresy even if the trade worked with picks and an expiring straight up?

first player to ever have a 60/21 line in a triple double. that was a special performance.

All that to edge a crappy Knicks team in OT.
He might be the most ball dominant player in NBA history.
dallas slept for about 46 mins and then doncic took over. and it was all effort type plays in the paint, nothing really overly spectacular before that last intentional miss/put back combo that he had to tie the game. Knicks were down a couple players, but they had beaten the mavs the last 5 times in Dallas. I don't know what is more impressive, Doncic's stat line or the 9 point comeback in 33 seconds. I think teams were like 0-13,000+ in that scenario.

When was it ever Cam Johnson and picks? This is the first I heard of this. We are idiots if that was the asking price for KD.

Good thing we came to our senses and drafted Ayton #1.

Took longer than I expected but Markkanen has become a very good player. Has 23 at the half against Warriors tonight, 5 threes already. It surprises me it took this long but I guess he's been playing different positions until this year where utah lets him shoot lots of 3's.
Not as big but Patrick Baldwin Jr is going to be pretty good too, he's not strong enough yet probably a year or two away but he can shoot it and with strength maybe he won't be so averse to going to the rim because he's quite long. The Warriors are down Steph, Wiggins and Klay tonight and Kuminga got 3 fouls so they had to put PBJ in and he had a nice run 6 points 3 boards +6 in 7 minutes.
Definitely feel better about the young guys than I did a few weeks ago Wiseman had a nice run again he's had 3 good games in a row and on his way to a 4th good one. Seems to finally be figuring it out

Makes a lot of good points.
100% dependent on being ball dominant
Has clashed with every coach he’s had in the NBA
Only knows how to play one way.
Maybe the single worst defender in the NBA.
Hyped as a 3 point bomber but really not a good 3 point shooter.
Oh I wasn’t saying we should trade for him it’s just NBA news.
I don’t think highly of young at all
Id trade cam, crowder, saric and 2-1sts for him all day long
Him and Booker together would be a disaster

Trae Young is talented but I'm not sure how far a team can go with a player like him. Still, I'd make that trade in a heartbeat. But there's no way Atlanta would IMO.

I hope you got a chance to watch the game.
