Wiggins had a Hardenesque performance.
Nah, not at all. He wasn't barreling into the paint searching for contact. He got around 8 of this free throws from being fouled on jumpshots. Then a decent amount from getting hit going to the rim, not in a Harden "i-hope-i-get-this-whistle" way either. Solid drives getting by his man one on one. Really impressive performance. Only reason he didn't score more is because guys from his squad were not getting him the rock in spots he can be effective and/or when he was wide open. Fools that are never gonna make that Cleveland roster were looking off the number 1 pick to take contested 25 footers.

thoughts from the games yesterday:

- exum is not a sg, and Utah is messing up trying to make him one....he just doesn't have that mentality...he was passing up shots, didn't attack on offense when he had the chance, and was trying to setup teammates more than look for his shot...they'd be better off trading burke for something, making exum the pg and moving hood to 2; or making burke a 6th man and letting him come in sparking the bench...cause he was looking for his shot more than setting up teammates, while exum was doing the opposite...

- hood is gonna be a nice pickup, he's been playing good so far...seems his game was more ready for the pros than it looked at duke...

- hardaway looks ready for the season now...he's been leading the knicks at the games so far....i'm talking about in play and as far as being a leader on the team....him vs pj gonna be a nice matchup....

- speaking of pj, him and the hornets have a nice team...him, zeller, the rook for ind, and a couple others putting in work...pat got those boys playing out there....
