I was wrong about the Wiggins/Love trade. Minny should've asked for more.

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Wiggins is athletic but that about it. Not really impressive. Love brings way more to the table and he's only 25. If Cleveland would've (should've drafted) Parker, it would've been harder to let him go. Best case Wiggins could be DeRozan 2.0 or some shyt but I just don't see a super star caliber player at this point.

Been saying this. Jabari is going to be better.

People fell in love with Wiggins vertical leap and overall athleticism. Parker's game is more refined and he should easily win rookie of the year. I'm still rooting for Wiggins because of how he got tossed aside, AND THAT SHOULD LIGHT A FIRE, and motivate him even more, but I don't see it. I don't see him play with a chip on his shoulder. I know its early so things might change, but so far.. :snoop:

Sometimes it should just come down to whose a better basketball player and I think Jabari is point blank nut wiggins is the far better basketball athlete.

None of these rookies are setting the world on fire but Wiggins, Exum and Embiid were all about potential and how they project in a few years. Parker was the known commodity and everyone knew his game would translate right away, right now Parker doesn't look as polished as everyone expected and he's playing PF of all things because he can't defend SFs. But, you won't see threads on his performance cause it's been 3 games :russ:

You remember a player named Tracy McGrady....it took him about 3 years to be a great player.

Embiid was the one guy in the draft with superstar potential. Maybe a sleeper like Payton or Saric will turn into a stud, but after watching the top prospects in college last year, it seemed pretty clear that none of them were what they were hyped to be coming into last season.

Not saying they can't/won't be really good players in the future, but I doubt any besides Embiid become franchise changing pieces.
