Skip: Even the good old man Monty can be furious by Ayton. Don t blame the Lakers. I haven t reminded you

In this offseason, Ayton and the Trail Blazers bought out and then signed with the Lakers.

Recently, famous speaker Skip updated his program "The Skip Bayless Show" and talked about his understanding of Ayton's signing with the Lakers.

He said: "The Lakers are only DeAndre Ayton left. His talent is undeniable, which is why Luca was just a 1st pick in the 2018 draft, but DeAndre Ayton is always questioned, man, is his power engine. His power engine, his driving force, his desire to win every night. He sometimes cares, sometimes doesn't care. Just don't care. So now both teams, the Suns and the Trail Blazers, have given up on this former No. 1 pick. Maybe LeBron and Luca, maybe only these two, maybe they can ignite Ayton's fighting spirit night after night. I will admit this possibility. But I will never forget my brother Lil What Wayne told me after Game 7 of the 2022 Division Semi-Finals. It was the Mavericks vs. Suns. That day Wayne sat in the front row of the sidelines. The Suns lost Game 7 by 33 points. The Suns' coach at the time, remember it was Williams, who directly pulled Ayton out of the field and abandoned it. Lil on the sidelines Within Wayne's audible range, Monty and Ayton broke out with an unprecedented fierce confrontation between players and coaches that Wayne had in such a public place. "

" Wayne has come into contact with many athletes and has participated in front row viewing in many, many NBA games. He called me and told me, 'I've never heard anything like that. The situation has become very vicious, it has become so ugly.' Remember, Monty Williams is seen as a Very good guy, respected throughout the league, good guy. Yet Ayton's attitude—maybe eroded him all year—had really made him explode in Game 7. He got out of control. He scolded Ayton in public and let a lot of people hear it. Ayton hit back in public in the same way, let everyone hear it. This was a tiebreak at home. Monty Williams couldn't stand Ayton's lack of effort. The Lakers should be careful, don't blame me for not reminding you."
