Being a talented underacheiver in the NBA has to be the goat experience

[EBK String]

nikkas like Wiggins, Harrison Barnes, Jrue Holiday, etc get paid like superstars but don't have to produce like a superstar and have none of the pressure from the media or fans to win rings or carry a team . They can just collect a check, smash bad thots, and hoop. get paid hundreds of millions to be a slacker brehs.

I agree with the last 2 guys you listed, but let's not act like Wiggins isn't under any pressure to live up to the hype of being the next generational superstar

I feel like that has already passed him and he is what he is

Pressure from whom? Wiggins goes largely ignored in the grand scheme of things. Hell, as long as LeBron is around, 98% of the whole LEAGUE is able to fly under the radar when it comes to meeting expectations.

I agree wit this. I NEVER thought Wiggins would be anywhere close to a star, let alone SUPERSTAR. nikka couldnt dribble against high school Canadians , wtf would make u think he could handle the rock in the NBA? nikka was never even a legendary HS player imo, just gifted athletically. I never thouggt Wiggins could even tgrive as a 2nd option, wtf would make me think he could be the best player on any team lmao.

nikka is BY FAR the most overrated HS prospect in NBA History. His HS skills shoulda never had him looked at as a franchise piece .

Oh I agree. I'm just saying that when he got drafted, people had absurd expectations for him just cuz of his leaping ability

And in turn the superstars get grossly underpaid

the bench players always look like they're having the most fun because they're under absolutely no pressure.

Felipe Lopez says hi.

Felipe Lopez says hi.

Damn, forgot how much he was hyped. Wiggins was propped as "the next LeBron" while going against scrub ass Canadians, i think his hype far outweighs Lopez imo.

One thing doe, Bill Self always FORCES tall SF's to play big man PF, but when u look at Josh Jackson compared to Wiggins, Josh still thrived and currently thrives on the perimeter, Josh plays bug as fukk down low though, something Wiggins was never even good at. Josh took that big man shyt and has used it a lot this season, Wiggins was neber even good at that shyt amongst nikkas much smaller. Josh will be 5× the player Wiggins will be, i guarantee that shyt.

Joe Johnson at least made sure his wave game was on point for all them years he stole NBA checks.
