Ayton got hit with more contact than Giannis did yet Giannis is the one that gets to the free-throw line

Ayton needs to pull his head out of his rear.

Ayton hit again and the dumb **** announcers are calling it great defense

And that is not a jump ball

Ayton needs to stuff that ball with malice.

This is the problem we’ve complained about all year with Ayton avoiding contact. Unless it’s a clear path he goes soft instead of drawing contact

I hope they can fire Ayton up at the half. If he was playing with the aggression from virtually any previous playoff game we'd be running away with it right now.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s been coached to do whatever possible to stay out of foul trouble… Could be impacting his aggression. That should change in the second half since he doesn’t have even one foul yet!
