Worst Case: Travis Outlaw

Parker
Best Case: Benard Kingish
Worst Case: Laphonso Ellis


Smart

Vonleah

His Game is fit for the Nba..Kansas offense is too Half court oriented and that's where he struggles at right now but the same could be said bout Bron at the age shyt right now as we speak Bron struggles sometimes when the game is slowed down the kid gonna be a beast in the league


bron never had issues, or played like you posted.
on top of being the floor leader at his natural as a hs turned pro at pg.
plus, he played with two players who had that dog in them mentally.
yet, was still obviously better than both as perimeter players as a rook.
than both were their entire career.
on top, of making boozer look like the best low post guy from duke, ever as a rook.
as the typical sentiment of duke players who are big's.
outside of the undersized Elton brand is they never materialize.
right now, embiid is on steadly incline, to ramp up.
whole, alternatively boozer at duke.
plus, boozer in his early pro years at cleveland.
is playing above and beyond what embiid is now, as well.
on top of the fact, bron made boozer look like a low post halfset and transistion dog, as a rook.
right, now....
wiggs does not fortify or solidify embiid in any manner that bron did boozer.
plus, embiid is taller, than boozer.
in addition to the fact embiid is not immediately killing like boozer did, with bron as a rook.


plus, Wiggins has not made his two wings look like much better players.
like bron did for thug life one and two in Cleveland.


Wiggins si not close to bron.
nor, did bron have the issues you speak onas a rook.
I know I watched bron, since high school.
plus, bron and a lot of the high school to pro guys.
were all guys I intently knew were going to be what they were.
if they did not fall prey to piss poor coaching, and the low bball IQ gen aesthetics.
that have been apart of basketball, since 96.

do you mean the one who will be drafted high and make an immediate impact in the NBA.
or, just the best player in college, period?

most these dudes have never watched him play. they just look at box scores and assume because its college he should be averaging more points than Durant is dropping in the pros

these fools don't even know that Michael Jordan never averaged over 20ppg in 3 years of college ball


you are just making up false points of reference using stats..
you obviously never saw Michael.jordan in college.
plus, do not know the complextion of the games involving Jordan in college.
you really do not have the indepth knowledge to speak on this.

Of course I'm not comparing him 2 Paul George as a pro. I'm talking bout George as a college freshman. Why would I compare a college freshman to a all star nba player. It seems like your expectations of wiggings might be a lil unreasonable


regardless of where he went to school, or his age.
wiggs, is supposed to be at least Durant and Melo good as a freshie in college.
regardless of coaching, or whoever his teammates are.
so, trying to pull the environment and freshie card will not work to save face for wiggins.

According to who? Those 2 may be the best freshman to ever lace them up. You're holding him to impossible standards. That's why you're disappointed.

He is not the player that they are at that stage but doesn't mean he shouldn't be the first pick. Btw durant and melo were clearly better than anyone in this draft at the point they in

You know whats funny about all this is the Paul Pierce love over Andrew Wiggins........Wiggins is much better than PP in their freshman years:ufdup:

As a freshman, Pierce only averaged 11.9 ppg on 41.9 FG% and 30.4 3PT% while Wiggins is giving you 16.0 ppg on 44.7 FG% and 37.0 3PT% currently.


Why the revisionist history?:dwillhuh:


I should clarify,...
yet, you should be smart enough to ascertain.
my comparieon to pierce and Wiggins at Kansas.
is me, listing the incarnation of Pierce.
that was NBA ready and entering the draft.

since, Wiggins is a one and done guy.
he will get comparison, of past players when they were in similar draft status.

which is also,....
why Wiggins not performing is disturbing, as well.
as, wiggs is nowhere near what the past last Gen college NBa ready guys were.
when, it was obvious they were ready and up for draft status.
Wiggins, should be further along than wade entering the tournie.
where he made his name, to warrant his status in the draft.
Wiggins , should be further along than granger, Melo, Durant, rose and others.
right now, from watching him play.
he is no better than rod Carney.
a great dunker in dunk competition.
plus, doing okay because of size,...
yet, no real explosion in games to get behind the hype.
plus, believe he is the best player on the draft.
I like dunk contest.
yet, I and others on the Wiggins bandwagon.
are not there to see a great dunk contestant in the NBA.
then, no real actualization as a pro with high draft status.
