Trae Young or Steph Curry?

[LeGiannis]

If Trae Young and Steph Curry were both in the same draft and same age, who would you pick based on what we have seen so far?
Trae Young is showing us things early in his career that it took Steph many years to show. I'm thinking Trae Young might end up being better than Curry based on his current trajectory.

Curry is Gary Payton compared to Young. That kid is a certified traffic cone on defense.

Yeah, thats telling me

Well yes

steph without question

[DMC]

Yeah it's not really even comparable.

[Dirks_Finale]

He said Trae Young :lol

[horseshue]

Trae with 7pts +7 turnovers, and team worst -15. I think it's safe to say Stef is by far better overall player.

[Seventyniner]

We have already seen Steph's ceiling and it's league-breaking. Trae might reach that, but most likely won't. I definitely take Steph.

Even if Young was better than Curry, we'd never be able to falsify that unless he also happened to get lucky enough to be teamed up with multiple other superstars on one of the best teams ever assembled. Not everyone gets that lucky.

Edit: We can confirm it if he achieves equal success with less support; but we can never falsify it if he doesn't. Because people can always say "yeah but if he was on the 2016 Warriors..."

Basketball is a team sport tbh

Yes there esceptional players but at the end of the end of the day, team success is team success

Trae only exists because of Steph, and he’s still not as good. But it’s closer than people think.

not saying trae young but people are selling him short.

lol one bad game in January is the deciding factor?

[Spurtacular]

I'll take Michael Adams over both of them. :lol

How about before KD though? They were a team of draftees and vets that still won plenty.

Trae isn’t in the same tier of shooter. Steph never shot under 40% from three, even when shooting it 8, 9, 10 times a game :lol

Trae has never shot above 36% from 3. I’m sure he’ll continue to improve, but I think Dame efficiency and effectiveness should be his target.

[Dex]

I'll take the one that has won 3 titles and was a unanimous MVP.

About sums it up.

its funny how some people like to say "oh dame and trae can consistently hit from just as deep as steph, hes not any better than them if he didnt have such a good team" except for the fact that he consistently shoots far higher percentages on those exact same shots, and was doing so before KD came around, and before GS was even seriously contending. he was basically doing it from day 1, only far more efficiently than anyone has ever done it, and still continues to do so. once dame or trae starts shooting over 42% on threes for multiple seasons, then theres a conversation. but if they keep hovering 5-6% lower, then its not a conversation. steph has been and continues to be simply superior. plus hes a better defender (not great, but still underrated and not absolute trash like dame and trae), and runs an offense far more effectively. he can shoot more shots than those guys, but the ball still moves so much better, and hes a large part of it.

steph is in a league of his own when it comes to score-first point guards. and i honestly cant think of another score-first PG all time that > steph tbh. but maybe someone can think of some. Isiah is the only that readily comes to mind in the category, but :lol no hes just not, and i am not sure if hes even really a score-first PG tbh, i just cant think of too many

Hurr durr

Trae is already quitting on his team. Have a beef with teammates, playing lazy, showing that james harden attitude.

[Texas_Ranger]

Steve Nash cursed Trae.

[lefty]

Steve Nash cursed Trae.

:lol he has destroyed his career with 4 words
:lol sucks for Trae because Nash is his idol

Trae is trying to be like Steph but he’s more a Walmart James Harden

[Texas_Ranger]

Its clear as day that both Trae and Collins cant/want play together and both of them think they are better than they really are. A healthy Hawks team should be a playoff team.
