No hype for Wiggins going into 2017?

It's crazy that Wiggins is a great/phenomenal athlete but just watching him on the court you wouldn't be able to tell. He plays so relaxed and nonchalant. Watching players like Jordan and Lebron in their prime and you would see extreme explosiveness. It would look like other players don't even belong on the court with them. With Wiggins it's different, even though he's probably just as athletic. It's a mystery to me.

@Malta you know why he shined tonight? He got to play his natural position of the 2. :mjcry:


For all the good Lavine does for the team, he also prevents Wiggins from playing the position he's best at and most suited for. He can DOMINATE opposing 2 guards just because he's taller and can constantly hit his turnaround jumpers on them and bully them in the post. That isn't anywhere near as easy at the 3.

They may bring LaVine off the bench, Bjelica looked the best he's looked at SF and gives them the shooting and size to afford to play Wiggins at the 2.

I've said this many times....this is a bad comp because of the 3...his ceiling is much higher than derozan...think of where demar was in year 3...Wiggins is way ahead of that...
I think he a better Joe Johnson.. iso extra and excellent shooter (at least will become)

It's his ball handling. Lebron and Jordan were natural dribblers. Wiggins not so much. Once his handle gets better you'll see his real athletic potential
