    Guys, Ayton is definitely not a star and his contract is inflated. But you don't watch Portland games, and your assessment of his performance is still far from reality. Nowadays it's an automatic double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds, but sometimes he produces a bad game. You literally only remember the moments when he plays poorly, and yes, he can play terrible, but the hype around him is unjustified because he plays... just like a good NBA player, which is not enough for a max contract, but also not enough for him to hated. I'm pretty weak in English, so I could write something stupidly

      He's been one of the best most consistent blazer players this season. Sure it's on a losing team with no expectations of winning this year. But he's been a good player for the Blazers and his mentality seems improved over here.

    His situation is simple to fix. He needs a pass first point guard, tyrese, Luka would be perfect for him in the pick and roll. In Portland, when he sets a pick and starts to roll, he doesn't get the ball back. This is why he had good success with Chris Paul. Indiana or Dallas would be a better fit.

He'll start having interviews and talking about how he was immature and didn't work hard enough, but then when his career was almost over he got one last chance and capitalized on it. Wait and see.

    He’s always been petulant. He needs to feel involved in order to produce. In Phoenix, he would beast for 3 quarters then not see the ball at all in the 4th for YEARS. Even when he was putting up absurd #s in their Finals run. When you’re shooting 80%, grabbing boards, and shutting down your man, then not seeing the ball in crunch time, that’s gonna feel like a slap in the face.
    On the Portland side, his need to be set up in order to finish well is the issue. And since he’s not producing, his touches are down, and boom! now the effort is gone again.
    If any NBA team could figure that out and actually get players to put him in spots like the Suns did AND continue to go to him as the game goes on, I think we can see him blossom into the player he was supposed to be. But it better happen soon or it never will.

    The Suns made a horrible decision trading away Ayton. They created a hole at center that they didn’t have before. I don’t care if he wasn’t a top 10 center. He was still a solid starter and his talent was unquestioned. He’s a better center than Jusuf Nurkic, a better defender and a much better score, and I bet the Suns regret shipping him off after that first round sweep.

    Deandre Ayton is definitely better than a NBA draft bust. To his credit, he's still better than the average NBA player. Also, he's proven to be (or at least he used to) a valuable starter on a NBA Finals contending team.
    Ayton was overhyped (Arizona star playing for the Suns is good marketing), which led him to being overpaid (4 years/$132 million), and now he is overrated (never reached All-Star status). And the criticism of his low work ethic is totally fair.
    But he can still produce good statistics in games (20-25 points and 10-15 rebounds), and still finishes with annual season stats with a double double.
    That being said, when you're the #1 pick of your draft, and there are 8 guys drafted after you who are better (Luka Dončić, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Brunson, Trae Young, and Jaren Jackson Jr., Mikal Bridges, Michael Porter Jr. and Anfernee Simons), people are gonna criticize your career.

    I feel like getting drafted to a Phoenix hurt him, and now being in Portland he just doesn't care. Is he was drafted to a solid org with good vets to guide him, he could've been really great. If he went to Boston or Miami or GSW or hell even the Lakers. He's a walking 20-10 guy who can hit nice mid range jumpers to give himself some space in the paint.
