I don't understand why. It's just so easy to NOT OPEN THE THREAD. But I'm really glad I have some place to shit on Ayton, even more so now that he's on the Lakers. Every single single game he'll have and the Lakers lose because he was the last one to get back on defense will be cathartic for me.

He sucks. We potentially have 2 better centers, maybe even 3. Let's close this book and leave it shut.

I hope he has a phenomenal contract year. I'm talking 25/10 kind of year. Then the Lakers will have no choice but to extend his sorry ass and get stuck.

It’s not looking good so far. Ayton had a shit game opening night.

I thought his impact was about the same as Jaxson Hayes. So yeah, not a great start. Didn't catch the ball well, didn't really assert himself on either end of the floor. Made a couple of nice little midrange shots off of easy setups. It was like a lot of games that we saw his last couple of years in Phoenix. Just one game in a new situation, obviously, but no immediate evidence that he's changed.

Probably find him on Lakers forums somewhere telling everyone how Ayton is a better center than Kareem, Wilt, and Shaq.

Not sure what the reddit post was since it was removed but assume it was all about Aytons amazing Lakers performance. Couldn't be happier watching the two go down like the flaming turds that they are.

It is what it is. He used to sleepwalk to 18 and 10 when he had something to prove. He used to play hard for stretches when his coach and teammates held him to a high standard. Now all that's gone and he'll be 14/10-ish. Interested to see if they JJ or Luka/LeBron make a concerted effort to raise his effort and level of play.

Ayton has only reached 18/10 twice in career and just barely at that. He's a 14/10 guy who was carried by the players around him. He's trash.

Which is a shame as he could be a 25/15 guy if he had any dawg in him at all. But only in contract years. Sporadically.

Not sure if I've said it here or to friends in the past, but if you put Amare's heart and desire into Ayton's body and you have a perennial MVP candidate. What a shame.

It's not like there isn't 6 years of history to see who he is. Lakers always just sign big name dudes and expect them to be someone they are. Marcus Smart too, he is washed up, looks awful.

I shouldn't have laughed so hard at this as I did but it was audible to my wife in the living room.
