What's new

don't believe the hype - only Jabari parker is the sure thing

for me, the similarities between wiggins and harrison barnes are pretty glaring. parker is carmelo.

Show me a vid of Lebron from high school with his head above the rim with a perfect camera angle like you want to see from Wiggins.

IMO wiggins ceiling is tmac - but that's big if. to be like tmac, he has to have serious handle, his offense needs to take off considerably, and must improve playmaking ability. remember tmac took that giant leap after 4th year. i can see wiggins showing potential in first 3 year. he won't be able to produce immediately. but i can see him getting better and better like tmac. but again, that's a big assumption.

his floor is probably igoudala. and that's not a bad floor.

i never once said bron had 44 inch vertical. IMO, bron's vert was most likely 40-42 inch at his peak.

at 255lb? many do believe he noticebly lost hop since 09 season.

bron is a total package when it comes to pure athleticism.

anyway - i also don't believe bron is a full 6ft 8. he was measured at 6ft 7 1/4 at 18, but there is no evidence of him growing taller. i carefully compared every pictures he has taken at olympics(legit standing shots), and he is clearly shorter than tayshun prince, boozer, blake. and 6ft 9 KD towers over bron.

but i do believe bron's playing weight is 255lb ish.

as far as wiggins - i have no idea how tall he is. last report says he grew an inch and now he is full 6ft 8. i can only go by the draft measurement. i would have to wait.

Those are all nba games brah... they have camera everywhere so its easy to get good angles.

Show a high school one of lebron

If wiggins had played his high school games in nba arenas with nba production (camera crews and whatnot) then there would be great angles of vids with his head above the rim too
 
Why does Wiggins need to have his head above the rim to prove he's as athletic as LeBron if Lebron himself can't do it? Cause he weighs less? Yeah, that's why I said show me a vid of him doing it in high school when they were closer to the same weight.

bron was 245lb when he entered in NBA as 18 year old. talk about a man child.

wiggins is 200lb right now and he is 18.

same weight? lol

and i just showed you Miami Heat bron's head at the rim level. most would agree bron lost a step.
 
and this is what legit 44 inch vertical looks like. dude is 5ft 9 1/2 vertical trainer

Was he really 245 lbs doe? I'd have to see it for myself. Don't trust those weight machines.

i have no reasons not to believe it. and his body fat was ridiculous at 6.7%. just nothing but a pure horse meat. right now he is at 255lb. even lower body fat, and just 10lb of naturally gained muscle.
 
His. Vertical. Has. Been. Measured.

End of discussion.

randy moss was said to measured and his vert is supposed to be 48 inch.

like i said, i don't believe everything they say. deion sanders supposedly ran 4.1 40 dash.


many believe MJ's vert was 48 inch. MJ vert was most likely 42-44inch.



if i had to guess, wiggins would be somewhere between 38-42 inch max vert. that's impressive. if he really is 44 inch guy then i'll be madly impressed. no matter what happens, i think he will be a top 4 pick for sure. just too much hype, and too much potential.
