Deandre Ayton Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 106, Atlanta Hawks 102
Uh so first off uh just your your thoughts on your performance tonight and that of the team my performance is IR regular um I don’t know just playing hard man approaching the game the way I wanted to approach it and you know um every night’s a big night you know
Playing with these guys and getting to know him and you know just being out there with them and battling um that’s all I can say that’s what led to it to be honest do you feel like if like you’re fully unlocked now as far as like them
Being able to get the most out of you and you know the way that they you know you’re kind of used and off stuff yeah most definitely um I feel like I feel like um honestly um coming into these games you know I’m trying to I’m trying to do everything you know not
Also not only do my requirements my role for this team but do a lot more and and that’s why I’m at I’m more you know dominant people like to laugh at it but it’s the truth what do you think that is you think people I don’t
Know I don’t know I just be trying to bust that ass you’re putting up the numbers right now that’s about it it’s hard you can’t really I don’t know I listen and I hear it and I love it you know it’s um I thank these haters for it
You know cuz it’s it’s making me approach this game in the right way and carry the PDX on my back all the way so I thank them I’m wearing the cape all the way was that always how you looked at that at that type of stuff in that
Chatter or is that something you come to yeah that’s why there the reason why I’m in the position I am now in my career you know me trying to prove myself every day and I I go through the extends of it you know whether I look like the bad guy
Or not I’m trying to be great I’m trying to be a winner in this league I’m trying to be known as that guy you around me you going to you know what I’m saying we going to learn how to win where do you feel like your relationship with Aunt is
Developing now in the picking R right now it’s pretty lit I ain’t going to lie I wish he was here it’s pretty lit right now um uh you know we watch film together and we talk a lot and we you know we do our little Whispers and our
Little onew punch talks and stuff you know we want he’s number one and I’m Number Two so that’s kind of fire right there here we wasn’t even trying but back to the topic but yeah just you know in the pick and roll just you know feeling him out you know I’ve been
Playing against ant for quite some time since we’ve been in the league and I know his game a lot but you know I also playing with dbook back in Phoenix I’m similar to his style of play setting screens and knowing what he want sometimes he want to be off the ball
Sometimes he want to be you know on the ball being a ball dominant I’m just reading him whether he wants me in the pocket or not and everything’s flowing you know we we have this little language going on where it’s like our body language like you know I contact and
Things like that where we know how the defense know what the defense is giving us and it’s like music it’s just you know it’s just just good chemistry going on is just making good music he knows what I want I know what he want what you think of the getting that rebound there
The I just told I thank him I said him and T I said I told T I said thank you for blocking and made in the game for us I told Tani thank you for saving the game cuz that’s playoff wins I’ve lost games like that because of rebounds like
That people not blocking out and crunch time and things like that you know um I was very critical and you know to my hats off to to man just locking in and being focused man being focused the whole time Chris Murray guarding the best players out there doing what he’s
Supposed to do all them sacrifices let to me and ant’s performan and on the other end and just you know got us in flow to win the game

Ayton is weird af and says weird af things and he definitely doesn't think about things the way most people do. But keep getting those rebounds, keep hitting those midranges, keep catching passes in the lane, keep being engaging and enjoy your time with this team and its all good. This is a great situation right now for everyone involved. Keep it up. Great things coming for the Trail Blazers and Deyandre Ayton.
Has a good month and all of a sudden he starts actin like heβs Jordan. Prove that you can hustle like this on a nightly basis
My performance is irregulaaaaar
DA is what Greg Obust shouldve been. This man should be a lifetime Blazer.
Getting him 18 or more Shots a game should be a priority.
Love it keep it up
Da is funny lol
Why did it take so long for him to start playing like this??? They traded for you so you could be dominant not let Simons, Scoot, Sharpe and Grant Chuck up 30 shots whenever they feel like it π
