Who else thought Trae Young would be a bust?

He's improving gradually from what i can see

I thought he would bust because I underestimated his passing and thought he wasnt good enough of a shooter to overcome bad decision making. I was right on the defense but it doesn't matter dude is a superstar. Also I said dude was far too ugly to be a star, basically I was a hater

Funny part is he might be making people eat their words on the defensive front as well. Since he doesn't have to carry the entire offense weight anymore like the last 2 years he is putting tons more effort on the defensive side of the ball this year. It is very noticeable and so far he is actually about a middle of the pack defensive Guard with a 106 defensive rating which is right around Jrue Holiday and Jason Tatum this year and a little ahead of Jaylon Brown. If he can even hold an avg defensive effort and game like he has these 1st 5 games with his offense he is a superstar imo as his horrible defense last year was his 1 big true negative.

I thought he would either be a bust or super great. If he was not skilled enough he would not get playing time the way he plays. I could see him being a much worse Jason Williams. He still takes some awful shots and I truly believe that is what is going to stop him from becoming the champ as a first option.
