We shall see....give us Wiseman or a real center and we back to pushing y'all shyt in....especially now that you don't have one.
People say shyt just to say shyt
A lot of players are negative contracts with the way maxes get handed out. They still don't have the profile of Wiggins. If he weren't good enough for what is supposedly the Warriors big plan, they wouldn't have gotten him from the Wolves.
I know, in fact it dwarfs Giannis's salary, so it can't be compared to the AD trade. You can't get 3 interesting 20 year olds, you get an established 20 a night guy the same age as Giannis.
Just that pick alone isn’t even offsetting just having to take on the Wiggins contract. No way is that bridging the gap to getting Giannis.
Its just not worth it at that point. If you risk losing Giannis for nothing, at least you can contend for a year. Wiggins as a lead option will make your team 10 wins worse. He hasnt even proven that he can have a good influence as a #2 or #3 yet. I dont think the Warriors are pushing aggressively for another star, or they wouldve kept Russell. His reputation isnt tarnished like Wiggins. I thought they picked up Wiggins because they could make him work with a winning culture. Plus he adds better spacing to their lineup then Russell. If they were planning on going all out for a superstar, the Wiggins trade makes no sense. 60-70% of the league will see that contract as a burden.
Because you can't sell Wiggins' potential to anyone at this point. He doesn't have that anymore, especially to teams who don't just look at PPG as something amazing. Otherwise they woulda kept Parker (speaking of Parker, that's a good reason why they wouldn't value a high pick as much as some other teams.) They'd rather go for it with a player whose caliber they'll never encounter again than sell bullshyt to a fanbase who would easily tune them out.
Durant wasnt weird until GS?
