Am I the only one who wants more? The dude has improved and the box scores look great, but Ayton could be so much better! It’s easy for me to say as a fan and I don’t have to fight Zubac for 41 minutes. But man I get so frustrated when he doesn’t box out or fight on every play. He was boxed out by Jackson a couple plays and Zubac consistently beats him up the court.
Ayton can do better. He could have had a 30x30 game in a blowout last night if he would have played with a little more passion, heart and fierce competitiveness. If you could put Bookers heart and alpha mentality into Ayton, he may be the best center ever!
I’ve said it before, Ayton is very young at 22 and he is growing up before our eyes. He could still be one of the greats, but he has to leave it ALL on the Floor EVERY night! He is STILL not playing to his potential. This should scare the rest of the league... and makes me giddy when I think how GOOD he will be!
Ayton was bad in Game 3, and a key reason we lost. He played like an agile 7 foot #1 draft pick pick in Game 4. We need to see Game 4 performances consistently! Game 4 is Aytons floor... not his ceiling.
You’ve come a long way BIG GUY... and if you’ve come this far, maybe you’re willing to come a little further? You remember the name of the town, don’t you? I could use a good man to help get my project on wheels.

Lol. Lame post.
20/20/5 isn't good enough for some fans.
