lots of players 26+ when Wiggins started in the league are worse than Wiggins is now. This is because players on average decline after age 26. Vince Carter is worse than Wiggins now.
to his credit, Wiggins is the best player to come out of Kleinburg Ontario, Canada.
why is your entire personality based on hating Andrew Wiggins? "When did you first start cheating on your university entrance exams ?" You can see how assuming a fact in the middle of a question is pretty rude, right? But let's get back to basketball, rather than discussing the people in the thread. https://streamable.com/9rfqd0I feel badly for Steph You don't need to take his post personally because you are not JJR, we talk about BBall and each other, that is what makes somewhere like this different then somewhere like reddit. We have "relationships" based on years of discussing things with each other. It was a legitimate question based on all the past posts from that user. Unlike the rest of you have the exact same opinions as JJR on everything so that question might not make sense from your perspective. Now others when they have dealt with years of how wiggins is so bad because RPM says so. And then RPM now says what other people other people on the thread and people like Lowe have said, RPM is now wrong.
"two way Wig's" is alive and slightly above mediocre! Live with it.
Good news in the NBA, Levert has been cleared and wlll make his pacer debut tonight!

Curry, wigs, and draymond looked deadly today taking down the best team in the NBA. When they add Klay next year they are going to be the favorite if he is back close. Wiseman still has the tools hopefully he will figure it out and if they get real lucky and min ends up with the 4th pick they will be nuts.
|
Holy crap Wiggins is absolutely popping off 27/5/3 and 3 steals on 9/13 shooting with 5 made 3s! And it's against Memphis which is a decent defensive team. I hope mem makes a run and keeps it close and we might see 50!
Edit: slowed down a lot but still finished 40/8/8 and 4 steals.

As the trade deadline is approaching, i hope the Mavericks will make a move. Andre Drummond might be possible and i always thought he'd be a good fit. If he gets bought out i'll bury my hopes, though.
|
Wow vouch to bulls for porter, Wendel Carter junior and 2 firsts! Orlando going fill rebuild, Fournier and Gordon next?
Edit: Fournier to Celtics for 2 seconds.
|
If those aren't highly protected the Bulls FO is back to full clownshow status.
|
The first is only top 4 protected. Vooch is good. But bulls do not enough around to be good. Orl might end up with 2 top 10 or better picks
|
Aaron Gordon is a nugget! Details are not out yet, will update. Micheal porter Williams was what everyone wanted from the nuggets. They also.picked up Mcgee as a back up center today.
Edit: Gary Harris (for salary) rj Hampton (lottery pick with some promise) amd a future first. From the woj.

the dismantling of hte Raptors has begun.. Norm is gone. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nba/article/report-raptors-trade-norm-powell-trail-blazers/
First class guy all the way around... always gave 100% effort ... losing Norm is a big loss for the Raptors.

It is pretty hard to figure out, I missed the word "have"
Norm trade is strange without more info, Trent and hood? I was expecting picks and future. I mean Trent is a bit that but odd. Edit: I guess trent is 6 years younger so fits the time line and has shot the 3 at an elite level.

I'm not wasting time deciphering an incoherent sentence.
In any event, Norm is a rental who has never been a starter and will be expecting to cash in .... in a few months. The deal doesn't seem odd or strange to me. If anyone tries to make him a starter it'll be interesting to see how well that right shoulder holds up. Expect Hood to be waived or leave the team at the end of the year. Trent jr on a rookie deal is a nice gamble by Ujiri.
The peak of Norm's career occurred when he was inserted as a starter in the 4th game of that 1st round series with the Bucks in 2017. He turned the series around.
Norm will be missed.

What is pretty confusing is that you felt the need to comment on it. Most would not take a weak passive aggressive shot, and then another, but most are not you!
George Hill to the sixes, I wonder if this means they are out on Lowry. The three teams woj said were vying for him was sixes, heat and lakers. With the heat being the favorite.
|
Thomas to the Jazz for a future 2nd rounder. Thomas 41.5% 3-point percentage is based off of a lot of 3s at a high degree of difficulty. The guy is a stone cold sniper.
|
Rondo from hawks to clippers for Lou Williams and 2 seconds. Clips hoping for the playoff Rondo upgrade.
|
|
Terrence Davis to Sacramento for a 2nd rounder. Damn, I was hoping he'd get some playing time with Norm gone. Perhaps opening up a roster spot for the Lowry trade?
|
Terrance Davis to the kings for a second. With this and almost never used Matt Thomas going it looks like the raps are opening up two roster spots for a soon to be announced Lowry deal
|
if Kyle doesn't go... its because he could not negotiate a wink-wink-nudge-nudge handshake deal type of extension with whomever the Raptors trading partner was.
Oladipo to Miami according the Grange and some ESPN guy.

Which prob means nets, clips or lakers.
I'd say dark horses are Knicks since they checked in on trade and could sign him after and your mavs but I think he will go ring chasing.
