What a clueless idiot. How does he not get embarrassed by being cut with a 30 million dollar salary. A team has to really hate you to do that.
They wanted to get rid of you so bad they just payed out 25 million to move on. Jeebus the lack of humility and delusion is still strong with this guy.

I really hope Ayton goes to LA.

He'd tank that team. Ayton who cannot take responsibility, and Luka, who cannot take responsibility, would despise each other within 2 months.

But, I think the word might be out on Ayton... all the skill in the world but he's a immature and has no passion. He's Andrew Bynum, only minus the cheap shots... because you can't get Ayton fired up enough to deliver a cheap shot. Hell, Bynum probably only gave em out because he was trying to impress Metta World War.

Just a guess but Ayton ends up in Milwaukee. He can finally be a "star", lopez is gone, dame is out.

And why would the myth have formed?

I wanted to keep him before I knew that he's hardly any taller than Grayson Allen.
Because he is known to go guard power forwards in the post. I guess people value that he doesn't completely get slaughtered on the post despite his lack of size, and overlook all the rest of his bad D.

He didn't shrink, he has always been 6'4. Some would say I have an irrational dislike of Royce, and they may be right. It just irritates me that his whole game sucks other than the occasional 3 point shooting hot streak, and people overlook everything else about his game due to those streaks.

I just get pissed beyond belief when I see an NBA player that misses half of their layup attempts. That is why I also irrationally hate Nurkic.

The Lakers are rumored to be pursing him. If the Lakers think they had frustration with Andrew Bynum and his inconsistency? Oh...just wait.

Milwaukee waiving Lillard to sign Turner is crazy. 113M stretched over 5 years = 22M per year dead cap, + 26.75M for Turner's deal.

Damn, Millwaukee is screwing themselves just as badly as us. Isn't going to work either, Giannis is going to leave.

I don't get it really. Turner is not going to change much of anything.

Blazers will pay Ayton 25M to step away.

Bucks will pay Turner 25M to acquire him.

To think these two were linked to each other when we could have traded for Turner.

Finally. An NBA team that has the guts to do what they need to do with an aging injured player.
Guts?

How is taking on dead cap guts? I have my doubts about Dame ever getting back to form but ruining the teams cap situation for Myles Turner is not guts, it's stupid.

We don't really know if that was actually true.

ouch


But in the end, they couldn’t live with his bad ways. The tardiness to team flights and practices, according to a team source. The skipping of rehabilitation appointments. Fans saw him slam chairs when he was taken out of games. And a team source said there were tantrums in the locker room when he was sidelined for poor effort.

Ah - the Deandre we all grew to loathe
