Yup. Looks like a veteran out there. Most impressive rookie I've seen so far in limited samples. |

Doncic vs Young last night. Doncic started out hot and Dallas was up big, Trae had a really rough first half although he was able to walk around Dennis Smith at wll, but no finish and all passes to Alex Len went unfinished. Doncic cooled in the second half and then Trae took over down the stretch with 12 4th quarter points as Atlanta came back from down 26 to win home opener. |

It was funny watching Luka last night. Pre-game when he got a high 5 and mini hug from Lebron he had this glazed look in his eye and ear to ear grin like it was 1968 and he was a pony tailed school girl and Lebron was John, Paul or Ringo. Then Luka went out and missed every shot he took in the first half. Played a lot better when he settled down in the 2nd half. |

Doncic is going to be so good. Just lead his team down the stretch to knock off the Warriors. |

Doncic and Ayton have separated themselves from the rest of the pack. Doncic has been the best rookie but Ayton is coming on strong. Second monster game in the past couple of weeks. JJJ is fading. Carter has been playing better but he has to stay out of foul trouble. Gilgous Alexander is going to be good and looks like a steal. Kevin Knox is stepping up also. Playing pretty well after being slowed by injuries. |

top 3 basically set in stone as Doncic, Ayton and Young have distanced themselves from the pack. |

Trae Young is shooting 39% from the field and 26% from 3 point land this year. Only a fucking lunatic would think he's having a good year. |

Its interesting how scared they were to play him down the stretch against Minnesota. Kept Lin in til the 1 minute mark of the 4th because they knew he had no chance against Rose. He made a big shot in OT i believe but his D was so bad they took to trapping Rose at half just to get the ball out of his hands. |

Only a fucking moron would key on shooting percentage when talking about a rookie PG who has the responsibility of running the whole team. And the fact of the matter is his shooting has continued to improve as the season has progressed. He got off to a great start in October, but in November he hit a rut and shot 35% from the field. For the month of December he shot 42% from the field. He's also 9th in the entire league in assists despite playing with arguably the worst roster in the league. He's running pick and rolls with Alex Len and Dedman. he is 100% 3rd in the ROY race. TL:DR = that's cute that you care enough to go look up a stat, but you can go eat a bag of dicks. |
