Whats the cap situation looking like for next year with LBJ gone?
Luka and Reaves saved this man’s career 🙏🏾
A vintage Chris Broussard lol
Hear me out before you judge me.
I am about to say something that will haunt your notifications.
Ayton my fault for real. Back then the Bahamas only meant Aaliyah to me. Just the sunshine the ocean and that one RnB angel on loop. But now you showed up and flipped my whole emotional GPU.
And the way your hands move man that soft touch got my brain loading erotic DLCs I never even bought. It is wild.
You mean the world to me fr. Whole universe pack planets galaxies bonus levels of feelings I did not know existed. You unlocked all of that with one soft touch.
Yeah 5 🔥
Man.. he can stay if he keeps playing this well
Ayton one the funniest mfs in the league lmfaooo
It shows.
YEAH 5!!!!!
The fact we may not be able to reaign him bumbs me out man, he looks better every game and seems so passionate. I kept my expectations low because of how much portland fans disliked him, i think its clear now that he needed change and he seems to be flourishing.
Contract year special 😂
Truly wishing him a good year he really can thrive with our three or four, including marcus smart with reaves bron luka, guna be fun to watch, 20/10 game tonight, solid solid solid
It’s hilarious how the narrative changes with him. He’s basically been the same guy his whole career but is now just on a bargain contract.
Luka, AR and bron gonna get this man paid
He’s excited for that $25m/year next year.
Crazy how he went from a max contract to 8 million this season
Can we keep him long term?
I think we really are the ideal fit for him. In any given possession he could be the second to fourth option, and all he needs to do is (1) finish at the rim, (2) do a short hop floater or middie, or (3) pass it out to the wing or corner. Is he theoretically being underutilized? If he were more ambitious could he rack up higher numbers? Yes and yes. I don’t think the Suns or the Blazers were necessarily wrong to want him to play bigger roles.
Yet this is the role he’s comfortable with, and this is the role we need him to excel at (which he has). The only “problem” we have is how much we gotta pay him beyond this season, but I prefer this problem over the void we had last season a thousand times.
I love Deandre Ayton man
ONE OF US
Really loving Ayton’s production and the team finally learning how to play with him. I need Bron now, let’s see how good this team is, I know we still need a piece or 2 but this is the best I feel about the team since 2020
Damn it becomes more and more apparent Monty set this man back so bad
Best center we got since Bynum and Howard. AD aint a 5 to me
