Trae Young 'embarrassed' the Bucks with his shimmy - Stephen A. | First Take 

Trae was one of Kobe's last mentees; the OG would be proud of Trae✊🏿

Trae young has shimmyed and embarrassed the entire eastern conference

What a time to be a NBA fan. The sheer amount of talent is incredible.

Trae is the real deal. You’re not stopping him. You can only hope he has an off night.

That shimmy was soooooo disrespectful 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Y'all must not seen Trae in high school. He use to the pressure and the hate

Trae Young had Giannis stressin after that shimey 😱😱😂😂😂😂

Trae young floater is Tony Parker like is an unstoppable move and Trae mastered it too.

Stephen A's face when Max said Middleton was 0 for 9 from 3 was priceless lool

What all the commentators are missing about Trae's shimmy is this: Most players shimmy AFTER they make a shot in celebration. Trae shimmyed BEFORE he shot - then nothing but net.

Trae been doing this since high school 😂

he’s hard to guard mainly bc of how he doesn’t over dribble. if you really watch how he plays every dribble and move is calculated. he bases his moves on how the center is playing the P&R, if he’s playing low, he knows he has the middy, he’s playing high, he can keep the defender behind him and wait for the roll and lob. both defenders playing low, quick move and 3. he’s very calculated and precise, no wasted movements.

Give my Hawks their props matter of fact “Don’t “ because that’s what fuel their 🔥 fire. All three series they trail late in games and by large numbers but never panic just keep playing. No one still take us serious but you gonna learn today 🤣😂🤣

Atlanta did right by getting Trae Young aka Shimmy Trae or Ice Trae the Hawks prince

Don't leave out John Collins! When him and Trae was on the court together, it was a different energy.

I know Kawhi’s championship run was like 5 minutes ago but that aside, as a *whole* these have been the most epic playoffs in years. The future is now fr.

everytime Hawks setting screen for Trae..Bucks backing off like he's Ben Simmons. best way to slowdown him is to keep switching.

Bro remember when people people put Ben over trae young

JC was huge too, he always come up strong specially in the end game with those rebounds, dunks and timely shots

Trae might win a chip before luka... trae is a showman... gigi favorite player Trae took down ny philly and soon greek freak...

Stephen A. was unusually on point right here. This man is a bonafide superstar! He's got the game and the swagger. Name me 15 players who are better / affect winning more than Trae. I'll be waiting

Ice Gang, stand up! 🥶🏀🥶🏀🥶🏀🥶

*Middleton is the most disappearing Robin ive ever seen INVISIBILITY CLOAK O_______O*

It's like Max said. We're seeing such a huge shift in the NBA. Almost like around the time back in the eighties when the top 4 teams were usually the lakers, the celtics, The Detroit Pistons and the Blazers. Usually around this time of year you see the lakers, the heat, Warriors and cavaliers. But like I was telling somebody the other day, I don't think anybody saw this as your final 4 teams. I'm a hawks fan. I totally went into this after the win against the Knicks say whatever happens from this point forward to me is bonus because they made it past the 1st round. This is a great time to be an NBA fan to see almost like history in the making or like a change of the guard. And it makes me wonder what will happen next year when these NBA players actually get a full year of rest and a lot more training of working with their teams, what kind of playoffs will we see next year

SAS with ACTUAL ANALYSIS?! Woooooowwwwww

Shout out to @jimrome for being the only sports host for showing legitimate respect to Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks. It's funny how now everyone wants to talk about them all of a sudden.

I said it in the first series “ the Hawks are just playing basketball “ no individuals no egos, just a bunch of guy’s going out and playing to win no matter who gets the credit.

He plays basketball, what ever it takes to win, he will do it

I need us to also talk about Nate’s coaching!!!

Ice trae gave them mama’s cooking just how KB gave you mama’s cooking Stephen .A 😂😂

We all been waiting for this haha

I love these younger stars, and the fact that they are all on small market teams. Lets Goooooo

Trae is one of the few real hoopers in the NBA. So much of the league is just winners of the genetic lottery. This guy has worked at the craft and developed true skills. The Bucks deserved 150% of that shimmy for the embarrassing defense they played. No lie, I'm a Bucks fan but it's getting harder with every playoff game this year and I'm heavily considering jumping ship very soon.

All I can think about is STEVEN A “WHY WAS YOU AT THEM COLLEGES BOI”

It is so great to see him torch everyone else now. That floater alley oop combo is the new pick and roll.

2018: Maybe we took the wrong guy 2019: He's good 2020: Who's Luka? 2021: He definitely can't leave Atlanta

To me the most interesting part about all of this is that Trae is only 22 playing at this level. He's just getting started

Just play Giannis or Portis at the 5 Give more minutes to Forbes Stop playing Jeff Teague

He ain't smilin in game 2. I think he gonna cry. Happy Friday Trae boyyy

Really good breakdown S.A.

i remember when some weren’t sold on him bc of the summer league now look at him

You right about that max .. holiday and Middleton has to show up ..not just one

That was surprisingly good analysis by Stephan A

Tre in that pick and roll and that floater is automatic give Nate McMillan alot of credit

Trae young plays like a mobile quarterback

The word you're looking for max is consistent

Wow Trae is the truth at 22. NBA will be interesting going forward.

Middleton is a roller coaster 🎢

ATL WE HERE

Stephen A's actual basketball analysis is really something special to listen to

I know this is a debate show but i am really happy if max and stephen A Agree in some things.😀 nice content and analysis from both

Another guard I know would go crazy once he gets his chance in the playoffs is Zach Lavine for sure

Can you believe it’s the Conference Finals and the two matchups are the Suns vs. Clippers and Hawks vs. Bucks??? Remember when all we used to see was the Spurs or Warriors against whatever team LeBron was in the East for like 8 years in a row? It’s nice to see teams draft well and develop their players…

I am the Worlds biggest Pacers fan, but I am almost a Hawks fan now, because of Trae Young..I hope they win the Championship! What a great team!! What a great Coach!! Trae Young is the MVP of the league hands down!! GO HAWKS!!!

