General discussion about a player's skills and potential isn't pointless, attempting to make direct one-to-one comparisons is. You keep making he point about college stats being situational and skewed. Guess what, the same is true of the NBA! How can you make these narrow, specific projections...
It's not fun though, it's stupid and pointless. How else do you suggest we project Wiggins ability as a pro aside from looking at his performance in college? I can say that to me, he looks like a very good driver, great at drawing fouls, good shooter with fine mechanics, great defensive impact...
This is exactly the type of comment that prevents reasonable discourse on this site. "Pull the cape out"? Grow the **** up man, I wasn't literally saying you were the one hyping him up, I was making a general point about amateur spectators making proclamations about prospects based on <10 hours...
Yeah, and that hype was blown up due to the media and internet commenters like yourself. People are reacting to hype they themselves propagated. Do you not see the problem there? It's not like Wiggins came out and declared himself the next Lebron. I also think people have a tenuous at best...
I think Wiggins is the only player who can score 41 (and have an all around game-changing impact like he did in that second half, since I know most people weren't actually watching) and people will spend more words finding criticisms than praise. I heard ESPN spend 5 minutes talking about how...
Naturally your new phone that was designed hand in hand with the new operating system is going to get better battery life than an old phone being updated. I'd probably say the newness factor is more important, especially if you overcharge your phone by leaving it plugged in all night (like most...
Did you watch this Summer League? The guy still can't catch and finish consistently, let alone hit that mid range jumper that Ibaka keeps improving. I'm not even a big Ibaka fan but this seems crazy.
How is my description of why I (let me repeat I I I) LIKE this second half of this season in any way a comment on ANYONE else's enjoyment of the show? People take things way too ******g personally on the Internet.
I wasn't going to respond again since obviously no one in here can handle any sort of criticism towards their favorite show, which is fine I guess, but I take offense to being called a troll for offering an opinion. Plus I said I'm enjoying the second half because its tense, how the hell is that...
I'm with you, this is definitely my least favorite season. The momentum of the story seemed to peak with the Gus plotline, which built for more than 2 whole seasons, and then the 5th has seemed like an addendum. Not a fan of the first half of 5 in particular, this second half has been better...
