Ayo making his debut today. Watched some of it on my lunch break. He is playing off the ball. First game jitters I think.
Kind of rough. Made a couple shots- one on a nice drive where he got by his man in halfcourt, another on midrange jumper off of a little crossover. Couple pretty bad TO's.
He dribbles way too high. This isn't Morgan Park gym class. Got stripped pretty easy on one take.
Had a one take to the hole where he hit the bottom of the basket. Getting beaten off the dribble pretty easy.

Devin Dotson (on a two way from last year) looks like a player who can contribute now. He is playing PG and having huge game.
Patrick Williams looks good.

I am sure Ayo will get better- but it's a different game. He looks like just a guy today.

Spot on and my thoughts exactly. Thanks for typing that all out for me 😂

Patrick Williams looks like he’s got a very bright future. Also Simonovic looks like he’s gonna fill in nicely for Markkanen.

Trey Murphy looks like a baller for the Pelicans.

Ayo definitely getting exposed by his lack of athleticism.

Thanks for the update.  It's nice to read a post that's not all about the poster sucking his own dick and patting himself on the back.

LOL.

Well, that does remind me of the old joke "Why does a dog lick his balls?"
"Because he can."

All reasonable, but I think there’s a real possibility Ayo is just one of those guys who could be much better at 25 than he is at 21. I could definitely be wrong, but I think he’ll carve out a useful career as a Swiss-army knife bench player.

One “I had a feeling” post and this clown makes a federal case out of it. This thread would look entirely different, and that comment would have faded away quietly if you didn’t feel the need to act like a child.

Just throw the “I had a feeling Ayo would land with the Bulls” on the Theus/Romar pile.

Oh, you think I'm only talking about this thread? Lol, every post you make is about you sucking your own dick.

Carry on, tho.

Why are you so obsessed with dick sucking? I mostly posted that Scott Drew thread to annoy you. Easily triggered…

It's not true, tho.

It was largely to annoy you and watch you react to it. Contrary to popular board opinion, I’m fairly self-aware. I know my role here, and I do it pretty well *pats self on back*

But I also just wanted to say that Baylor looks like they’re going to smash for awhile. Pretty impressive what Drew has cooking down there. It’s not KU or Kentucky.

He does most things OK if you want to call that a Swiss army knife, but he doesn't do anything really well right now at this level. He could maybe break in a rotation with a lot more skills.
The biggest limiter is he is not quite a plus athlete at the NBA level and you can't teach that. 
Guys that bounce around and then become rotation or starter guys like Beverley or Nunn are simply a lot better athletes.

All fair. I will say I heard someone on the radio last spring sell me on Ayo being a productive pro (honestly don’t recall who). Gets better every year, decent size, works hard, and has the clutch gene. That’s worth a 2nd round flyer.

Maybe you could define what that role is in your view.
