Perk..come closer to spell something to your f..ing ear: Ayton and the word "enforcer" HAVE NEVER MET! NEVERRRRRR!! I D I O T!
Ayton haven't developed post game and quick turn around low post for scoring.
Best ability is availability!
I had to skip through perk talking in the beginning.
Can y’all tell perk it’s pronounced re pre zen tay shun(representation) 6:22
Lakers way to talented to be struggling💯
LA Giannis 🙌🏆💜💛🤯
NBA is JOKE😂😂😂😂 MY GOD!
He's been a bust 🥱
Maybe perk shouldn’t mention Ciroc, I think about Diddy when I hear Ciroc
Dude has no heart or hassle Ayton I ain’t think he will change
Gurl why yo eyebrows dancin
her eyebrows are distracting
perk making these comments sounds like as if hes an all-timer lol. yeah, he should have changed his mindset too to be not on shaqtin a fool legend 😁
The fact that some joke capella is dumb. If he retired today it’s with 12 and 10 and 1.4 blocks. Dang good center. Not a star but better career than the average center.
Goin to the lakers to kill ur career, aw yes we seen this movie a few times
D A corn rolls look like weave
Lakers management is dumb sucks. Trade ayton, lebron or wave em both. Fire jj redick.
These Schmucks would get demolished by the 71’ Bucks. Go Kareem & the Big O forget these schmoes. 🥱
Not the ciroc statement. Lol