We got ourselves a new goat on our hands

Two days ago SAS said Atlanta would get swept 😂

Here's a thought Mike Buddenholzer, why not double teaming Trae. I'm not saying double him the whole night, but have you ever heard of controlling the pace of the game. Make the other players on ATL beat you instead of their best player. Buddenholzer has to be better at making adjustments

Thank you Kobe. Thank you Steph Curry for revolutionizing the NBA. This game still great.

I don't like you, Mice Trae. But, ball out young man. He better get paid more than Ben Simmons.

I can see the debate of Trae and Luca for the next 15 years

I’m with broussard…. I need to see more of it… too many people nowadays to quick to hop on the wagon… the entire NBA is injured this year… I saw Jamal Murray and jimmy butler do the same thing last year and now crickets

Middleton isn’t better than Collins, change my mind.

I Love this kid

Trae is a true PG but also a scorer. He's Steve Nash and Tony Parker-esque. You can't stop guys like that who because its the nature of the position. Too much handles, skill, and basketball IQ. He can shoot, get to the paint and if you try him he'll just dish it to his teammates who'll score like the key clutch 3 Collins made in game 1 to get them back in the game with like 3 mins left when they were down 4. Nate Mac has taught Trae how to get his teammates involved and be more a of PG than a scorer but also got him to understand he can also score.

They both got to show up this holiday💍

The Bucks Just simply underestimated the Hawks .

These clowns change their opinion every day.

Trae and lamelo had the same swag in the game. If lamelo will be given a decent teammate to compete in the playoffs. I see trae vs lamelo rivalry in the ECF for years to come.

Who else is here after the Bucks won the series and are going to the finals instead of the Hawks

Atlanta looked good

Hawks go as far as Trae takes him he needs to be on his game almost every night. But his teammates support him when he's having an off night. Game 7 against the sixers he was cold for most of the game but his teammates backup him up. It's gonna be tough to beat the bucks four times, but they at least got one so far and too homecourt.

Revisit and watch Embiids facial expression in all of Game 7 PHI vs ATL. There's no focus, fire, intensity at all. Compared to previous years. Almost a look of guilt. He knew what was up.

this the first time I acc agree everything Stephen a said .

Magic & Bird Lebron & Steph next up: Luka & Trae best playmaker vs. best shooter

I want the hawks versus Phoenix so bad in the finals you got 2 good big men and 2 good point guards And really that's 2 teams no one expected to get there it would be a nice change no super teams

And they're losing by 32 at half. Lmao, that's more embarrassing to me than a little shimmy in a close game.

Brook Lopez was a sick defender vs Brooklyn.... so what happened???

This is great. I love this. A super team is not going to win. 3 of 4 teams are places players never wanted to go. This is great basketball right now. Even now we have all these tv people. All talking about guys going to one of 4 big market teams. I don't care who wins. As long as it's not LA. I'm so happy for suns and Hawks. Even Milwaukee I hope wins. This is one of best playoffs in the last 20 years. Just behind Toronto winning.

Jrue holiday made all defensive first team and he couldn’t contain trae at all

If this is the case how bad did James harden his team when he did what he did? That was much worse than this.

Middleton & Holiday are streaky. When they are both on with Giannis, who's normally 30/12, MIL has an unstoppable big 3. If Middleton is off and Holiday on or vice versa then Bucks have to stick with hot hand. Last night for example, Holiday should have taken last shot to tie, he was open but Middleton didn't swing ball to him, and Bud didn't call play for Holiday. If they are both off then Giannis has to shoot more. It's just that simple and not once have they played like that intentionally Expect another big game in GM2 from IceTrae - Isiah Thomas 2.0.

And still no Buddenhoser criticism!

Trae Young is an all nba atleast 3rd team. If only John Collins can soon evolve especially defensively, if Collins can average 2 spg and 2 bpg that's instant all nba defensive team if he's ahead of other players, and it makes the Hawks a Nightmare for opponents. DeAndre Hunter is getting into a force as well, if they 3 keep getting great numbers, it's a matter of time until they are all Allstars, Trae, JC, and Hunter should be untouchable

Max has been winning every debate for a while now

You shimmy, you better win the whole thing

My 2 favorite players ever Harden and Trae with the most disrespectful shimmies

I see a flagrant 1 coming....it's the only way they can shake him up some.

Khris Middleton is like a better Kuzma. He can be good, but you better not be relying on him.

Bucks need to go zone. Big guards can harass and will make it hard for Trae to shoot over; defensive presence in the middle will cut the out some of the floaters and in the back will cut down lobs

I like the attack on titan intro

Those floaters look ridiculously easy.

Hawks are kinda like golden state when they won the title wit curry

Trae looking like Parker and Curry combination

Middleton looking like playoff P

3:22 new short meme

Only man to kill the Bucks (the champs this POST SEASON) with that much single dominance and clutchness. Up next for GREAT SMALL GUARDS…

Hes having fun playin, passion and job. All in one. I dont get the embarrassing part.

Crazy how KD had 48 and they lost to Milwaukee at home, Trae Young puts up 48 and they win on the road.

trae > luka 🕺🏾

Just the other day sas was just saying bucks is bigger and lopez going to be open for threes look at him now praising the hawks lopez gotta go i see hawks making him a believer now
