I hope one day I get insulted to the tune of 4-years, $133M.

While not living up to your potential after 4 years.

I think it is a lot more about management of existing resources.

Did anyone else notice that Monty didn't say one word to Ayton? They CLEARLY hate each other!

Edit: Arg! 'Bone beat me to it!

I’m sure I’m overreacting, but every time they show Ayton in these videos, his dribbling looks totally mechanical and all of his moves are away from contact.

So he looks the same as he always has?

It would be an overreaction to assume all of that would change over the span of a few months.

He’s not going to develop skills that quickly, but we need to see him aggressively trying to do it in games. I also think the ship has sailed when it comes to drawing contact from defenders.

How are these moves away from contact? Just because there weren't any defenders on the court? :roll:

They've been posting them for a few days. Watch all of the ones where he's going 1-on-1 against Mark Bryant or the other bigs. It's all finesse stuff and fadeaways. Never trying to put a guy into the basket after a pump-fake.

Those first ones from Wednesday are bound to draw contact.
