      Ayton was chosen no1 cuz he was good, but sometimes, being good aint enough, you have to strive to become better and better each game, and that demands dedication and effort, which Ayton clearly lacks. 16 and 10 aint bad, but for someone like Ayton, this is not the averages he should have. Centers like Brook Lopez and Jalen Duren put those numbers, which are good, for their standards. Ayton is supposed to be better than them, and he avg less than that. This is not acceptable for someone of his caliber

I was at UA while DA was there, and I keyed in on how poor of a defender he was for his combo of size and how gifted of an athlete he was. Don’t get me wrong, he improved as a defender with the Suns, but it was always clear that the passion just wasn’t there. You just can’t win the big one with guys like that.

      I feel like a lot of these high draft pick players basically spent from like 14 or 16 years old to 20 basically being told they are a star and knowing they will make the NBA. Therefore knowing they will be rich as F. Nowadays they only spend 1 year in college. The whole time often pampered and being covered and praised similarly to an NBA star with all the Media coverage. Even if they dont succeed in March Madness they often still are considered in the top 5 for the draft.
      I feel like a lot of this has led to massive egos and complacency on some of their part. They are naturally talented, and athletically superior to most of their competition until the NBA. Even a poor March Madbess they can convince themselves it was the team. Then they get to the NBA with the same mentality and same work ethic. Ayton for example gaming late until the night. It never hindered him before so he doesnt change. The NBA level is elite and u gotta work for it no matter what. LBJ is a crazy human specimen basically made for Basketball. Dude still spent so much time in the Gym honing his skills and improving physically. If u are convinced u will succeed purely bcuz u were told so and have so far up to that point done just that it's often a major wake up call. Some players recognize this and put in that work. Others let their Ego get in the way and blame everyone but themselves. Examples being Simmons and Ayton.
      Look at Giannis or Curry. Neither was believed to reach the level they have when they were teens and young adults. Giannis had to work hard as shit and coming from Greece was not given any special treatment. Instead he was doubted. Curry wasnt considered big or strong enough. Being just a 3 pt shooter specialist and nothing more. He took a small program in Davidson to what the Elite 8 or Final 4 (honestly forget) No one had been saying this kid is the future of the NBA. He put in the work though and reached an elite level.

    It’s time to say it, Deandre Ayton is a bust, I think we are entering a new age where basketball has been so streamlined and advanced that coasting has become a new normal for many younger players. We are getting so many guys who simply don’t care, gear and training regimes have improved so much to the point where guys who put little to no effort look stronger physically then guys who religiously worked on their bodies in the 90s. And while I love guaranteed contracts, they are another way for players like Ben Simmons and Ayton to slack off.

    If you go look at all of the scouting reports on Ayton back in 2018 leading up to the draft, all of his weaknesses were well documented and they are in full display for everyone to see.
    They said he takes plays off on defense which is painfully obvious, he was a poor shot blocker which he is, he settled for jumpshots instead of establishing good post position for better opportunities which he does, he did not have a nose for the ball which is still true.
    He needed to be drafted to a team with excellent player development coaches for bigs which the Suns do not have.
    The Suns made the huge mistake and are now paying for it.

  • @Kriptiko
    @Kriptiko 2 месяца назад +27

    As a former DA supporter and current Suns fan, I think the label "NBA's biggest disappointment" feels unfair. Yes his last 2 years with the Suns were HELL as a fan given his inconsistent production and questionable level of buy-in, but if we're being real with ourselves, he's not a bigger disappointment than Ben Simmons, Anthony Bennett, Marvin Bagley, or Markelle Fultz. The microscope that DA is placed under isn't anywhere the same as the one placed on the players I mentioned, even though Ayton HAS that playoff success that the former players at that top 3 pick level don't have. Don't get it twisted, Ayton is NOT the player he was in 2021, but just because that's the case doesn't make him the league's biggest disappointment.
