The NBA regular season continues, and the Hawks vs. Heat game is officially underway. In this game, the two teams performed very well on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. On the offensive end, the two teams played not only fast but also very steadily. On the defensive end, both teams also played their own characteristics. At the end of the first quarter, the Hawks led by one point. At the end of the second quarter, the Hawks led by nine points. At the end of the third quarter, the Hawks led by 14 points. Entering the final quarter, the Heat blew the clarion call to fight back and at one point chased the trailing score to only 1 point. However, the Eagles withstood the pressure at the decisive moment and defeated the Eagles 110-108.
Objectively speaking, there are only two reasons for the Heat to lose this game. First: Butler's downturn. Butler played 36 minutes and shot 5-of-13, including 1 of 2 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, and got 13 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists. In this game, Butler not only did not score efficiently, but also did not score in the last minute, and this goal is undoubtedly the key to affecting the trend of the game. Second: Hiro's absence. In this game, the Heat's rotation lineup was very inefficient because of Hiro's absence, and this was undoubtedly the key to the Heat's loss of the game.
Okay, after talking about the losing Heat, let's talk about the eagles who won. Without a doubt, most fans will say that the Hawks are most thankful to win this game is Trae Young. Yes, Trae Young's statistics for this game are really good. Trae Young played 36 minutes and shot 6-of-15, including 4-of-11 three-pointers and 12-of-15 free throws, with 28 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 8 turnovers. Obviously, Trae Young's 28+7 stats are really shining, which is why everyone will say that the Eagles won this game is the credit of Trae Young. However, in my opinion, although the Hawks won this game, Trae Young should still be criticized. To put it bluntly, Trae Young is a double-edged sword, the Eagle can win because of him, the Eagle almost was reversed because of him, and it is most appropriate to describe it with "Success and Defeat".
First of all, Trae Young has a very soft shooting feel, has a very sharp breakthrough ability, and has a very good ability to make fouls. To put it bluntly, Trae Young has no scoring blind spots on the basketball court, and he can score in any position. In addition to his excellent scoring ability, Trae Young also has a very good big picture view, he is also often able to deliver beautiful assists, and the Hawks' offense is very smooth under his combing.
After saying the good side, let's talk about the bad side. There is no doubt that Trae Young's worst side is that he handles key balls and decisive moments very badly. To give two simple examples, the first one: the Hawks held the lead in the final moments of the game, but this time Trae Young actually came straight to a long three-pointer. Second: In the final stage of the final quarter, the Heat began to pack Trae Young, after the pack Trae Young did not have a quick shot, or it can be said that Trae Young did not know how to deal with it, for which Trae Young made a mistake and the Heat quickly completed the score. And, Trae Young's 8 mistakes in the whole game is the best proof.
All in all, Trae Young is now an All-Star player. However, if Trae Young wants to go one step further and become a true superstar, then the first thing Trae Young has to learn is to control the rhythm of the game and learn how to control the key balls of the game. Only then will Trae Young have a chance to become a true superstar. On the contrary, if you don't know how to handle the key ball, then Trae Young really can't become a superstar.
