What Trae Young Doesn’t Want You to Know 

The fact that a head coach can't bench a star player in 2023 is a big part of the problem.

It was actually Trae that wanted the hawks to trade for Dejounte and if you’ve seen any videos with Trae and Dejounte, they are really good friends off the court. although Trae might not be the most mature, (even though he’s only 24) Dejounte likes playing with Trae

5:32 that added "TRAE" audio had me laugthing, thanks for the vid dude, very good analysis of the Trae situation

That drama analogy was on point

Hawks superfan, been following this super deeply, yes Trae hasn't been perfect but a lot of the blame (at least recently) goes to McMillan for poor coaching, rotations, and overall gameplans. We'll see what happens with Quin Snyder, I have a lot of optimism as he's ACTUALLY a good NBA coach (unlike Lloyd and Nate), and we'll see this time what happens with Trae Young.

Bro, Nate told Trae, come off the bench or don’t show up to the game. Also he was injured and rehabbing his shoulder. Yall blowing that up to be more than it is.

The hate that the Hawks get is hilarious. Dude really just called them the most toxic organization in the league. Like bro what?? They got Dejounte for cheap and he’s been living up to expectations. Any Hawks fan that watches games will tell you Nate cooked up nothing on the sideline so the firing was justified and not surprising. The old man had mentioned retirement at the beginning of the season, who would want to play for that. Trae is having a down year and still averaging 27 and 10. Snyder is the missing piece this team needs and they’ll bounce back

Landry Fields was the GM of the G-League Austin Spurs. That has to count as some experience

Trae Young, Kyrie-Drama & Ben Simmons officially BFF now 😂🤣😅

Trae wasn’t at the media session after the mcmillan firing because he had a family medical emergency

The biggest factor that a NBA coach cannot bench a star player in 2023 is the biggest problem

Just recently found this channel, love it. 🔥🙌🏽

Trae is showing that when his contract is up or almost up he'll be joining somebody and wants to be with someone now. Hawks need to take heed and get what you can from his trade value.

Excellent video 🔥

bro i love this channel

The speculation in this is wild. The team and coach underperformed. The owner fired the GM and the coach for not being able to get it done. The hawks have a top coach, star players, and a lot of talent. Things aren't as bad here as you think.

Off topic. I follow your channel for good content about NBA. But it crossed my mind and i scrolled through last year of your videos and there is not a single video about the best player of the league. Soon to be 3-peat MVP.... Nice job, man.

I feel like a lot of interior drama can be overblown by the media to create a story, I see this with a lot of teams, and sometimes they’re right, often they aren’t

Now this was a nice researched vodeo

Young is that kind of kid in your street that goes home mad when you don't pick him first in a pick up game.

Legendary channel

that management structure reminds me of my last job I worked at. The owner made his son the manager of our branch & he had absolutely zero experience in the underground utilities section of plumbing. Within 6 months of him taking over, we ran out of material, he cost is 100,000$ jobs & potentially million dollar jobs due to his lack of business sense for the kind of work we do. We had an outside salesman who I hated & had to deal with every day, but the dude had 30+ years experience in the position & he was kind of our manager before the son took over & we were doing 2$ million+ jobs every year. You can say the covid shit had an impact on us, but the sons reluctance to spend money to bring in material during a time there was a serious shortage was a major contributing factor to why we struggled so much. Point is, don't appoint your kid to a position he has no fucking clue how to run. Make him a fellow employee & make him earn that spot.

The production keeps getting better love to see it, keep it up

Ur amazing u are so consistent u are my fav RU-vidr bye far

I'm from Germany I watched every video of you and I think you make the best nba videos.🇩🇪❤️

It's a damn shame that you have to say that you can't threaten to venture star player even if they are playing like crap due to the fact that their egos are so fragile is just crazy. Nah the coach ain't the problem for trying to hold his star accountable

He’s a grown man. An adult. Only he can answer the question of while he bailed. It’s tough love. A great way to teach him responsibility. They don’t need to hold his hand. And they shouldn’t in this situation.

