I'd be down with that
That's a terrible deal for Phoenix as Turner has been stagnant as a player for years now, where as Ayton has more potential offensively and defensively.
Suns have been reluctant to give DeAndre Ayton rookie max extension

Sarver always has been and likely always will be trash. It was James Jones and Monty who turned the culture around

I could see OKC make a run after him if they don't get Chet in the draft

Ayton lacks aggression & heart.I'd just like to see the Suns with an actual offensive threat at center.Someone who can go ISO & stretch the floor.Ayton's a better defender when he's locked in, but admittedly, I've always been skeptical of this guy.He has "Get paid & tank it" oozing out of his pores.He came into league saying his biggest goal was to make it to a 2nd contract.I detect fool's gold with this fella.
If that's what you're looking for, then look elsewhere as Myles Turner isn't it
Jokic
Embiid
KAT

Those are the only centers that fit that description and who're unequivocally better than Ayton, and needless to say, they're not options for the Suns. Perhaps you'd like to have a big man that provides that for your team, but Ayton is the best you're realistically going to have/get for the foreseeable future. This is a simple case of just playing the hand that you're dealt, because you're not going to get a card better than him.

CP3 didn't make shyt. I've seen too many of these posts where dudes have been trying to falsely attribute improvements, skillsets and abilities of the Suns' players to CP3.
Stop the cap.
Deandre Ayton himself would say otherwise
Ayton on Chris Paul: 'He was the best thing that happened to my career'
Nowhere does he say Chris Paul "made him" or anything that insinuates as such.Deandre Ayton himself would say otherwise
Ayton on Chris Paul: 'He was the best thing that happened to my career'
But you already knew this, and quoting my post only further proves my point about muh'fukkas trying to give unwarranted credit to CP3.
The posts I see on here
This is a logout and never log back in again ever offence.
The entire article literally states from own Ayton's words what CP3 has done to elevate his game and make him a better player

Zero chance he isn't receiving a max
That's not making him.The entire article literally states from own Ayton's words what CP3 has done to elevate his game and make him a better player
That's helping him become better and/or instilling belief to help maximize his abilities. It's just generic shyt that you hear from young players talking about their experienced/veteran teammates. You've got Suns fans in here arguing that Ayton is the same player now than before CP3 was on the team, so it makes zero sense to argue CP3 is responsible for the player he is:
Here a Suns fan is stating nothing has changed from when Ayton first came in the league to now. His skillset, talent, mentality and idiosyncrasies were already there and hard-wired before CP3 even landed in Phoenix.
And I should hope a multi-All Star/All-NBA player helps elevate and mentor young players. That was half the reason the Suns brought in CP3, to help lead the young, inexperienced players. But how could anyone possibly argue that CP3 made Ayton, let alone use what Ayton said as evidence of being so? Giannis has spoken about how PJ Tucker was instrumental in making him a better player and understanding the nuances of the game.
You gonna start arguing that Tucker made Giannis?
That's rhetorical. Now stop quoting me.

They are going to pay Ayton, they would be dumb as shyt not too. It’s really Bridges you got to wonder will they pay or try to move.
