Deandre Ayton is so confounding to me.
Why does he play like Andrea Bargnani on offense?

Lol, open runs with NBA players? Cause they're trying against J Cole right? Come on dude, this is a joke.

CJ+ everything the Blazers own would be able to get a decent second tier star in the right situation (if a star wants to pull an AD/Russ)
Otherwise, either trade Dame or build up what they have

Allergic to the free throw line and tad too much jump shooting for a guy with his physical tools. Probably not even that good of a shooter either.

Lol he’s a 55% percent shooter. He does not take that many jump shots. He has the last couple games. I think he meant shooting 3s as he has the past few. He has attempted 13 now in his whole career now haha
He does need to get to the line more for sure and he is definitely an enigma at this stage of his career but the comparison was a major stretch.

I think Ayton has the mechanics to stretch out to the 3pt line. Good FT shooter for a big. He should be destroying people in the paint though. Just don't think he has that killer instinct.

Rockets being out rebounded is going to be a nightly thing, y’all gone act shocked every time y’all see the numbers? Lol
Bucks were plus 29 on the boards and still loss.
harden and Russ never got in rhythm plus blazers pretty much needed to win that game
Lakers Tomorrow

I don't think anybody is shocked. We been seeing this from them for years. That's why people been saying their window is closed.

Nah. The team is clearly rusty. They need to get back close to where they left off and perhaps improve conditioning.

If Russ is going to play bad, and Harden not much better, they aren't going to beat good teams. Easy as that. Rebounding differential is irrelevant with their style of play.

Once Deandre Ayton gets healthy, he needs to tweak his offensive game
Ayton is focused on the mid-range game, but he really needs to work inside-out and outside-in, not middle-in

Zion Williamson posts shot chart Phoenix Suns fans hope Deandre Ayton would
Phoenix Suns fans are used to bemoaning over Luka Doncic. However, now that Zion Williamson is healthy, is another young player to compare Deandre Ayton to.
*shrug*
The Bargnani comp was hyperbole.

What do you feel gives THIS rockets team a better chance at winning? Both LA teams are clearly better, Morey had to try something or they would be blazers south
bucks were literally leaving the shooters open to not allow any layups. Nothing was being forced, in that game I was fine was it. You want guys 6’7 and under trying to score in the paint on Giannis and Brook Lopez?

Yeah Ayton has taken 3 free throws in 3 games. That’s awful

As a rocket fan, I hate the small ball lineup and the inability at grabbing any offensive boards. That’s what’s going to hurt the rockets the most - allowing good teams 2nd and 3rd chances because you can’t grab a board is going to kill them.

He's young and still working on his game...I think he'll be fine. He's averaging 19 and 12 so he is quite productive. I think the suspension and a lot of people expecting him to go KAT right off the bat has it twisted. He is still playing pretty well and he's playing pretty efficiently.Once Deandre Ayton gets healthy, he needs to tweak his offensive game

I mean I get it, because they have a very flawed team they gotta do what works. The problem is how they're constructed and they're bad at adjustments. They have no plan B. Morrey ain't as smart as he thought at putting a team together.

Yeah, he seems like a smart player and knows that the post up game is dying, I think he has the right attitude and good work ethic, he will continually improve.

Very bad idea. They have played 3 games in 4.5 months. The playoffs are like next week or something, intentionally having them miss even more time than they already have is not ideal.
I don’t even agree with limiting their minutes but they would be better than sitting them

It depends on if there's a disgruntled star. If Derozan can get you Kawhi, then CJ can get you a star as well, you just need to wait for the right time and the right opportunity.
