Trae Young isn’t an idiot.

He knows the Atlanta Hawks never had a chance in hell at winning an NBA title this year.

He did just job.

It’s not his fault the Hawks haven’t found a way to surround him with better players.

Making a run in the playoffs would never result in a championship for him.

It would only be extending how long he has to keep showing up for work.

But that’s simply not true.

Work is always work the moment it becomes a job.

Trae Young doesn’t want to have to keep going to work.

He wants to be able to do shit he actually enjoys doing.

You think it’s any coincidence that he literally just dropped his new signature paddle with Paddletek?

The Hawks were in Orlando last night.

There’s a lot of really high level pickleball being played in Florida.

I’m sure there are a few facilities that were open after the game ended.

Can’t blame him one bit.

You show up cold, but you don’t want to waste everyone’s time warming up.

Can’t be having that.
