Am I the only one who still believes Wiggins is gonna be the next Jordan?

[Swagnificent]

Nah, he means the next Jordan bruh.


Wiggins been pegged as having superstar potential for the longest time so being a great wing player was basically a given.

kobe = next jordan
bron = next jordan
wiggins = next jordan

next jordan = transcendant player of a generation. jordan ruled the 90s. kobe ruled the 00s. bron's got the 10s right now. and wiggins is next up and will rule the 20s. that is what i mean.

He was the number 1 player in HS, the number 1 pick in the draft, expecting him to be a superstar or all-time great wing is a given.


You took it a step further by saying he's the next Jordan, just passing by high impact wings that aren't Jordan but still all-time talents.

and yet there were many saying he would be a bust. many picking parker over him. many saying a healthly embiid was the hands down #1 pick. and so on.

stop acting like there was a consensus. there were many doubters. way more than when durant or rose or even blake griffin were projected as the #1 pick. you had the cavs trade him for kevin fukkin love. just think about that for a moment. kevin love. a total scrub. most had jabari winning ROY. most said his offensive game was raw and he'd struggle to score.

stop acting like people saw this coming. his production as a rookie has been a surprise to most. just look at what most people thought he would average in his rookie year. I was being laughed at when I said he'd average 18/6/3 as a rookie. nikkas was like if he can only score 17ppg in the big 12 how could he do more in the nba?

Kevin Love WAS a 26/13 player when he was traded, Wiggins was the number 1 pick, stop acting like he's some diamond in the rough that you discovered in the second round. He was hyped going into college and coming into the NBA, he had some detractors but so does every player.

You were being laughed at because you said he'd be better than Paul George this season, which he hasn't been.

Embiid was gonna be the #1 pick if he didn't get hurt
Jabari could've won ROY, he was playing better than Wiggins before he got hurt and was trending upward
You were laughed at because you keep making outlandish statements like saying he's already better than Paul George
If we're getting technical Wiggins didn't average 18/6/3 as a rookie

@Swagnificent called Embiid the next Hakeem ontop of that, but here he is acting like it's some travesty that Embiid may have been taken first if he were healthy.

I said he'd be AS GOOD as paul george BY THE END of the season. stop flipping my words.

and I believe I've been right. Wiggins been a 19/5/2 player since late December. thats Paul George level production.

taking hakeem over jordan is a travesty.

he's been at 19/5/2 since the December 23rd game against the Cavs which was his coming out party.

That's nice but the season didn't start on December 23rd so what I said stands

 

[DoubleClutch]

Wiggins is better than expected but he's more like the next Scottie Pippen than jordan

PG averaged 22/7/4/2 for an entire season not some arbitrary start point like you want to use, Wiggins isn't as good as Paul, so you're wrong no matter how you slice it

when minny was running the offense through wiggins he was putting up those nnumbers. unfortunately they stopped doing it when that ballhog kevin martin came back.

who cares anyways? next season, Wiggins will make any comparison to George look laughable. he'll be a 25ppg scorer.
