You know the vibes
Love this guy.
Great stuff.
Ah thanks OP I was waiting to see another post about Ayton because the other night I was watching the Lakers with my girlfriend and I tell her as a joke that we should make a little challenge.
Every time Ayton gets a rebound she has to say something she finds attractive about him.
I thought it would be funny and maybe feed my macho ego a little.
Brother that ego evaporated fast 🤣 And that also happened in the 1st half vs the spurs!
At first she goes yeah he is tall. Normal. Whatever. Then a minute later she goes wow his shoulders though.
Then she adds his hands look strong in a way that made me put my chips down because suddenly they tasted like insecurity.
By the third quarter she is leaning forward talking about his presence and how he moves and I start feeling weirdly warm. Not jealous warm. More like confused warm. Like I suddenly became very aware of how Ayton also has nice shoulders and maybe I should hit the gym or maybe I should examine my entire identity.
At one point she says if I saw him in real life I would probably stare and I swear I caught myself staring too and thinking yeah honestly same.
The game ended and she asked if I was ok and I said yeah yeah of course I am fine I am a strong confident heterosexual man while Googling Ayton highlights in another tab like a man trying to understand his own spirit animal.
And the twist is that the next morning she texts me saying she dreamed that I got dunked by Ayton and he told me nice form and I woke up feeling proud and strangely disappointed that it was not real… because man.. I really , secretly want to get bodied by him.
The entire DA experience has been great.
We know it is a contract year for him, but if he is able to stay this way I’d keep him long term. I don’t think he is a max player, but can be paid like a fringe star.
Lebron legit the funniest man on the team
For those that said DA is a cancer any team and lazy on the court…DA has clearly found new energy and life in the Lakers.
An absolutely steal of a pickup for the Lakers at $8 million per year.
I’m loving the vibes on this team but damn can they play better? The net rating leave much to be desired. They win less points, they lose big.
