Ya he played solid defense. That was what most impressed me. I feel like his shot was awkward when he first started playing in the regular season too…once he got extended time and didn’t immediately get pulled, it started looking better. He’s got a better track record than anyone else on our bench at being able to hit shots. I’m kinda expecting that to come through if he gets consistent minutes.

Same. Very intrigued. Was it Ayton being a bitch on the bench?
You all are hilarious with your assumptions.

It was something unrepeatable that a fan said to Ayton from the stands.
What was my assumption? I think you have your quotes mixed up. Mine was "What was it? Was deleted."
Huh? I quoted AIG...?
Read your post. You quoted more than AIG. And as far as I know, AIG alone isn't referred to as "You all".
I was replying to AIG's post. The "you all" was mainly referring to other assumptions frequently made on this board, including about me.

According to that graph Ayton is the second worst player in the playoffs and Booker and Jokic are 1 & 2.
Yes, let's all go according to one graph. And ignore a chart like this:

I don’t need a graph. I watched the games. I am not sure whether he is confused or just lazy. I want him to play good. We all do. We NEED him to be Dominayton. Instead he’s Passiveayton

Jock is right. You people are disgusting.

He's been more consistent this postseason than Anthony Davis.

He had a decent game in Game 2 which is what we expect at the least. Come on, Jeremy. Davis has been huge for the Lakers. Horrible comparison.

Davis has literally been "every other game." Where have you been?

You're not going to get 25-35 point nights from him like AD when he's playing behind KD and Book.

People would love Ayton to grow a conscience overnight and say, hey, I'm a big sob and I can give Jokivic as good as he's giving it....NOBODY would f'ing complain to see that...he could score zero f'ing points if Jokivic's scoring and boards were down, his up, and he got half a dozen FTs. I bet he could get not a single point other than off FTs, let's say a half dozen, and if he out boarded J and held his FG% down, we win. Of course, don't see that happening...as that takes passion...which he hasn't shown...the only passion he's shown is being pissed cause he got benched, vs any passion about WHY he got benched..or losing...
