who the hell said Wiggins ceiling= T-Mac's offense & Pippen's defense?

[ThemBombs]

first of all, do you even remember how good both of them were?

Scottie Pippen
8x All-Defensive first team FROM 1992-1999

how exactly can Wiggins develop into a fusion of these two? I simply don't see it

Because Wigginstans are universally acknowledged to be on crack.

One of Wiggins' weak point is his handle and distribution ability. McGrady was the point forward before LeBron existed.

Wiggins being an elite defender is a mythology of mystical proportions. He can't even play defense as well as Smart: http://deanondraft.com/2014/06/01/ma...eter-defender/

His rebounding, steal, block rates and defensive rating are merely average AMONG COLLEGE PLAYERS. Nothing points to elite defense. No, jumping high and running fast does not equate to great defense.

Pippen was the #1 vote getter for the all-Defensive team from 1994-1997. In 1994 he was #1 both in all-D votes and all-NBA votes.

No DPOY though

Jordan>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Pippen

Pippen on D I can see.

If he wants to.be T-Mac, he needs to put in work. 3 practices a day, 1000 makes. That sort of work.

When I watched the last Summer League game Grant Hill said something to the effect, "He he shoots the ball, it's almost as if he gets too high."

I do know some people said he barely has any rotation on the ball.

[tmacattack33]

He'll be a good defender.

I'm not sure he'll ever be a great offensive creator.

TMacs jumper was so freaking wet man.

Wish we had him without injuries as well as yao for once.

[Nowitness]

He is WAY better than that. More like T-Mac's defensive prowess and Pippen's offence.

Didn't Durant average less assists than Wiggins in college? All the while Wiggins had the 6th or 7th highest usage while Durant was the centerpiece of his college team? Now Durant just averaged 5 or 6 assists per game in the regular season.
Is it okay, or merely a natural assumption with his penetration ability, that he will collapse defenses and create for teammates in a more open NBA game?

Furthermore, Wiggins detractors love pointing out how raw his game is. It seems to be the one word that keeps coming up. It seems like you guys are the ones who haven't watched him play. Great spin move, great step back, solid jumper inside 16 feet, etc. He is actually quite skilled already, and will greatly benefit simply from working on his handle, one of the few things holding him back currently. Then again, Pippen was said to have a high dribble too, and look how he turned out.

It was ONE person who said that and he was ****ing trolling obviously. Jesus christ I swear to god this kid only gets hate because the Cavs drafted him.

Kid got hate WAY before the Cavs took him. But it is a good thing, haters only hate on talent, there aren't too many Kentavious Caldwell-Pope haters out there.

If you cannot see the potential in Wiggins you are simply a blind hater.

[TheReal Kendall]

That's basically saying Wiggins will be the GOAT

Cavs fans only noticing it now because the Cavs took him.

understandable, that is just like Millbuck hating him because he didn't fall to the Bucks, but lets be real, in a vacuum, no matter whose team he is on the kid is bringing energy and excitement to the league.
