Is this the narrative you are going to concentrate on? We just beat the defending champs in the playoffs!
No, but when people keep responding to my posts arguing, what am I supposed to do? It would’ve been done if you hadn’t just jumped in to criticize, right?

We missed 36 shots. He couldn’t grab a single offensive board? 11 other guys in this game could.

I don't remember how consistently he ran back to get set on defense, but if he was doing that consistently instead of crashing the offensive glass, that's a strategic trade-off that can be the right decision depending on the circumstances.

My disappointment with Ayton in this game was that he didn't show up defensively. He was caught napping a lot of the time and got at least two of his three (!) total rebounds in the opening minutes. Gasol played only 18 minutes, so what was Ayton doing so far from the basket the rest of the time?
