He needs buffs because he is weak as hell. A ganker with 325 movement speed is pretty much screwed. His CD are too long, his initiation unreliable and his early game crap. Pretty much any jungler can invade and kill naut at his red.

Sure, his single target lockdown and his late game are great. So are Maokai's, but his early game and ganks are much better than Naut's. So people just figure they might as well pick Mao and be done with it.
