BB03 was going overboard about Wiggins on here for a time. I scraped up these gems.

I think Wiggins is a top 15 player ever, as I've said countless times.

Minny had to keep him, but he's not as good as his stats show. Really inefficient and a terrible defender. Not a fan of his game. He can still improve, for sure. One really good thing about him, though, is his availability. He doesn't miss games. He has missed 1 in three years.

For perspective on banging on this deal:

Joel Embiid has scored 660 NBA points. Wiggins is over 5K.

Even with security against injuries, its hard to call one a significantly worse deal than the other.

Minnesota should have traded him.

He has the talent and attributes to be a top 15 all-time player, performed well first 3 years in the association it’s logical to say
