If we're being literal, our Big 3 are Nurk, KD... and Plum.

BTW, if KD is one of your three biggest players, that’s a problem. Especially when one of the other two can’t even get off the bench.

I mean, he's always whining and moping almost every single time you see him on the court. I figured he'd be a Grade A bitch and do something like this.
Blazers fans warned us about his attitude problems, but everyone swore it would be fine and he would always give maximum effort and be fine with his role.

Now do Ayton. I'll wait. Also, let this battle die lol. They can both be ass and Allen is the best of the 3.

He was a good trooper last season, even if he sucked in the playoffs the effort was usually there.

You mean the guy who’s shooting 43.7% from the field this season? He’s a dime-a-dozen wing, nothing special.

The point is that Nurkic was supposed to be content with a small role, give maximum effort, with no complaining/moping. That was the whole reason given for trading Ayton.

We were set at center. But we destroyed ourselves, just like every other trade Ishbia has engineered.

I knew you’d chirp up.

We were not set at centre.

Ayton needed to go. We got a good return in the trade.
We still have the better end of the deal.

But it won’t matter what anyone says.
You still have your Ayton blinkers on and will never see past it.

LET. THIS. GO.

The whole reason Ayton was traded is because he sucked and could not be counted on to be worth a damn on any given day. We were not "set" at center. Ayton is a nickel-a-dozen center that isn't even wanted by the team that traded for him. And they suck worse than the Suns. Keep in mind, I was an Ayton apologist until close to the end when I realized he was trash and it wasn't going to change.

This is getting so damn old. Ayton was traded a year and a half ago. We don't want him. Now we don't want Nurk either and all we get from you is Ayton this and Nurk that. They both suck, but Nurk makes $12 million less per year and wasn't our one and only #1 pick. Stop it. You're right Allen wasn't the best part of the trade, but he was a very close second. The best part was getting rid of Ayton.

I guess I need to put you back on ignore.

Yes, Grazin' Allen is better than Deandre Ayton. And that's ok, there's lots of guys who only 18m per that are better than max guys. It happens.

One could argue that the franchise would be in a better position today if they traded Devin Booker and held on to Deandre Ayton.
