    Default Wolves shopping Wiggins

    I said a couple years back before he was drafted he was the next Melo... An inefficient chucker who could play defense, but won't.

    Here we are.

    Dude made sure to get paid before becoming a lazy piece of shit, at least. Solid planning on his part.

    He's been bad his entire career and that contract was stupid at the time.

    Not sure who is taking him.

    They'd have to give up assets to get a team to even consider taking him.

    That's a perfect comparison.

    Whoever trades for Wiggins, that's what they're getting.
    No, it isn't even close.

    I've always been anti-Melo...Wiggins hasn't done anything to even remotely be in his league as a player.

    Just, stop...

    Melo was full of potential the vast majority of which he realized which is why he’s an all-time great player. we are just in an age of extremes where everyone who doesn’t retire in the conversation for the greatest of all time gets treated like they were actually bad at basketball.

    Melo, Dwight Howard, Nique, Mitch Richmond, Vince carter....

    These are your garden variety nba legends. These are the non GOAT types who are still absolute all timers far as accomplishments and the only reason people don’t think so is because the only legends who’s resume they know are top 5-10 types.

    Carmelo had a hell of a career. There are very few people who were so talented a HOF career like his is a letdown.

    Melo wasn’t one of them.

    Melo was marginally more talented than Glen Rice, Jamal Mashburn, or Glenn Robinson. And he got what he could from it. He’s just about exactly where he should be. Somewhere in the wing of the HOF with Alex English, Adrian Dantley VC and maybe George Gervin and Nique when they feel like stopping by.

    He was never supposed to be with Jordan or Doctor J or whoever.

    He was a great scorer. I don’t know what else he was supposed to be.

    He’s going to the HOF for it. Is everyone without their own wing of the hall a letdown?

    Imagine scoring more than Jerry west, being a 10 time all star, and sitting in your HOF induction while some guy writes an article about someone he suggests is unimpressive essentially being the same thing you were.

    No, it's an absolutely garbage comparison.

    Shitty teammate and a career loser is more descriptive of CP0.
