Holy sh*t, wasn't Ender's real name Andrew and he got the nickname Ender from his little sister mispronouncing his name? Was Wiggins named after that character? Though I highly doubt it, that would be awesome.

Thanks, TZ!

Wrong
sperm carries 50% DNA.. the egg which was inseminated by his father, existed inside his mother prior.
erego
Mother.. or we can base it off Birth which again infers mother.

Just saying the OP's username is the definition of whats wrong with basketball "internet" fans. Clearly Canadian but was probably one of those lames jumping and cheering when Lin beat Toronto.

The Brow is going to impact the game on the defensive side of things like only a handful of players can. Big men who have that kind of impact on defense are hard to pass up for a small forward. Davis is also one of those big men, like Howard and Griffin, who dunk every time they get the chance. That's going to be one high percentage shot in the next couple years, if not immediately. Wiggins may be great, but Davis would be taken ahead of him any day. Just my opinion.
Wiggins is widely considered to be a better prospect than Davis ever was.

Re: andrew wiggins = our canadian hope
It would be so awesome if this kid lived up to all the potential, represented Canada and played for the Raptors. It would have to be the dream scenario for MLSE and the NBA. But it looks like we won't even be tanking at that point to be in a position to get him, probably still on the treadmill fighiting between those 6-10 spots.

This is why we don't deserve nice things here in Toronto.

Even so... No loyalty. Loyalty over everything ....These kids bandwagon anything that has a slight comparison to them self. The internet 101.
It's like being born to a mother, then finding a women who has the same color hair as you and calling that women your mother instead.

Re: andrew wiggins = our canadian hope
Think Hunger Games.
Think Harry Potter.
In 1977 Orson Scott Card wrote a short story called Enders Game. He wanted to do more so he wrote the full book in the easy reading style of the above books. The books after become more involved (Adult reading) with a "shadow line" and now has I think over a dozen books plus comic books ect...
Andrew Wiggins is the hope of saving man kind some day.
Nick named Ender given by his older sister Val when she was young because she couldn't say Andrew.
The movie comes out this year.
The pressure of a nick name like Ender is already there.

Is this a bit you guys working on, or are you serious? I freaking hate Lin, but that being said, there is nothing wrong with liking a player from another team. Also, I believe OP is Asian female, so you know, give it a break...

Whole interview and never asks him if he'd like to play for the raptors.



Props TZ!

haha i know right, wouldn't be surprised though. Had so many random talks with strangers about ball and a surprising amount know realgm. For example today, I called cogeco and the dude tells me, why do you really want TSN2 so badly? I told him that I was weird and enjoyed watching the raptors... he then asked me "I love the raptors, do you know realgm?"
He told me that he just lurks on the site but the funny bit was that he called the Raptors realgm base "pretty smart." I had a good laugh.

thanks sh00n
