Horrible extension imo. Wiggins is a local guy and all, but his NBA game has been really disappointing so far. Doesn't play a lick of defence and is basically a glorified high-usage chucker on offence. Of course, I got no right to talk considering we gave DeRozan that extension, but it's crazy that players who do nothing except take a lot of shots are getting $150+ million deals.

Wolves probably hoping that he develops other areas of his game though, but there's no motivation for him now considering they're already paying him up front lol.

I don't know Jay. Questionable timing to give him max.. for sure. I figured they would wait and see how he does it with Butler and other winning pieces. :-?

I haven't followed Wiggins that closely, but considering the fact that he's only 22, I guess you could be dealing with a lot worse than maxing out Wiggins... I mean he's got all the tools to be a great player.

Like I don't see Kyrie becoming a good defender going forward.. like at all.. but I can see Wiggins holding his own at some point.. so this talk about making sure that he'll commit to working hard, though laughable, has some merit. Some guys need to hear it, and those guys are probably never going to be super star players, but I'd still put Wiggins in an all-star potential category.

We'll see though.. glad it's not us giving him a 150 million contract. :dontknow:

I don't get how Wiggins gets a bad rep but Booker gets the benefit of the doubt as a future All Star. They have the same deficiencies but Wiggins is the better athlete, currently better scorer with prominent wing length. Unless Book can play the 1 I'm missing something

Hope Knicks get Hartenstein in trade and he becomes real good so we can have the Ryno-Unicorn international line-ups and Porkfingaz just turns heel cause he feels like it

1st pick vs 13th pick. Different expectations, a lot of people thought Wiggins was the 2nd coming, or I guess 3rd coming... :noway:

Yea' Wiggins hype was otherworldly but he gets an awful lot of criticism for a 22 yo that averaged 24 as a second option. I would hesitate to give him a max with Towns on board as a top priority as well tho tbh. I'd wait to see how he played as a third option with someone like Butler on board before re-signing
