Could be any number of things. We all know he has the talent and capability to do these types of things but I think it boils down to either a)he got paid and now he doesn’t care as much or b)he truly doesn’t give a single fuck about the regular season anymore. Either way it’s all internal and up to DA to fix it.
And this is why we gotta keep DA
He always said his goal was to get that second contract. Now that he has he must not have any goals
Nothing. He’s averaging over 17 ppg & 10 rpg while shooting close to 60% he is getting to the FT line more than he has at any point in his career. But he doesn’t dunk enough so a bunch of ignorant morons hate him.
Literally nothing has changed he turned it up in the playoffs, it’s actually a good thing that he’s able to do that. Yes it would be better if he was that all the time but people need to accept he’s a flawed player and that when we’re healthy that’s okay because he steps up when it matters
He got paid
Employees don’t perform as well when they don’t want to work there, generally. That’s all I got to say.
Dude is getting rhythm back right now.
More broadly, his touch around hoop does seem to have changed this year.
He got his second contract.
I think it literally comes down to he only cares during the playoffs, which if he plays that way in the playoffs every year, I’d say he’s worth keeping around
He got paid
What’s changed is that we aren’t in the playoffs! We’ve been telling everybody Ayton in the playoffs is a different animal but people keep bitching about the regular season. We saw regular season doesn’t matter that much, unless y’all dying for the new regular season champ trophy.
He’s shooting more from 3-10 than 0-3 = 80% vs 50%. His best year he was shooting 72 vs 40, he took 46% of his shots that year from 0-3ft compared to this years 30%, hes slowly moving further away from the basket each year since his second year.
In the words of Johnny Kemp, “Just got paid, Friday night”
Its because CP3/Suns would pick the shots DA would take by making the right play. Now DA demands the ball and jacks a 3 with 20 seconds left on the shot clock. Hes not as good as he thinks he is and thats the problem.
Can someone have Charles & Shaq call out DA, and light a fire under him, like they did Joel Embiid years ago?
Dude got his max contract. That was literally his biggest goal. Now that he’s got it, he’s back to playing NBA2k until 3am.
