Pretty sure he is doing OK financially, turns out being richer than Mark Cuban means you have enough money to run your super profitable NBA team. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/article/Fertitta-s-fourth-blank-check-company-16052301.php | ||

I wholeheartedly agree Mr. Powell. I hated leaving Toronto as well. Its a crying shame Dalton Mcguinty//Kathleen Wynne tanked the economy into the ground. I feel sad for the immigrants of the city today because the level of opportunity they have in front of them is a fraction of what is was 10+ years ago. As cool as Toronto remains today the city was an order of magnitude better 10+ years ago. The Raptors were in trouble down 1-2 to the Bucks in the 2017 playoffs. Norm was a huge factor in turning the series around. Kudos to Masai Ujiri for assembling a great collection of really solid, first class human beings. Norm will be missed.

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. ya man , Wiggins is an integral part of a 23-26 team where he is the 3rd, 4th, or 5th best player. He is better than he was 6 years ago though. He has improved from very bad to below average. So that is progress. | ||

To have your argument even make sense you have to quote where I write a opinion that you argue against. Now I will say he's above average starter in the league when, if golden states gets their other star back, if the other players can do the one thing wiggins is unarguably elite at, staying healthy and playing big minutes continually. https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/warriors/warriors-andrew-wiggins-impresses-steve-kerr-most-one-specific-area https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/article/Could-Andrew-Wiggins-eventually-play-Andre-16071553.php | ||

One good thing Kerr has done is limit Wiggins minutes this year. Wiggins is set to play the lowest MPG of his career. Good move by Kerr. I don't think its a good idea to play Wiggins 35+ minutes per game. I recommend continuing to lower Wiggins minutes in the future and I suspect that's what will happen. If Wiggins gets angry about his minutes going down just spew out some BS , like Kerr did, during a presser about what a wonderful guy he is.

Just watch the games. It is amazing how you have stuck to this narrative despite all evidence being to the contrary, whether it is traditional stats, advanced stats, comments from teammates, articles by insiders like Lowe, comments by Kerr, it is quite fascinating. Is this the only place you are on non-stop wiggins sucks or do you also troll on Reddit and Twitter? Do you get a better reception there or is a bunch of thumbs down like here? I mean if you really want to hate on someone from that draft class how about Parker! Or Dante Exum, or if you just really hate Canadians how about Nik Stauskas. If you were doing a redraft right now the only top 10 guy sure to be picked ahead of him is Embiid, (Jokic would go first but considering the entire NBA missed on him that can be forgiven), and everyone thought Embiid was the best talent just were unsure on his health. Otherwise you have a bunch of complete busts and some very flawed but capable NBA players just like wiggins. You got Lavine, Randle, Smart, gordon, Nurkic and Capela. All are pretty decent starters, none are game breakers a lot like Wiggins. Next year GSW are going to be dynamite because Klay will be back and because they absolutely robbed the Twolves, They got the better players and a 1st that will be unprotected next year!!! For the presumably worst team in the league. They can trade it and Wiggins for basically anyone because it will be the #1 asset and Wiggins contract value, plus his age and how he has played. Or they can keep it and be set for another run as their current core ages. That team is going to be stacked. 2 HOF one DPOY, (possibly 3rd HOF) and then Wiggins to play the Iggy roll eat minutes and play games to keep the others healthy. It is going to be nasty! This take of yours is worse than that Tillman was broke, and that was a REALLY REALLY terrible take! | ||

nice buzzer beater by Gary Trent Junior... nuttin but nylon.

In any event, he borrowed 100+ million at over 13% interest. he is having "liquidity issues". You can not claim my take is either "good" or "bad" with the ill defined terms you use. | ||