Very cool and completely right

Looks this guy, always in every video looks how to make a reference in the video about his previous video, and it's always perfect

_"What Trae Young doesn't want you to know..."_ *He's related to El DeBarge.* 😏

My respect for Collins 📈📈📈📈

John Collins always been the leader, and people STILL wanted to trade him since forever

Do the blazers please

The Trae hate is oozing out of this guy.

Ngl I was literally refreshing to see if he posted 😂

Did... Did you reupload this video?

I'm an Englishman been watching the NBA since the 80s but seems in the last 20 years the players are bigger than the teams and the media feed this notion. One player has never won the championship. If you belittle the job of the coach then he has every right to leave your ass on the bench. and rather than moan you should be doing everything you can to get back in the team the winning and loosing stops with the coach he needs the last say. The players have far to much power these days. The coach hurt my feelings I want a trade, I don't want to be here anymore I want a trade, my friends playing over there and I want to be with him I want a trade, You sign a contract and get paid big money earn it why these "stars" get a pass is beyond me. I think the worst one of all time happened recently Ben Simmons that kids a joke and we will see in 18 months if he's still in the league.

You don’t have to be popular KOBE PROVED THAT 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️ spittin facts my guy

Hi I’m a big fan

I hate sports, all of them. I stumbled into this on YT. Good luck with your channel, you seem to know what your talking about, who ever your audience is, they should listen to you.😎

Exactly, why do they think Coach Quin can solve the drama in the Hawks!

When Trae started to speak, he reminded me of Zed from Police Academy

Nate wanted to resign multiple times but the Hawks kept saying no. So after allstar break he said he's not coming back so they "fired" him.

The game is always bigger than 1 man.

What has Hawks achieved without Trae? Nothing.

I really don't think people understand how valuable a mid first round pick really can be. If the draft is stacked and you are a contender with a mid first round pick you can make your bench depth way better with way less salary than comparable veterans. If that guy you picked up turns out to be an all star future player, then you get that much closer to a dynasty that can actually sustain itself for years to come.

Trea looking at me like that in the thumbnail would make me have to square up

Collins is going to make a great Pacer going forward once they pick him up this offseason. He's going to love playing for Rick and along side Tyrese.

Make a video on what happened to the Bulls

3:45 You just sneak dissed KD and Kyrie with the footage assist... 😆😆

Honestly I'm a huge trae young fan and one thing I noticed Y'all are always hating on him it need to stop

Devin Booker has had 5 coaches in his career.. Never heard anyone calll him a coach killer.. smh.. This Trae shit is way overblown.. Lloyd Pierce was only here for the tank.. And Nate was too stubborn for his own good.. His rotations were horrible.. Heck Luka will be on his 3rd coach too soon.. Keep that same enegy..

John also ended this with, the coach was to old school. He needs to coach older mature guys, not young guys.

This is the brutal truth, that Atlanta Hawks stans (homers) don't ever want to admit to.

Not all Traes are created equal

He’s the Kyler Murray of the NBA.

Ayo that I hate drama thing felt personal lmfaoo, more hawks content though pleasee!! Most interesting team in the league lowkey

this video proved nothing, hate to tell you but rarely you will find a star player in this generation that doesn't have a ego. trae wanted to REST to take care of him self and his shoulder so he didn't injure it more and the coach thought he was invincible. a lot of other players and members of staff didn't like him either. the reason he probably didn't show up for the conference was because last time he went unprepared he got threw out to the reporters like chum to sharks and he didn't want that to happened again. hawks are 2-0 sense they fired nate. hopefully we can improve more. also just to add DJ and trae were alr homies and trae wanted DJ and its fitting and he's doing good in his role. trae also getting "left" out of the all star game doesn't prove anything because he was snubbed. someone having 27 and 10 shouldn't be left out for jrue who is good but only has 16&6.

