Greenshooter is correct. Ayton is very large and has a high skill level. As a sophmore he was considered the best HS player irregardless of class. i have seen him a few times over different years (I have seen him for at least 2 years so far) and have not been impressed with him. HIs effort has been terrible every game I have seen and i do mean terrible. He loafs so often on the court. I have waited and waited to see an effort that would strike fear into other players and i have yet to see that. In the EYBL Bamba (who is maybe 215 lbs) just controlled the game. SOmething you woudl think Ayton would do. Im not saying that he isnt a good prospect. Im just saying I want to see so much more from him than what i have seen.



It's not a great free agent class.  I wouldn't worry.  The top players certainly aren't signing there, and the quality falls off rather quickly.  Expect them to throw large offers at some restricted free agents again, like Otto Porter and KCP.  Maybe they could get Porter if Washington is too cheap to match.  But they're not suddenly going to have an influx in talent.

That's good to know.  Would love to be back in this position next year. It's fun having 2 favorite teams ... 1) C's 2) Whoever is playing the Nets.
