But who's counting?

Apparently we are for perpetuity.

Ayton revenge game on Tuesday. Predictions? 30 & 20? 5 dunks? 8-8 from the line?
I don’t think Nurk will punish Ayton that much. Maybe 25 and 12.

I'll go for 18 and 8

In his mind, that's 'Dominayting'.

Wild that you’re 7 feet and aren’t even averaging a block a game.
That’s no way to talk about Nurk.
Oh shoot. I got confused and thought I was in a thread that said All things Ayton. Weird.

He'll have 9 and 7 with 1 steal and 0 blocks... maybe 2 free throws, which is him being SUPER aggressive.

DA per 36: 11.8 FGA, .8 FTA, 14 pts, 12.6 reb, 1.6 ast, 1.7 stl, .9 blk, 2.3 tov

Nurk per 36: 10.6 FGA, 5.2 FTA, 13.9 pts, 11.7 reb, 5.7 ast, 1.6 stl, 1.2 blk, 2.7 tov

Hmm.

You forgot salaries. Nurkic can’t compete there.

I was gonna do salaries per 36, but it’s late and my brain can’t math right now.

I'm pretty disappointed with Ayton. Thought he'd come out with more offensive firepower. Nice to see that his defense has been all right, but that's for a center making half his salary.

And to add the other main part of the trade -

Allen per 36: 10.2 FGA, 1.2 FTA, 13.9 pts, 5.3 reb, 3.0 ast, 0.5 stl, 0.5 blk, 1.9 tov

2 for 1 on salary and team depth etc.

No competition.

Ayton and his series of invisible picks was #1 on Shaqtin’ A Fool tonight. They were also laughing at him for wearing pearls during pregame warm ups. The guy can’t catch a break.

Nicely done…. And most of it was in the first quarter, than portland decided he’d earned his max money and shut him down.

It was the Ayton game that we're all so familiar with. Nice production early on with a second half disappearance.

As for the Blazers performance with him on the court, well, they were pretty awful when their starters were out there. Grant did play pretty well in the second half, but it's easy to see why their record is so bad.

But did you have 4 assists for Ayton and 0 for Nurkic? :P

I thought he was very active on both ends, could have done better on the defensive boards but he was also defending a lot of shots (pretty sure he got the best of Booker the majority of the times he defended Book). Scoring wise, like most games I've watched of him this season, he was constantly getting open (or in deep sealing position) and calling for the ball, but they ignored him after the first quarter. He could have easily had 30+ points.

Another distinction people are also not making is that almost all of Nurkic's points came when Ayton was not defending him, while Ayton kept scoring on Nurkic.
