I'd consider trading Wiggins. It would depend on the haul I'd get though

It's amazing that three crazy athletic, young dudes like KAT, Wiggins & LaVine don't play a lick of defense. Dieng is horrible too.

Nah it's about what I'd expect. Defense is communication, effort and bball IQ mostly. Things young players generally lack. Effort should be a given but in some cases you have to coach that up too. You definitely have to coach up the communication and Bball IQ. Thibs just screaming at them when they fukk up isn't gonna solve shyt.

The real is answer is that this team should have recognized perception is not reality and leveraged that into a franchise defining deal that The Casuals would laugh at first then suck their dikk later.

Wiggins + Deing for Butler

This is what they should have done. Now they stuck with Wiggins who they will continue to market as the franchise hanging talent he's not. In addition, Towns will start (already happening) to resent the unwarranted attention Wiggins gets and start to try to assume a more alpha role because they're tired of losing.

I do this shyt from my living room better than every GM in every sport. shyt frustrates the heck outta me.

KAT is the only player on that level, Wiggins like a poor man's Demar Derozan or something




Wiggins is a poor man's version of current Derozan.


3rd year Derozan averaged 17/3/2


Give these kids a chance. I bet the Raptors are glad they didn't give up on him early.

A thread about OKC blowing up their core is front page today and people want to blow up a team with four potential all star talents all under 22:mjlol:
Difference is the Thunder made the playoffs by KDs third year (west brooks second year and hardens rookie year) they won 50 games in a much tougher west. If the wolves can't even win 40 games this year there's a problem. They're the 2nd worst team in the west when they should easily be top 7, something isn't clicking.

He's part of it. But let me guess, I should listen to a guy that said a team with Kyrie would never win shyt?


I should listen to a guy that said Cleveland would regret keeping Kyrie and letting Waiters go?
