Y’all are severely overrating this nikka Wiggins

He did his job and let’s just leave it at that

“Did his job” :why:

Dude was the 2nd best player on a championship team. Same dude that was known his entire career as an underachieving loser. He deserves all the praise. He realized his potential.

It doesn't work like this.

Wiggins has been in/around many different personnel for nearly a decade (including Butler) and he still struggled to play "winning basketball". The system/culture in GS brought that out in him, as it does for nearly every single player that goes to The Bay, but I wouldn't go just expecting that to have happened alongside Bron, especially since he'd have a completely role, wouldn't get the same easy scoring opportunities and wouldn't have been part of a team that plays as a collective.

GS is the right environment, but you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else in the league that brings out the best in players like it does.

How u gonna bring up GS culture and not acknowledge that he played for one of the most inept franchises of the last 20 years? And Jimmy’s approach doesn’t work for a nikka like Wiggins..he needs to be coached up.

But you knew that...you know you just don’t fukk with Wiggins:mjpls:

Here you are acknowledging that Wiggins needs to be "coached up", so how the fukk do you think that was going to happen with Bron, who wanted guys who were already developed and didn't want to spend his time "coaching up" players because he was in win-now mode? As a matter of fact, name me the players that Bron coached up when he returned to Cleveland?

:usure:

But you knew that already and just wanted to shoehorn Bron into the conversation out of your hate for Steph.

Nah b


Steph owns the Western Conference. Since Kerr became coach, they havent lost a series to a Western Conference team.

Prepare to be sick all summer once again next year :umad:
I'm not mad. I like watching the Warriors.
It's just not smart to assume a team is going to repeat.
In recent memory there were a handful of teams you could look a season ahead and easily say could repeat.

80s Laker team where they said they were gonna win next year
Bulls
2000 Lakers
Warriors with KD

Everyone thought the Bucks were coming back this year. Everyone thought the Suns were gonna get it.

Every year different. There's no way anyone can guarantee they're gonna win next year. This Warriors team doesn't give guaranteed repeat vibes
