On a scale of 1-10, I'd say KG was around a 6.5-7 when it came to physical aggression.

He was off the charts when it came to talking shyt/being confrontational, tho.That's why

he'll always be somewhat of an enigma to me.Intense focus/energy, but the physicality never

matched/fully aligned with his aggressive personality imo.At least he showed some ferocity/

intensity, tho.I don't know if it was to mask his insecurities of feeling physically frail out there on

the court?..but at least he had it.Ayton has none of that.He comes off soft, bland, and dull.Like he's

just going through the motions 90% of the time.On a scale of physical aggression, I'd give Ayton

like a 2 or 3 out of 10 right now.If Ayton embraced the physicality of the game, he could probably be

a top 10 player in the league RIGHT NOW.At the age of 20-21 yrs old.I haven't seen that competitive edge

kick in, tho.KG may have had a finesse skill set, but he was ultra competitive.He'd tried to kill you with

finesse.Ayton's not trying to kill shyt.Hopefully it's just laying dormant & will awaken soon.He's crazy

skilled & nimble for a big man.

Ayton has shown flashes that he can be dominant.

1. The problem is he is young so he will be inconsistent. That will change as he is getting more experience. His defense has improved a lot already.
2. The Suns are not using him correctly. Some games they get Ayton involved in the offense early and then they just stop passing him the ball.
3. Spacing is bad. James Jones tried to fix the shooting issues but its still a major problem.
4. Management really sucks. Which is why I'm not confident James Jones/Robert Sarver can build a competitive team around Booker and Ayton.

The impersonations of Gary Payton and Perk especially are so on point. :russ:

The players are so neutered/sheltered/sensitive these days, you don't get personalities like GP/KG anymore.
Most of the current players didnt come from poverty
Which is a good thing.
