Ayton needs to learn how to do the pick and roll. He's so slow to roll that Paul can't get it to him

Well, the main complaint about Ayton not shooting and always passing in the case so far, but of course he isn't shooting as well as usual, so perhaps that will be the primary complaint tonight.

I thought the primary complaint is the soft ass jumpers he takes

Starters have had these stagnent stretches to open games before, bring in the bench.

Not sure what's up with Ayton on offense this season.

He is shooting one step away from his comfort zone. That's the problem.

Don’t agree with keeping Booker out there. He always picks up the 3rd foul.

One of my biggest worries about this game is Booker taking it like a 1 on 1 battle vs Beal

Robin Lopez has 3 offensive rebounds against Ayton.

Love Carter on defense but he's an offense killer at times. When he should shoot the 3, he holds it, does some dribble move and passes it back., effectively resetting the offense
