Rick Barnes is one of the very worst coaches of all time. Dead serious.

Oh good grief...did somebody in here say Barnes was a good coach?

Nobody has squandered more talent than that man. Well maybe Roy Williams, but it's pretty damn close.
 
Gotta be honest. After watching the Wiggins highlights in his game against Pitt State, I am not really impressed with his on court demeanor and poise. Maybe it's unfair but I expected more. The way he carries himself... something seems off about it... there is no leadership, no poise. He is just kind of there. Kind of reminds me of Joe Johnson. I think Jabari Parker has a big edge in this department. I understand that it is unfair of me to expect so much out of Wiggins, him being 18 and all, and perhaps my expectations are just a product of the hype. If I am a GM in the NBA, Not sure I take Wiggins #1 until I see Wiggins with more poise and competitive fire. I didn't see a moment, a flash, a sparkle of killer instinct. He's young, I know, but I want to see that at some point this year.

I put it down to his coach - he had a much better demeanour during the Hoop Summit game.


He should have been coached by Tom Crean (He coached DWade, Oladipo).

God
 
This gives a better look at Wiggins' game than a normal highlight mix, imo.

His play reminded me a lot more of our favorite North Carolina alumni than LBJ.
