Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young officially introduced himself as a playoff villain in his postseason debut last weekend. After hitting a go-ahead floater with under one second left in Game 1 against the Knicks, he silenced the Madison Square Garden crowd in New York, bringing back memories of when Reggie Miller gestured to Spike Lee with the “choke” sign after the Pacers guard scored eight points in nine seconds in 1995 to pull off one of the most improbable comebacks in NBA playoff history.
Knicks fans responded in Game 2 by coming together and… encouraging everyone to start a “Trae is balding” chant, which, sure, I guess.
