Hawks star Trae Young hasn't been in great form in the last two games, with the Wizards winning 117-114 in the last game. But Trae Young hit just six of his 22 shots and had 25 points, four rebounds and eight assists. Playing Pistons Trae Young was even less efficient today, shooting only 5 of the 20 shots and scoring only 14 points, as well as 5 turnovers, and the team was defeated by the Pistons after overtime. The Hawks played the Wizards and pistons in both games, neither of which is in the top 10 in the East. The Pistons, in particular, are a rebuilding team in the bottom of the East this season, and it's a bit unexpected that the Hawks have lost.
Trae Young is irresistible for losing today, and his performance was very bad. In fact, the performance of Trae Young in the last game almost led to the team losing, if it were not for the full output of his teammates, the Eagles could not win the last game against the Wizards. Trae Young played iron 31 times in both games, which is not a good sign.
Some fans said that Trae Young's performance was so stable some time ago, why is the last two games in a slump? There are two main reasons: First, although the wizards and pistons have average strength, the level of outside defense is not bad, and the Pistons have Pop, an excellent outside defender. The Pistons' outside players, such as Cunningham, are defensively conscious, and Hayes is able to run and jump, and has great energy. Both Stewart and Bagley on the inside have forward-level movement speeds, and the blocking and changing defenses are not loss-making. They can impose some degree of restriction on Trae Young.
On the other hand, there is Trae Young's own reason. How should we evaluate Trae Young as a player? Trae Young averaged 29 points per game in the second season of his career, and few people in the NBA have been able to do so since its inception. James averaged just 27 points per game in the second season of his career, and Trae Young did just that in addition to his superior technique, excellent foul-making ability, and feel. Trae Young is actually a star who relies more on his touch, if he feels hot, he can score 20 points in a single quarter like Curry Thompson, hitting a variety of difficult goals.
If Trae Young doesn't feel good, he could be in a slump throughout the game. And compared with curry Thompson and other stars, Trae Young's physical talent is more average, his height is only 1 meter 85, and he weighs less than 90 kilograms. Killing the inside line when the hand is not good is the most effective way to attack, and this season the NBA has modified the blowing rules, and Trae Young's previous foul-making methods have been weakened. How would Trae Young attack if it didn't kill or injure? You can only rely on blocking or three-point forced shooting, but the efficiency of playing is too low. So the frequency of his downturns became higher.
Today, in addition to Trae Young, the Hawks have 5 players scoring in double figures. Substitutes Williams and Gallinari have stable outputs, and it is a good phenomenon that all the people are soldiers. But as the leader of the Eagles, Trae Young will be in big trouble if he continues to be in such a downturn. The Hawks are currently ranked 10th in the East, and their ranking needs to be further improved, and if they want to impact the playoffs, Trae Young must adjust his form and play harder and more stable on the court. The team can no longer accept his slump in two consecutive games. Dear readers, how do you rate Trae Young's performance in this game?
