Using "kindergarten" wins to devalue "gladiator arena" losses is data fraud.
If the Front Office trades Trae based on this statistical mirage, it will haunt the franchise for years. 🦅

The Hawks Front Office is falling for a statistical trap. 🚨
Trading Trae Young based on the "team wins more without him" stat would be a historic mistake. 📉
A deep dive into the Strength of Schedule and Lineup Availability reveals the truth. 🧵👇
2️⃣ The Porzingis Factor
People ignore that in 75% of Trae's losses, he was missing his best running mate, Kristaps Porzingis. But in the games the team won without Trae? KP played in 67% of them.
Context matters. Availability matters.
@TheTraeYoung Trae, the Hawks need you. The fans need you. The box office needs you. Trust in yourself—we always have your back. Go out there and be aggressive!
