u do not need advanced stats to see where Wiggins offensive game suffers. FT% is like 62%, Shooting % is 43%, 3P% is 33%. All well below average. i think Wiggins is a decent playmaker for his position.. but that is hard to quantify. Most stats point to him being a decent playmaker when you take into account his role in the Minnie offense.
Wiggins advanced stats on defense point to him being a below average defender. ( Defensive Points Saved, Defensive Real Plus-Minus, Adjusted Plus-Minus, Opponent FG%). Wiggins DefRtg ON/OFF is good because Crawford and Shabazz are horrible defenders. Shabazz is so bad he lost his rotation spot. Wiggins is definitely a better defender than Shabazz and Crawford.
Add it all up and..... Wiggy is a below average player who is slowly improving. Meanwhile, many guys in his draft class have blown right by him.

Advanced stats, better ones the the public one you used (which you have said as much in previous posts) tell a different story. And I could post more of them but lets be serious your mind is made up.
And yes he has weaknesses, as do all the others from that class, just they do not get the click bait results you get from posting negative shit about wiggins, then you don't stick to you guns and talk about how he will be or whatever, you are all over the map. Your routine is tired.
my mind made up? Spencer Dinwiddie changed my mind very quickly. I thought Fred Van Vleet was headed for the G-League. He changed my mind by how he played.
when Wiggins plays ball like Dinwiddie i'll change my stance.

lol. i just read your footer message. u r quoting my post and responding directly to the comments i made in the post. u do realize that your long term projection of Wiggins is the same as mine right? LOL.
thanks for the laughs man! and thx for those Cleaning the Glass Stats.... its a good site!
The ESPN Real Plus Minus stats just got updated. Wiggins is a -0.10 with an ORPM of 0.88 and a DRPM -0.98. He is the 16th best starting small forward in the NBA according to RPM.
my main man Spencer Dinwiddie... 4th best Real Plus Minus of all PGs !
I'm sure next years will have Embiid higher, these were the most recent I have found. But look a bunch more "marks"
Why is any of this credible? Please. Explain.
LOL, the point was to show that I'm not the one with some crazy out in left field opinion. Every article I could find on the topic you brought up had Wiggins top 3. Feel free to find something where he is outside the top 10.
But then what is your credibility? I have yet to see you post anything other then angry one liners that have zero back up. Stating your opinion with confidence and anger does not make it true big guy.
Do you want me to post my betting slips of profit off NBA futures and games that prove I know what I'm talking about?
Tyus Jones... best Defensive RPM of any point guard.
Lucas Noguiera playing goalie tonight for the Raptors.
Ibaka, Johnson ejected Johnson should be leaving out of a different exit...
Folks, these 2 teams don't like each other! we could see some Raptors suspended after this...
with Lowry injured Derozan has created a new imaginary friend. You'll notice Derozan randomly "fist bumping" nobody. That is Demar's new pretend friend.

Sure that would be great, do you really think I should just think you know what your talking about from your brillant post of history of "wiggins is trash" ROLF.
I mean I did offer you to come up with a bet on wiggins that I would take and you said nothing so.....

Probably didn't read the post. What's the bet?
I suggested you comeup with something since you were not happy with me suggesting we see how it works out over the next couple of years. You also are the betting expert and think he is bad in every way so I thought you could come up with something. Stakes would probably be Sig bet since money is hard to do over a forum.
# of All Star appearances, or All NBA selections within 3 years?
Again, you guys are arguing different things. Wiggins is certainly a disappointment as #1 pick (although the whole class is pretty disappointing), but he's not a below average player.

Spencer Dinwiddie says "hi". if you think he is a disappointment you probably are not watching him play. there is quite a bit of objective evidence Wiggins is a below average starter. he is getting better though. as a scorer Wiggins is below average. 32% from 3, 43% shooting, and a 63% FT% is below average 36.5% from 3, 47% shooting, and 75% FT% is average.
