    We really need more of this content right now

  2. DA has an amazing opportunity to rehab his image and reputation in Portland. He’s in a helluva place to succeed with Ant and Scoot.

    He really wanted out of Phoenix. Can’t wait to see a full season of scoot ayton pick and rolls

  4. Beyond excited to see this young roster run the floor! DeAndre is a gazelle like LaMarcus was and you know Scoot+Shaedon are gonna push the ball.

    They ain’t even bother to fly jrue in 😭 yeah his ass is gone soon.

  6. I’m probably just a fool falling for PR, but it’s nice to see some excitement to be here

    In the immortal words of Mike G Rich, this brings me joy!

    Dude was sooooo tired of being in Phoenix and it showed lol

  10. I really think Ayton will thrive here. He loves to face up and shoot jumpers but he has very solid touch. Thing is, when you are playing with CP3/Booker/KD who are all All Time great mid-range jump shooters, Ayton had to turn into a dirty work Capela type of big. Which isn’t his game, which is why PHX went with Bismack/Landale because they knew their role. Obviously Ayton could have put the team first and tried to adjust his game, but as the #1 pick he probably just wanted more support and wanted to further develop.

    Now we have Scoot and Simons who run a ton of PnR and are both threats to shoot and drive, then that will open up a ton for Ayton. Plus, Chauncey had experience with needing to pander to Nurks attitude so there shouldn’t be an issue to make sure Ayton gets his touches to stay engaged.

    I honestly think there is a chance that Ayton can resemble some Lamarcus Aldridge here…
