Wiggins..

Never seen him play huh?

It drives me crazy to watch Kansas games. They stick Wiggins out on the three point line and they just throw the ball around until they finally get bored and shoot the ball. I've seen Kansas play 10 times this year and at times Wiggins can be exciting, but he's not a sure thing to tear up the NBA.

You made it seem that you thought all wiggins points come from alley oop dunks.

I have seen ALOT of his points come on three point shots, long twos, floaters, free throws, step backs, post ups, put backs, runners, etc.

I think he will be able to do more than just alley oop dunks
 
My biggest issue with Wiggins' last game was that he didn't shoot enough. I want him to shoot at least 14 times per game. I'd much, much rather have a 1/14 night than a 1/6 or whatever he did.
 
Wiggins will be fine. He just needs to work on his handle and his body a bit to bring his athleticism fully into play. Then he'll be almost impossible to guard. He's still #1 imo.
 
Yeah, the same guy that scored 41 points on 18 FGA.

(he actually had 41 points on 15 FGA before missing his last 3)

Okay, we've seen the worst and we've seen the best. Now let's look at what really matters - the entire season. He's 6'8" - 44% FGs, 34% 3pt, 6 rebs, 1.5 assists, 2.3 TOs. Not terrible, but certainly not earth shattering either. Pretty mediocre, bordering on below average for somebody looking to make an impact in the NBA.
Don't get me wrong here - I'd probably still take Wiggins first. There seems to be something about him that goes beyond what he did this year, unlike a guy like Barnes who was underwhelming as a freshman. Just thought I'd take the stat discussion full circle.

This is what is so tough about this draft. Do you take Carmello #1 (Parker) or do you take the guy who could be Hakeem or could be Odom (Embiid) or the guy who could be LeBron or could be Gay (Wiggins).

I'm still not sure I don't take Parker #1.
