So you are saying they are true because you say so and no amount of counter argument will change your mind?

just add this to the mountain of evidence that Wiggins is a below average or worse defender.

if you have anything to support wiggins being an average or better defender feel free to present it.

if we're going to get more formal here then i prefer not using the words "bad player" because it is too vague and has too negative of a connotation.

i'd say Wiggins is somewhere between the 18th and 21st best starting small forward in the NBA this year. So I'd say Wiggins is a somewhat below average starting small forward in the NBA this year.

LeBron finished 8/8 from FT tonight, has now made 27 of his last 28 FTs, bringing his FT% on the season to .785, a career high.

LeBron is now shooting a career high in FG%, 3P%, and FT% (and obviously eFG% and TS%)

LeVine & Dunn tonight had a combined 34 mins for 10 pts (45%), 5 Reb, 14 Ast, 1 Stl. My proprietary system shows that this means the Jimmy Butler trade is now an extreme success.

Tatum is 2 for 8 from 3 since he dislocated his pinky finger. story is he put it back in place hiimself on the court about an hour after he dislocated it.

if any one knows of a proprietary simulation model that foresaw Tatum's dislocated pinky finger i'd love to check it out.

http://boston.cbslocal.com/2017/12/21/jayson-tatum-celtics-dislocated-pinky-nba/

according to my eye test ... Tatum is already better than Wiggins... and 3 years younger.
so out of the young and up and coming SFs Wiggins isn't even in the top 3 because of Tatum, OG , and Giannis... and prolly Aaron Gordon as well.

Actually, my system stated that Tatum's shooting could only be explained by extremely good finger location. Perhaps unsustainably good finger location. Thus, a prediction of dislocation of at least one finger during the season was anticipated.

have you seen lowry's hand? LOL. Lowry is also on his 3rd black eye this year. That elbow from Covington was vicious... he'll have a shiner by tomorrow.

i'm predicting 5 black eyes for lowry this year. stitches in his face 6 times and 4 fat lips.

The Raptors have played the fewest home games at 12. Cavs and Boston ~17 home games.

JJ you are being a lazy troll if you cant even make a proper defense of your claims.

Anyway.theringer article on Mike Beastley, seriously dark horse MVP!

https://www.theringer.com/nba/2017/12/22/16809420/icymi-20171221

B-Easy dropped 32 points in 25 minutes on one of the best defenses in the league. Boston—which also has the best record in the East—lost to the Knicks because of a man who unironically wears three watches (he’s STRAPPED IN). The Celtics couldn’t find a man to stop him—neither Al Horford or Marcus Smart could hold Beasley back after he checked back into the game after halftime. From that point—5:20 remaining in the third—until the end, Beasley scored 28 points. He finished with 12 rebounds in the Knicks’ 102-93 win.

I've read a few things calling him benjamin button because he's having the best year of his career. He may end up passing Jordan by the end of it because his sustained being the best player in the NBA is crazy.

God I hope you're right, I love seeing an athlete from Ohio play so well for so long.

Is it really important ? We can all agree he's playing at an absurdly high level given his age.

Just tryin' to avoid any unnecessary debate...

Porzingas interview...
i like his confidence and honesty after a dreadful shooting night.
https://streamable.com/ydmjz

its Wayne Gretzky who said "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take"... not Kobe.

problem is that you stated in your PM you wanted to troll me,. so your comment is ironic. seeing as that is your explicitly stated goal in your PM i'd have to conclude you are the troll.

any how, i've already stated why he is a below average small forward. the other poster isn't making a counter claim other than some vague generalizations. i'm being very specific. a specific claim can be the basis of a discussion. and vague subjective claim can not.

So at this point i'd have to say you are trolling and mucking up the thread.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/sports/526388-nba-season-2017-2018?page=64#1278

after Minnesota's last win here is a look at the team.
Wiggins: weak offense + weak defense = below average player

right now , Wiggins is the worst starter on the team. which is why he has only played 5 of the last 24 fourth quarter minutes during comeback wins.