The hawks are probably kicking themselves for not keeping luca.

That “gamer winner” was a an uncalled travel

I did not know that John Collins was asking for a trade. Yes he been in trade talks, but I thought it was not the direction by him?

Trae literally missed the practice because of personal reasons do ur research first

Yeah, another outsider that’s overblowing the situation. Trae for sure can improve in some leadership areas, but you can’t force a guy to be the all encompassing leader just because he’s your best player. Lloyd Pierce was never a good coach and Nate McMillian was “ok” but never looked at as a great coach. Quinn Snyder is a very respected coach in the league and one of the better ones so if it doesn’t work out there, then there might be action on Trade Trae front. Also, it is apparent that a lot of outside players hate Trae. A guy that averages 27 and 10 and at least is in the playoff discussion doesn’t make the All Star team. Anyway, point is, Hawks have never had a great coach till now (unlike Luka) and will be interesting to see how they mesh.

PLEASEEE talk about Ja Morant behaviour because we have more and more accusations concerning him and Everyone tryna help him become better but he doesn’t change

That the hair on his head actually indeed are pubic hair transplanted to his head

As long as trae is their leader, this team is not going anywhere

I'm a Hawks fan and this video is spot on.

Wow.. didnt know it was that bad behind the scenes In Atlanta

I'm 40 back when I watch basketball. Coaches ran the team, not the players. Phil Jackson Pat Riley Larry Brown Red Auerbach Chuck Daley Greg Pop. Kobe and MJ listened to Phil Jackson

Trae young has one foot out the door In Atlanta, he ready to request a trade, walk out when the opportunity presents itself

Traes teammates not liking him and cowardly not attending questions even though HE WANTED GONE. I will never understand the hype.

I can tell you don’t like Trae just relax he’s human

Thanks for the picks Hawks #GoSpursGo

This is a NASTY level of trolling Trae Young AM Hoops. Even for you.

Life as a hawks fan 😅

Landry fields??? What the hell is this guy still doing in the NBA??? GM at 34 years old??? Dude barely had value playing, what makes him possess value running the front office??? Bruh.

Even if dude was squeaky clean I'd want no part of him

Nate didn't want to be the coach from day 1.

Damn that's some drama

You’re the coach…..if your star player is being a prick you should bench him….end of story the notion that Nate was wrong for that is straight up ridiculous

same reason no-one wanted KEMBA after the league figured him out.

But Trae was not in the wrong in the interaction with that reporter. That reporter is not his fucking father or anyone from the Hawks’ front office. That was an in-house issue regardless of what the public saw. If I was in the Hawks’ front office I’d have that reporter’s job stripped from him so quick

at 1:29 yea but how else is he gonna learn or get consequences hes gonna be immature to his coaching staff and everyone else around him

He’s slowly developing the reputation of a coach killer

he traded luka for that drity lollipop

This is not going to age well. Respect your journalism approach. It’s well put together, but I don’t believe trae is some malicious or selfish guy. He just doesn’t like media. We will see how he does with Snyder.

another insane take blowing media speculation out of proportion. the fact that all of this is coming from a guy skimming bleacher report articles makes it all the more hilarious

All these young players are so SOFT. They’re like sensitive little children that can’t handle any criticism

It's so many stars that u can't bench fr literally

Why is reaching the conference finals the worst thing that could happen to the team? I think that’s the farthest the Hawks franchise could reach in the post season

Yikes…

He's now got a no nonsense headcoach......

I need to re listen to what he says or I need subtitles when Trae speaks

i think he and the team tanked to get Dejounte and have Nate fired entitled but genius

dude's pissed off at life for ending up with that haircut 🤡🤡🤡

I wouldn't of showed up the that press either all they gonna do is be like "why did you get the coach fired?" Trae gonna give a nothing response and they gonna report trae young says he was a bum

If they don't pick up Ted Lasso as the next head coach... its GAME OVER

You are an outside guy so stay on the outside!
