I'd also argue that Trae Young is more of a star in name than in production.

He was a huge name coming out of college and has the highlight gene where he can hit the Curry-range 3's, so that gives him some clout in the highlight packages on TV and social media... but unlike prime Curry, there are inefficiencies in his 3pt game. He's shown that he's not a #1 on a contender and, while we have no idea if he can be a #2 on a contender, his current tendencies say probably not.

27 and 10 since his rookie year

Without looking, I'd guess there are exactly 0 players in the NBA who have averaged at least 27ppg and 10apg over the past 5 seasons.

The production is there, man.

Who is the guy you're thinking we can trade for that is? Garland and Murray seem to be the next best 2 players. The book is closed on either of them being a #2 on a title team, so who is the guy we're going to get that is a legit #2 then?
