If you listen to Ayton talk about himself you'd think he's David Robinson. Show it.
How old was David Robinson when he came into the league?
I am with 'dack but also with the other folks who don't care what he says. The kid has the gift of gab. Let's ignore all that see how he does after CP3 chews him out on a missed roll to the hoop. At that point, we'll see what he can be. I suspect he will sulk the first time around but be better every time afterwards.

Ayton goes to another level when he’s mad. If that’s what it takes I hope CP3 chews him a new one regularly. What’s up virtual9mm? Nice to see you here anytime! I just looked at a picture of one of our first gatherings and you looked so young. You are getting to be an old man by now. :)

Hope there is some substance to this. Cam couldn't have been better in the Bubble.

Wiggins got it, but it was always a terrible contract
Wiggins is actually a very similar player/situation.

Yeah, I would not enjoying hanging out w/ Ayton. I've known guys like him that just love the sound of their own voice so will say any ol' fucking thing.

I met Ayton and he was very nice to me.

There's going to be a day when Ayton becomes a man. For the sake of the Suns, I hope it's really soon.

Never happened for Dwight Howard, and he was actually a beast on the floor. He just didn't have his bball priorities right.

Dwight was aggressive from day one, though.

Always good to run into you! And we're all much, much older now. I have a salt and pepper mustache now. And it's still hard to imagine that Swingy's no longer with us.

Ayton makes me think of when I was his age. I was into full contact martial arts and didn't actually like hitting other people hard. One day, it just kind of clicked that it was ok to make full contact. Maybe he'll be the same.

Was that the day someone made full contact with you first? :)

I might have to reconsider the purpose of this site if we don't have a thread with just memes with Chris Paul berating Deandre Ayton.

Will this be the same day that Bender becomes a man, as promised by many Suns fans?

Will the ozone layer just sprinkle testosterone down the Valley spontaneously one day?

These dudes don’t grow balls. They either got em at this level or they don’t. I still believe in Ayton and even as is he is already a great role player, but I will be shocked if he ever becomes a franchise piece.

Just the fact that he said wherever CP3 wants me is where I’ll be. He is so quick to defer. I want to hear him say tell CP to find me on the block. I’m going to dominate down low this year. He has no clue how good he is. He is the most physically gifted player on our team. If he realizes his potential he’d be by far our best player.

I was able to watch Galloway early on when he came up with the Knicks. It's always tough being a young player with that franchise because as soon as you show any ability, they expect you to be a superstar which is hard to live up to. I was always interested in his game because he's a long scoring guard with good burst and nice in-between offense. He's not an ISO/beat his man off the dribble or pull up from deep kinda guard. He's bounced around a bit but it's about finding the right situation and he should do well in Monty's system

I get excited when players talk about Phoenix being at the top of the places they wanted to go.
