In what year does All Things Ayton drop off the first page of the site?

Post by Superbone »

In what year does All Things Ayton drop off the first page of the site? In other words, when do we get tired of talking about our former first #1 overall draft pick enough that it drops off to page 2 for the first time? Next year? The year after? Never for all of eternity? Right now it feels like the latter (or ladder as one would say). But I have to believe we'll lose interest at some point. Maybe we'll always keep tabs on him. Joe Johnson is out of the league but it doesn't stop his name from coming up once in a while but probably pages deep.

I will leave this open for seven days and then lock it so it will exit gracefully.

The ghost will haunt this forum longer than he was actually here.
Jones and Vogel out, Lue or Lee in, draft Grant Nelson or Tyler Kolek.

Without a mod closing it, never…. I know one guy who’ll keep it alive by himself.

So this theoretical person :P will be posting Ayton stats after each of his games in 2027?

The All Things who thread? My center is Jusuf DomiNurkic. He just put up 20-16-8 last night and is averaging 4 FTs and 5 assists a game.

But Ayton had a double double last night and if they kept passing him the ball he would’ve carried them to a win in OT.

I didn’t vote, because I think it could be 2023 and you don’t have that as an option. The first page only goes back 2 weeks right now. I mainly post in there when other people do.

Duly noted. However, there is NO WAY that happens in the next month and a half. There's a reason that choice doesn't exist. I will buy you dinner next time I'm within distance to you if so.

Fine. I'll go with 2024. Certainly there's no reason to discuss him between the season and the Olympic qualifiers.

Till we get our first title. There won't be any what-if left since we'll obviously have taken the right road. Till then...

It’s got to be natural, man. No making of extra threads. No teaming up. No tampering.

I'm surprised you didn't include 2023. But I wouldn't have voted for that. (I voted for 2024. I think sometime during the coming season or maybe offseason the thread will die down.)

I voted “never” just because I thought it’s funny…. Just praying this team turns the corner and will actually have a full roster for more than 3-4 games this season. If we get healthy, stay healthy and go on a run…. Ayton threads becomes a quick after thought.

:D Wow, it happened! I was the next closest with 2025. The funny thing is it didn’t happen until I locked it and then it was reopened the next day. Saucy didn’t do his part in keeping it alive. :P

I’d argue that locking it kills it anyway and put a bad taste about ANY participation in that thread. It was a good place to vent and it was ruined.
