what the hell is going on with him
@Gil Scott-Heroin
He's an empty calories player. Always has been and always will be.
At least Wiggins has actual talent. I had to throw that in there. lol.
In all seriousness: he's that big ass football nxgga at the rec who takes over every possession and tries to bully his way to buckets, but has no bag, and stumbles and fumbles his way through the game and nobody has the heart to call offensive fouls on him. Leaking out on every possession to cherry pick, and demanding the ball when there's any sort of defensive breakdown so he can get those cheap ass shots in the paint. He'll only pass the ball once he reaches a dead-end, which is almost every other possession. The type of cat who will tell you he scored x-amount of points and grabbed x-amount of rebounds at the end of the game to overcompensate for his lack of game.
It's why he manages to fool everyone with his box score stats, because he's such a high motor, high volume player, he's naturally going to get surface stats with how much he involves himself in the play, and can counterbalance his efficiency so it doesn't look so bad when he can't create for himself against set defenses. He eats off those easy scoring opportunities. He'll go like 4 out of 8 from the field in a half, but three of those made shots were gimmies or ones that the average player could've scored, and he would be 1 out of 5 on the other shots where he had to score against actual defense.
What makes it worse is, he pouts and becomes disinterested once shyt doesn't go his way. He's best utilized as a 6th man, because he can come in and provide energy, get quick buckets, and you don't have to really rely on him to contribute anywhere else (which he doesn't anyway), and he's not going to fukk up the rhythm of the starters by being a hungry hippo for the ball, which is one of the more overlooked negatives of his play, is that everyone has to sacrifice their own game/touches while he's all up in the videos of every possession.
