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

Where did Paul George or Tracy McGrady finish in the ROY voting :lupe:

McGrady averaged like 6 PPG and came off the bench his rookie year...dudes forget it took him 3 seasons before he started games and 4th before he became a legit star...

Paul George averaged 7.8ppg and came off the bench as well.

Oddly enough, those are the guys Wiggins is most compared to.

By this logic all the rookies have been busy cause none of them have looked like world beaters yet. Give them time. Even the much loved Jabari has struggled early. This stuff takes time

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
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:

Parker would be a legit starter on multiple teams. Wiggins shouldn't even be starting at this point.

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.

"At this point"? You mean in 3 games in with 79 more to go and you've already got him figured out. :what:

Wiggins is playing because he's a good defender, and you're acting like Jabari is currently putting up 20/8 or some shyt, they all are basically doing the same shyt right now.

It's been 3 games bruh, 3.

McGrady wasn't the number 1 pick and number 1 prospect coming into the NBA draft. McGrady was nicer as well. If Wiggins had gone 8th or 9th I wouldn't be saying shyt. But I made this thread because I though trading him for Love was dumb on Clevelands part and I was wrong.
