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

When did it become taboo to expect great things immediately from a #1pick?

Exactly.

The Cavs STOLE Kevin Love, as many thought, and @Eye Cue 182 was right.....and that's another reason why people are trying to force the "give him time" statements.

It shouldn't take a #1 pick, on a bad team at that, 4 games to just have a good game.

This is the #1 overall pick we talking about

Nikkas has no problem hyping him for THREE YEARS, now all of a sudden they want people to practice patience when critiquing his game.

Ok

Nobody gives a fukk these nikkas cries for mercy. I've always maintined Wiggins just isn't very good! It ain't even about trying to prove Wiggins isn't worth the hype... I'm way beyond that. I'm trying to tell people Wiggins just isn't that good or a basketball player PERIOD!

I don't know how good he will be, but he hasn't shown any signs of greatness since he was drafted. He was only ok at Kansas, and as a pro, he hasn't impressed in Summer League, Preseason, or the Regular Season thus far.


As the #1 overall pick in the draft, you should at least show flashes of why you were considered "The Next LeBron" coming out of HS.


Julius Randle had been much more impressive up until he got hurt

I was mad about this trade at first also but now i'm glad Love is on the Cavs.

when we're talking about expecting greatness in 3 games, 2 of them being against the best defenses in basketball in Memphis and Chicago. At this point, think about it. Who the fukk is really expecting greatness out of him, let alone now? His own team doesn't even expect it. They're just tryinh to development a project without failing.

It also doesn't help that he's not on your typical lotto team where it's not about just his development. They're trying to compete and win games. If it means he has to sit, then he'll sit. Most rookies enter being the best player or being asked to do the most. Wiggins is on a team where he's the weak link in the starting lineup and maybe the 6th best player overall on it.

If we're gonna be reactionary about shyt, the coli's favorite rookie was Zach LaVine and he's played 4 minutes in 3 games. Can we write him off already or should we "give him more time?"

I love how people are saying now "wiggins is the better athlete....but but but jabaris the better player"


No fukking shyt

Why are people acting like they traded Love for Wiggins and just forget about Thad Young & Bennett?

 

[NSSVO]

Hate threads like this. OP just made this so he can bring up later if he's right, and if he's wrong, there's a good chance we won't remember this bs thread. GTFOH

 

[King Poetic]

Not saying Wiggins might not be good.. but cleveland would have to unload a lot more for the trade

 

[Barry Sanders]

Nobody watches the T'Wolves. I think this has been well established

Minnesota was about to go to the lottery and lose love for nothing and the second and third best offers included getting Taj Gibson and getting Shumpert. Stop it.
