Looks like the Hawks are going to start fining Dunleavy if he does not show up. According to league rules he has 72 hours to report. Hawks won't rescind the trade. | ||

just saying he is top 1% size and athleticism is just a way to white-wash over Wiggins flaws as a player. any how, onto something more interesting... some pretty good insight on reddit about the Raptors flaws. Derozan is actually way better than he was 5 years ago when it comes to passing out of double teams and traps. I think fans expect him to be as good a play maker as Lowry and Joseph.. which just ain't happening. Also in DDs defense its a lot easier to be a play maker 30 feet from the basket with action only in front of you than it is 18 feet from basket with action happening on all sides of you. "1)JV IS OPEN SO MANY TIMES, there were so many instances where JV was wide open and in position but no one passed to him. I was wondering why he only had 4PTS at half time or so 2) Demar seemed to have a hard time at recognizing when the double team is coming and when he passed it was too late and led to a few turnovers" at the end of the playoff series where JV was most important and Kyle couldn't put a ball in the ocean ( cant recall if it was the 1st or 2nd round) Lowry looked straight into the camera and said "we've got to start running more plays for JV". what happened Kyle? Jefferson v. Ross ( which no one cares about) + Show Spoiler + Ross is a career 36% shooter in the playoffs while Jefferson is a career 47.5% shooter. Jefferson's defense is way better. Both the Raptors and Cavaliers have 0% chance of missing the playoffs so the playoffs are all that matters. either spoiler tag ur replies or PM me. because this "discussion" is a waste of space. | ||

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18438643/mike-dunleavy-decides-report-atlanta-hawks RJ v. Ross + Show Spoiler + last year's playoff #s have already been discussed RJ went 44 for 84 and Ross went 46 for 119. its not close. RJ >> Ross in last years playoffs in every aspect of the game. RJ played great defense in the finals. Ross has never come close to shooting 50% in any playoff year. Ross will definitely be better than RJ after RJ retires though. nice trolling by you though. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + RJ also had twice as many rebounds in the playoffs with only 20% more playing time. RJ is a way better defender. Ross is in the prime of his career and he can't even get a start on an above average team in a lousy division. the Cavs don't care about the regular season which is why they only won 57 games last year. because the raptors had those two 7 game series they played 20 games whereas the Cavs played 21 games. back to reality. Justin Anderson with the clothesline... i'm surprised he didn't get ejected | ||

i can see why Wiggins has detractors. He just stood around motionless on offense. When a player is a potted plant on offense you'd expect some aggressiveness on defense. Nope, not of that from Wiggins. He stood around on defense as well. I'm not even sure he was even sweating in the 4th quarter. Wiggins linescore matches his night. no assists, no blocks, no steals, 3 TOs, 3 ORBs... no wonder the guy never gets hurt. ummm, Derrick Rose is missing? ouch. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18440024/new-york-knicks-derrick-rose-undisclosed-reason-sources-say-guard-unreachable-game Anthony and O'Quinn got ejected in the game tonight; you have to wonder if Hornacek and Rose had a giant argument and the players are pissed about it. is the team imploding? or is it a family crisis for Rose. | ||

if Wiggins were a DH in the American League maybe regurgitating offense linescore stats would provide a comprehensive description of his contribution. He is not though. He is a basketball player. There is an entire other side to the game. His defense in both games was pedestrian and his intensity was low. If he can become an effective defender playing at this "pace" of the last 2 games i've seen it'll be awesome because he'll rarely get hurt playing like this. Its little wonder he has only missed 1 out of 200+ pro games. Wiggins doesn't play DH for the Timberwolves so telling me his OBPS won't cut it. And copying and posting his point totals only tells a fraction of the story. Right now, Wiggins is a below average basketball player playing on a below average basketball team. As I've stated earlier, I suspect in 5 years he'll grow into an above average player and occasional all star. He'll never be a guy who year-in and year-out is part of the debate of who the best basketball player in the world is. | ||
