He’s regressed to being the worst Center in the west. I’m just glad we got some useful pieces for him when we did.
Holmgren, Wemby, Lively have all zipped by him.
Yeah, in hindsight it’s a much better trade than it felt like at the time. It’s a nice surprise that Nurk has been so solid and available.

Not at all surprising that Ayton can't consistently keep his head in the game, he's only been that way for his entire career.

Your statement of 10% of the time was soooooooo off SunsRit!

90 games out of 100 here in Phoenix he was clueless and unengaged.
You all really expect me to take you seriously with absurd claims like this thrown around?
Prove me wrong. Oh wait you can’t because it’s true.
It’s extremely easy to prove you wrong, just using last season (his least engaged season of all according to the Hayters), and we don’t even have to look at 100 games, to see that your “10 out of 100” claim is false. Ayton played 67 games last season, and he scored 25 or more points in 13 of those games, with between 10 to 21 rebounds in 11 of those 13.

If he can do that while being “clueless and unengaged” then he’s a better player than I’ve ever given him credit for.

Obviously those type of outputs don’t just magically happen from an “unengaged” player, and he was very engaged for many more games than just those.

But the claim of 10 out of every 100 games was so absurd on the face of it that I shouldn’t have needed to prove it wrong.
So you’re happy that he was engaged 20% of the time he was on the court?? No wonder your so pleased with his production, you’re happy with mediocre(at best) engagement.
I already anticipated that (illogical) comeback, but you both seem to have missed it: “… and he was very engaged for many more games than just those.”

Remember how y’all used to say that it wasn’t about the points or even his stats? He was engaged on many occasions where he scored fewer than 25 points, come on guys. That’s not the standard, it was just my proof that he had to have been engaged on (at least) those nights in order to achieve 25/10.

Well congratulations, you’re blocked by me now. It’s like arguing with a 4 year old. Same stupid shit time after time. Ayton sucks. Now more than ever. I don’t need to read your drivel anymore.

Ayton had a big 8 and 8 today against the Warriors imposing front line. Oh, not impressed? Perhaps you're being a simpleton and just using regular stats instead of per-36 (where he was at 8.7 and 8.7). So, in your face, dummy.

Rookie Trayce Jackson-Davis was much better than Ayton tonight.

His stats were Ayton-8. He lived up to his nickname, Aytonayton.

Why do I and a couple others get scolded for being direct with Jeremy, but everyone else can just take their passive aggressive shots, sarcastic shots. It's weird.

Sorry, my post went too far. I think a little back-and-forth is okay, even some joking or ball-busting. Jeremy can also do the same to us if Ayton has a particularly good game etc. But my post was a bit too snarky, so I deleted it.

Jeremy can be quite animated about his love for Ayton too. :P
