    Good point, yeah if Ayton was only making 10 million a year or Simons/Grant were gone I'd probably be fine with him here.

    He seems to avoid contact. Why else would he get so few FTS?

    Why this team is not fully committed to its youth is something that boggles my mind.

    Ayton on that fast break was like watching Aminu in his prime.

    Out of control on offense and terrible rebounding on defense.

    Lots of offensive rebounds this season with all the 3-point shooting. have to be ready for that.

    So hard to believe that the team that is winning by an average of 17.5 ppg this year is winning.

    Make it make sense...

    Since Portland was up 68-65, the Thunder have gone on a 41-17 run.
